The Colorado Buffaloes’ back-to-back victories have already become the talk of the town! In a remarkable contrast to last week’s narrow victory over TCU, the CU, under Deion Sanders‘ guidance, shone bright like a diamond. They’ve already doubled their wins from last year’s disappointing season. Just as in week 1, Shedeur Sanders once again stole the spotlight, delivering incredible touchdown passes that propelled the team to a commanding 22-point victory.

During the post-game interview, Shedeur stepped up to the podium to address several pressing matters looming over the team. He touched on a range of topics, particularly highlighting the unwavering presence of naysayers despite their triumphant performance.

During the post-game interview, a reporter from the Denver Post posed a question to the 21-year-old QB, inquiring about the statement he and the offense had made in their home opener. Shedeur, initially puzzled by the phrase, sought clarification, asking whether the reference was to the team or the people. Another person present chimed in, explaining that the reporter meant both the critics and the fans.

Without missing a beat, Shedeur responded, “Well, the critics, they’re gonna hate, regardless.” He went on to mention how naysayers had managed to find fault with the team even after their triumphant win against last year’s championship contender, TCU. Shedeur expressed his expectation that they would continue to face criticism, but he emphasized that they weren’t overly concerned and were focused on continual growth.

The offense struggled the first half tremendously, however, and they remained in the lead, no thanks to placekicker Jace Feely’s insane 31-yard field goal, propelling the team to a 13-0 lead. The offense found its footing in the second half, and Shedeur finished an impressive 32 of 42 for a total of 393 yards. He also scored two passing touchdowns and added a rushing touchdown to his tally. Notably, Xavier Weaver also became the star of the show, catching a total of 10 passes for 170 yards. This triumphant win has already put the team at the top of the Pac-12 and made Shedeur a strong Heisman contender in several experts eyes.
