Week 3 of college football is in full swing! A total of 18 games are being held today, all over the country, yet all eyes are on Deion Sanders. He is currently at the helm of CU, as they prepare to clash with CO State following two resounding victories. The anticipation for this matchup is sky-high, fueled by the heated exchange of words between Sanders and his counterpart, HC Jay Norvell. In a pre-game showdown of words and wit, Norvell didn’t pull any punches. He not only critiqued Sanders’ fashion choices but also ventured into personal territory, referencing Sanders’ mother.

As the stage was set for their face-off on Coach Prime’s home turf, Sanders made an appearance on FOX’s “Big Noon Kickoff” show, flanked by fervent fans. Inevitably, the feud between the coaches took center stage once more, with the topic of Sanders’ sunglasses adding another layer.

The show kicked off with a lighthearted atmosphere, with the co-hosts playfully unboxing and trying on the sunglasses that had caught Norvell’s critical eye. However, things took a serious turn when the discussion turned to Norvell’s earlier statement, in which he emphasized his habit of removing sunglasses and hats before addressing grown-ups, a practice instilled in him by his mother.

Sanders wasted no time in responding to Norvell’s comment, firmly stating, “You can’t talk about my Mama now.” He pointed out that Norvell had crossed a line by insinuating that Prime’s upbringing, guided by his mother, was somehow flawed. Sanders also made it clear that his mother’s influence would feature in his pre-game speech, underscoring the personal tension simmering between the two coaches.

During the interview, the 2x Super Bowl champion candidly shared how his mother had reacted to Norvell’s blatant comment, adding another layer of insight into the brewing rivalry. Sanders shared an intriguing tidbit about his mother’s reaction upon his return home. He added how his mother had a foot back, as she was ready to throw some hands.
