Colorado’s home date with Texas Tech is landing in a pretty pricey spot on the market.
Fans hoping to get into Folsom Field for the Big 12 matchup are seeing secondary-market tickets start around the $100 range, with current listings sitting near $101 on TickPick and $109 on SeatGeek. Colorado’s official ticketing site has single-game tickets for the game starting around $131, while the Buffaloes website shows prices ranging from $100 to $303.
That makes the Red Raiders game one of the more expensive remaining home tickets on Colorado’s schedule, though not the priciest. Utah’s Oct. 17 visit is currently the most expensive of the bunch on SeatGeek, with tickets starting at $144. By contrast, Kansas State on Oct. 31 begins around $96, and the Houston and UCF games are both much easier on the wallet, each starting around $63.
The gap isn’t hard to explain. Texas Tech comes in ranked No. 11, and the game is set for a Saturday evening at Folsom Field. Colorado is also pairing the matchup with Homecoming and Stripe Out festivities, which the university has highlighted as part of its 2026 home schedule.
That combination tends to push demand - and resale prices - upward.
Of course, the cheapest listings only tell part of the story. The price fans actually pay can climb fast depending on where the seat is, with section, row and location all driving the number higher. Better seats will cost more, and prices can shift as the week goes on.
The bottom line is simple: if you want the cheapest possible entry into this one, plan on spending roughly $100 or more right now. If you want a better view, expect the market to climb well beyond that. For a ranked Big 12 opponent in Boulder, the current numbers show fans are paying a premium compared with several other Colorado home games - even if Texas Tech still isn’t the top-priced date on the slate.

Colorado Just Turned Baylor's QB Problem Into A Bigger Big 12 Story
Julian Lewis spent part of the Baylor game on the sideline after Colorado went to Isaac Wilson at quarterback, a move that instantly turned the Buffs most watched position into the biggest question hanging over the week. Wilson finished 12-of-25 for 156 yards and a touchdown, while Deion Sanders made clear afterward that Lewis is still very much in the mix and that the room has stayed supportive through the change.
Now Colorado is heading toward a bigger decision before Texas Tech, with Wilson, Lewis and Kaneal Sweetwyne all still in play. For a team trying to find its best offensive rhythm in the Big 12, the quarterback conversation is no longer just about one game or one player. It has become the kind of week-to-week choice that can shape how the rest of the season looks. [Read more 🡒]
Deion Sanders Is Facing A Colorado Conversation Fans Never Expected
Colorados early-season stumble has put Deion Sanders in the same uneasy conversation usually reserved for coaches on the hottest seats. The scrutiny around the Buffaloes is only growing after a rough stretch, and the broader picture around college football makes the moment feel even sharper, with other high-profile coaches such as Mike Locksley, Greg Schiano and Lincoln Riley also drawing increased pressure as losses pile up and tougher games loom.
For Sanders, the disappointment is not just about one result but about how quickly expectations can shift when momentum disappears. Colorado still has games ahead that will test whether the program can steady itself, and for a fan base that never expected this kind of discussion so soon, the bigger question is whether the season can be steered back before the noise around the job gets any louder.

Deion Sanders Tried An Unusual Fix For Colorados Cornerback Problem
Deion Sanders has been looking for answers on Colorados back end, and one of them has come in a form you do not see every day. Sanders said cornerback Cree Thomas was told to practice without gloves and wear mittens instead, a simple-sounding tweak meant to cut down on the grabbing penalties that have dogged him. Thomas has been one of the Buffaloes more frequently flagged players, but Sanders still pointed to his attitude and the way he has competed despite the issues.
The timing matters because Colorado is heading into its Big 12 home opener against Texas Tech, a program built around throwing the ball. With the Red Raiders bringing a passing attack that can stress a secondary, the Buffaloes are trying to clean up the kind of mistakes that can turn a close game fast. Sanders unusual approach underscores how much attention Colorado is putting on discipline at cornerback, where every extra tug can become a costly first down. [Read more 🡒]
