TV, times and program Thursday

The college football season kicks off with a full weekend of action, with four top-25 teams making their debut appearance. Anticipation is high as Deion Sanders’ Colorado Buffaloes take on North Dakota State in primetime on Thursday.

Sanders made a huge impact on college football when he made the bold move to become the head coach at Colorado. After transferring to Boulder from Jackson State University, he signed more than 90 transfers, all of whom wanted to play under Coach Prime. Despite finishing the 2023 season with a 4-8 record, Colorado drew large crowds, including celebrities, and enjoyed strong television ratings. Now, onlookers are wondering if Coach Prime can repeat his success.

The college football season started off on a thrilling note as Florida State lost 24-21 to Georgia Tech in a thrilling Week 0 game. If this is just a glimpse of what’s to come, then you won’t want to miss a single game.
