Shannon Sharpe called it a gut-wrenching loss for the Buffaloes

According to Sharpe, the manner of the loss will sting more than anything else. He took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to voice those feelings. He called it an absolutely gut-wrenching loss.

Deion Sanders was left disappointed by his team’s complacency. Shedeur Sanders and Ashton Daniels were not the only ones to have great games. The quarterbacks threw five and four touchdowns, respectively, in the game. Xavier Weaver scored three touchdowns, two from passes by Sanders and one from a 14-yard rush. Elic Ayomanor scored three touchdowns via passes from Daniels for the Cardinal. Karty scored the field goal that tied the scores before the end of the second half.

One wonders how the Buffaloes bounce back from this loss. They next take on the UCLA Bruins. Shannon Sharpe, who spent 12 of his 14 seasons in the NFL with the Denver Broncos, has a soft spot for Colorado. Sanders? team lost their way after winning three of their first four games. The Buffaloes have improved under his stewardship, after posting 1-11 numbers last season. All that remains is to see if they can maintain the upward trajectory despite the bumps.
