Deion Sanders, head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes football team, has named Kaidon Salter as the starting quarterback for the 2025 season opener. Sanders emphasized choosing experience over youth for the position, with Salter expected to lead the team following the success of Shedeur Sanders, whose jersey was considered for retirement after a nine-win season. The Buffaloes are preparing to open their season on Friday night at Folsom Field against Georgia Tech, with rising expectations in Sanders' third year as head coach. The team has a new-look roster and is regarded as improved compared to last season. Notable developments include junior defensive lineman Arden Walker emerging as a key leader. Additionally, NFL legend Randy Moss visited the team ahead of the game to provide motivation and support. The Buffaloes will face Georgia Tech's quarterback Haynes King, who is expected to challenge Colorado's defense.
