Overview

  • Kickoff is Saturday at 8:15 p.m. MT on ESPN at Folsom Field, marking BYU’s Big 12 opener and Colorado’s second league game.
  • Deion Sanders dismissed a revenge narrative from last season’s 36-14 Alamo Bowl loss, praised Kalani Sitake, and called each week a proving ground.
  • Quarterback Kaidon Salter is coming off a 304-yard, three-TD passing performance with 86 rushing yards and a score in a 37-20 win over Wyoming.
  • Sanders said offensive linemen Jordan Seaton and Zy Crisler are expected to play, while the running back group remains unsettled; Colorado held late practices to match the night kickoff.
  • BYU enters 3-0 and ranked No. 25 after a 34-13 win at East Carolina behind freshman QB Bear Bachmeier (246 yards, 1 TD, rush TD) and RB LJ Martin’s third straight 100-yard game, with a defense that has allowed just 16 points and featured Evan Johnson’s two interceptions including a pick-six.
