The Colorado Buffaloes kick off their 2024 season on Thursday night against North Dakota State, a former FCS powerhouse. Although the Bison are still strong, they no longer dominate as they did in the 2010s when they won eight of 10 FCS national titles. Colorado, led by head coach Deion Sanders, improved last season but finished 4-8 after struggling in the trenches against Pac-12 opponents. Sanders addressed this by adding talent via the transfer portal, while his son, Shedeur Sanders, returns as quarterback after an impressive 2023 season.
North Dakota State, coming off an 11-4 season, is led by veteran QB Cam Miller, who threw for 2,688 yards and 19 touchdowns last year. The Bison reached the NCAA FCS Semifinal but lost a heartbreaking double-overtime game to Montana.
