Shurmur is dealing with new players on offense, including starting quarterback, Kaidon Salter, who was brought in this offseason to compete with five-star freshman Julian Lewis for the QB1 job. Eventually, Coach Prime named the Liberty transfer as his son Shedeur Sanders' replacement.

Salter gave the Buffs an early lead in the first quarter, finding DeKalon Taylor with an eight-yard TD pass to put his team on the scoreboard. However, Georgia Tech responded quickly, leaving fans debating about who would emerge as the winner of this showdown.
