Was Colorado vs. 17 TCU the talk of college football this weekend. I’m being rhetorical.
In the beginning of the game, Colorado surprised critics and scored a touchdown. A touchdown some at the Athletic might recall? Yes, a touchdown.
It was 1 of 4 passing touchdowns by Shaddeur Sanders and after the game X users started posting comparison photos of him and Tom Brady. Sanders finished as one of the top week 1 quarterbacks in passing yards with 510. He and Travis Hunter ultimately held the roof down.
Hunter played a total of 141 snaps. So between offense (61) and defense (80), Hunter played to extremities and said after the game that he was not winded out. Talk about an unforeseen athlete of his generation.
He was not as productive on the defensive side but saved what could have been a game-sealing touchdown late in the third quarter for coach Deion Sanders and Colorado.
Critics said this team would win 1,2 or 3 games, if any, this season. Well, the Buffaloes check one down, more to come against ruthless opponents such as Oregon, USC, and final game, Utah.
Coach Prime has always been a winner, and he brought coordinators over who know how. It will ultimately come down to the pressure this team and Shaddeur Sanders can handle with this no longer being Jackson State or a non-Power 5 program.
