BOULDER, CO: April 22: Head football coach Deion Sanders enters Folsom Field before the University of Colorado spring football game on April 22, 2023. The video board on the south side of the stadium, seen in the upper left, will be replaced with a new, larger video board in 2024. Colorado athletic director Rick George announced Wednesday that construction will soon begin on a new video board on the south end of Folsom Field. The project will cost about $15 million.
CU said the new video board will be “more than five times the surface area of the old board.” It will be 130 feet wide by 36 feet high. The width of the new board will be about the same as the current ribbon board underneath the south video board. The currently video board is 32 feet by 28 feet. Much of the cost of the project will be for the steel infrastructure to support the new video board, which will include four new columns running from the bottom of the video board to the ground around the south side of the stadium.Punter Mark Vassett has put together a strong season in his first year as a Buffalo. The Louisville transfer is the busiest punter in the Pac-12, with a league-high 46 punts and he ranks fifth with a 44.3-yard average.
Vassett has been particularly good this year at pinning opponents deep, with 16 punts inside the 20-yard line and several inside the 10.
