The Denver Gold triumphed over the Oakland Invaders 22-12, fueled by Harry Sydney's impressive 81-yard rushing performance and a touchdown.
The Denver Gold were a USFL franchise from 1983 to 1985, playing at Mile High Stadium. Initially owned by Ron Blanding, the team aimed for fiscal responsibility, contrasting with the league's spending trends. Despite a strong fan base and a playoff appearance in 1985, financial challenges and the USFL's shift to a fall schedule led to a merger with the Jacksonville Bulls after the 1985 season, marking the end of the Denver Gold.
