Deiondra Sanders and her famously fickle support for her brothers! After Colorado’s crushing 28-10 loss to Nebraska on September 8th, even the most loyal Buffs fans were left hanging their heads in dismay. The Cornhuskers’ dismantling of Coach Prime’s squad left a fresh wound in the world of college football, raising serious questions about Deion Sanders’ tactics heading into their next clash against the CSU Rams. And now, it seems even Deiondra—usually the loudest cheerleader for her family—has turned her attention elsewhere.

Known for fiercely defending her half-brothers, Shedeur and Shilo Sanders, Deiondra was uncharacteristically silent following Colorado’s defeat. Her social media, usually buzzing with praise for her father’s glories and her brothers’ performances, was notably quiet after the Buffs’ painful loss. While she hasn’t completely tuned out of the football world, her silence on the latest setback suggests she’s turning a blind eye to the Sanders boys for now.

Is Deiondra’s silence a reflection of the pressure mounting on her family, or is she just picking and choosing her moments of support? Either way, the absence of her usual vocal backing is making waves as Colorado looks to rebound and find their footing again.

Following up on this interesting development or rather the lack of it, Grady Jarrett, the defensive tackle for the Atlanta Falcons, set a new record in their game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. He passed John Abraham for the all-time lead in QB hits, and will now be etched in the Falcons’ history for a long time to come. In light of this massive achievement for her father’s former team, Deiondra posted about it on Instagram on 9th September and captioned it with 3 fire emojis. Deiondra is observing radio silence on the Colorado front at the moment but seems to be enjoying her regular dose of some good old-fashioned NFL games. On the other hand, Deion Sanders Jr., aka Bucky, is not staying quiet at all and is taking the heat all on the chin.

Bucky congratulates Nebraska for the outlandish win

It can be said without a doubt that Bucky is a lot more involved with the Colorado Buffaloes than his sister. He spends time with the team on a daily and releases footage from their training consistently. Bucky has been with the team in the best of their times and is now ensuring he’s sticking by them during this moment of crisis as well. The recently released video from the ‘Well Off Media Forever’ channel had a caption of “Colorado Gets Embarrassed By Nebraska: COMPLETELY EMBARRASSED”

In a now-viral video, the Nebraska players were seen playing Shedeur Sanders’, “Perfect Timing” song on full blast and mocking his iconic celebratory move by flexing their watches. This was done in response to Shedeur flexing his watch throughout all their wins in the 2023 season and this was the Cornhuskers’ way of taking revenge. Thus, this response from them after their game is meant all in the good spirit of the rivalry and this is what Bucky acknowledged as well. He took to Instagram, posted the video, and captioned it with, “Y’all deserve it. Turn up Nebraska. We would do the exact same thing to y’all.” Thus, he’s one sibling who won’t shy away from accepting the team’s flaws and is taking it proudly in his stride, in an attempt to motivate the team to do better in the coming few weeks.
