How are Shedeur Sanders and Co. looking ahead of the season?

The University of Colorado football team, led by Deion Sanders, had a promising start to the season but it has become a major disappointment, the team suffered their seventh defeat with a final score of 56-14, resulting in a losing record and eliminating the Buffaloes from contention for a bowl game. Colorado and Washington State were both at the bottom of the Pac-12 standings game last season, but the biggest disappointment was Shedeur’s performance.

Adding to the problem, Shedeur Sanders was the most struggling QB for the Colorado Buffs last season as Shedeur holds the record for being sacked 52 times, making him the most sacked quarterback in the nation. Due to a wrist injury, he also had to exit the game against Washington State.

Have an interesting take?

However, it seems Deion Sanders has been making major changes towards the team’s offense by bringing in transfers like WR Will Sheppard, RB Drelon Miller, Dallan Hayden, and Isaiah Augustave to strengthen the team offense side which was quite weak last year and also to protect his star player QB Shedeur Sanders. Coach Prime even worked on the team’s defense by adding Brandon Davis-Swain, Dayon Hayes, BJ Green, Quency Wiggins, and Warren Sapp, giving them an added boost. Can the Colorado Buffs secure a victory in their first game against North Dakota State, or is there room for improvement? What are your thoughts on it, do let us know in the comments.
