Colorado football opens its 2026 season against Georgia Tech in Atlanta, a challenging opener without a doubt. On Friday, Yellow Jackets head coach Brent Key revealed some pertinent information regarding his roster heading into the Week 1 matchup against the Buffaloes.
Key told On3's Andy Staples that Alberto Mendoza, Heisman trophy winner and No. 1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza's brother, is Georgia Tech's projected starting quarterback.
The younger Mendoza is competing with a few others for the starting job, but is clearly the early favorite. Key notes that whoever starts at quarterback in Week 1 will be making their first college start, which should give the Colorado defense a major advantage.
