Deion Sanders’ first season as the head football coach at the University of Colorado was a success. Although the Buffaloes lost eight of their last nine games after starting the year at 3-0, they won three more games in 2024 than in 2023 after overhauling the entire roster.
And, while no loss is a good loss, five of their eight losses were by seven points or less. That’s pretty good for a team that won just one game the year prior. Coach Prime’s team could have very easily finished at 9-3 instead of 4-8.
The inability to finish and lack of consistency will be the biggest focuses this year. Shedeur Sanders is back at quarterback with a brand-new offensive line. Travis Hunter Jr. is a monster on both sides of the ball. Most of the defense is stacked with veterans.
There is, once again, a lot of hype around the Buffaloes as they plays their first year in the Big 12 Conference. Perhaps a little bit too much?
Ticket prices for the 2024 college football season are crazy. They are almost certain to drop as Week 1 nears closer, but as of right now, the least expensive ticket to multiple games (including one on the road) are listed above $200.
Colorado football ticket prices are wild.
No matter where you look on the secondary market, all of the listed prices are about the same so we’re just going to use SeatGeek. Here are the cheapest tickets by game:
- North Dakota State at Colorado — $124
- Colorado at Nebraska — $183
- Baylor at Colorado — $217
- Colorado at UCF — $235
- Kansas State at Colorado — $177
- Colorado at Arizona — $171
- Cincinnati at Colorado — $221
- Colorado at Texas Tech — $115
- Utah at Colorado — $194
- Colorado at Kansas — $77
- Oklahoma State at Colorado — $132
The Buffaloes’ game in Orlando is the most expensive ticket as of this moment. There is no doubt that the Bounce House is going to be rocking, but at what cost?!
To sit in the outward most corner of the stadium will run you $235 as of right now. The least expensive ticket in the lower bowl is listed at $385. The most expensive ticket, in the fourth row right on the 50-yard-line is listed at $997.
This is pretty unprecedented for February. Deion Sanders moves the needle!
