The college football season-opener met fan and expert expectations, delivering thrilling outcomes. Amidst speculation surrounding Deion Sanders‘ unconventional coaching methods at Colorado, he remained resolute in his approach. However, he also kept receipts about the naysayers who pointed fingers at his decisions.

CU kicked off their season with a stunning upset against TCU, with Sanders’ son, Shedeur, emerging as a star of the spectacle. Coach Prime wasted no time in the press conference that followed, openly challenging reporters, including ESPN’s Ed Werder, whose words apparently bothered Colorado’s godfather.

Deion Sanders only had three words for the reporter!

The CU Buffaloes delivered a stellar performance against their opponent, securing a remarkable 45-42 victory. A team that had only managed one win the previous year now began the season in style, with Shedeur setting a historical record of 510 yards. Despite analysts and projections placing CU at the bottom of the Pac-12 list, Sanders defied expectations by defeating last year’s championship contender.

During the post-game interview, Coach Prime declined to respond to an ESPN reporter, Werder’s questions. Instead, the former NFL star repeatedly challenged him, asking, “Do you believe now?” to which the reporter replied, “In what?” Prime then added, “I read through that bull-junk you wrote.”

While Sanders showed no mercy to his detractors, ESPN’s Werder chose the high road to express his sentiments following the interview altercation.

Following the triumphant victory, Coach Prime took to his Twitter account, now known as ‘X,’ to share a heartwarming picture with his son, accompanied by a message celebrating Shedeur’s remarkable record and Prime’s debut. In response, Werder retweeted the post, acknowledging that Saturday marked a pivotal day in Sanders’ life, both as a coach and a father. He congratulated the former NFL star and expressed how mesmerizing the showdown had been to witness.

Notably, Travis Hunter, another transfer from Sanders’ former college, Jackson State, delivered an outstanding performance by excelling in both offense and defense, boasting 11 catches and a crucial interception.

The excitement in the college football scene continues to mount, with Sanders’ victory signaling just the beginning. Sanders stayed committed to his goal, even during a challenging surgery for a blood clot in his groin. He still constantly showed up to the practices, a testament to his commitments. What began as a surgery has transformed into a remarkable rescue mission, propelling the team to great heights. Upcoming matches against Nebraska on September 9th and CO State on the 17th have fans eagerly anticipating more captivating moments in this unfolding story.
