Hop on the Colorado bandwagon while there is still room because the Buffaloes look like they are back with a vengeance.
We knew things were going to be different in the Coach Prime era after new head coach Deion Sanders completely overhauled the roster and brought in an entirely new level of confidence, but nobody could have possibly imagine how impressive they would have looked in their season opener on Saturday. And that is probably going to send the hype machine into overdrive.
They marched into TCU as significant underdogs and knocked off last year’s College Football Playoff runner up with a thrilling 45-42 win. The game was highlighted by big plays and staggering individual performances by two-way player (WR and CB) Travis Hunter and quarterback Shedeur Sanders (Deion’s son).
After the win, (Deion) Sanders issued a statement to the rest of college football that the Buffaloes are coming, that they heard the doubters, and that they kept the receipts.
