  "account": "In a thrilling opener, Colorado edged out Georgia Tech 14-13 thanks to a last-second blocked field goal by Boo Carter. Coach Deion Sanders' team had taken the lead on Charlie Williams' 20-yard touchdown reception with 37 seconds left. Georgia Tech, in their first start as quarterback after transferring from Indiana, had a chance to tie the game when Alberto Mendoza completed a 42-yard pass to Dalen Penson. However, Carter's desperate block thwarted the Yellow Jackets' hopes. Mendoza, the brother of the 2025 Heisman Trophy winner Alberto Mendoza, put together 17 completions on 23 passes for 237 yards in his first game back. Colorado held Tech to just 288 total yards.",
