Colorado beats Georgia Tech in season opener
Colorado opened its season with a narrow win over Georgia Tech after a messy game in which both teams had trouble at times.
Colorado defeated Georgia Tech in its season opener on Thursday, giving Deion Sanders' team a 1-0 start after a close game in Boulder. The Buffaloes had to recover from uneven play to secure the result.
The game drew attention because Colorado entered the new season under Sanders with expectations around how quickly the team could settle in. According to reports from CBS Sports and Yahoo Sports, the Buffaloes were not sharp throughout but still found enough to edge Georgia Tech.
CBS Sports published betting previews before kickoff, while Yahoo Sports said Colorado's performance was far from polished but still included some encouraging stretches. The result leaves Georgia Tech with an opening loss and Colorado with an early conference-free win to begin the year.
The matchup was part of the first week of the college football season, with Colorado's opener offering an early test of Sanders' roster and Georgia Tech's road form. The teams now move on to the rest of their schedules after a game that was decided by execution rather than style.
