Set against the stunning backdrop of the Flatiron Mountains in Boulder, Colorado, Folsom Field offers one of college football's most picturesque settings. Home to the Colorado Buffaloes since 1924, it’s famed for Ralphie, the live buffalo mascot who thunders across the field before games. The high altitude and breathtaking scenery provide a unique and often challenging environment for visiting teams. Folsom Field combines natural beauty with passionate Pac-12 football, creating an unforgettable and historic game-day experience.
