ESPN To Air Spring Football Game As Part Of Black & Gold Day

BOULDER—Colorado Football's spring football game as part of Black & Gold Day will air live on ESPN, the network announced Monday afternoon in conjunction with its plans for its Spring College Football Programming.

Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders first spring game will take place April 22 at 1 p.m. MT. The Buffs have already sold 35,000 tickets for the game and it will be the highest attended spring game in CU history. Tickets are still available but moving fast. Parking will be $10 and will be able to be purchased in advance soon.

Colorado's will be the only spring game that will air on the main ESPN network and one of only two along with National Champion Georgia (which will air on ESPN2) not on either ESPN+ or conference networks.

Also part of Black & Gold Day will be a Field Day presented by Children's Hospital of Colorado where there will be inflatables and other games for kids along with field day activities with student-athletes from other sports and an autograph session with current and former Buffs that played in the NFL. That will take place on Franklin Field from 10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.

The CU volleyball and soccer programs will also have spring games on April 22, both at 11 a.m. with the soccer game taking place at Kittredge Field and the volleyball match at the CU Events Center.

CU's annual Pro Day will take place Wednesday, March 15, and Coach Prime's first spring practice will take place Sunday, March 19.
