The Colorado Buffaloes dropped their first game since quarterback Shedeur Sanders and Heisman-winner Travis Hunter departed for the NFL, falling to Georgia Tech 27-20 on Friday to start the 2025 season.
The Buffaloes forced three turnovers in the first quarter, giving them beneficial field position, but only converted those turnovers into one touchdown. The game was in favor of Colorado early on, but Georgia Tech quickly took the lead in the second quarter on the heels of a dominant rushing attack, which saw them run for a total of 320 yards, including 156 yards from quarterback Haynes King.
