Deion Sanders had a message for his critics after Colorado won its season debut 45-42 over TCU on Saturday.
Colorado developed several critics over the offseason. The Buffaloes made plenty of noise for their transfer portal approach and roster-building tactics. But the Buffaloes quieted those voices with a big win to open the season.
Shedeur Sanders passed for 510 yards and 4 touchdowns, while Travis Hunter played both ways, putting up 119 receiving yards and grabbing an interception on defense.
After Colorado won the game, Deion Sanders was interviewed by FOX’s Jenny Taft. He was sure to mention that he has been keeping track of his haters.
“We told you we coming. You thought we was joking, but guess what? We keep receipts,” Sanders said.
In other words, Coach Prime and the rest of the team have kept track of the negative comments.
Colorado is only 1-0 so far, but that was an impressive debut for their squad. They have Nebraska at home next, followed by Colorado State. Then they will begin the Pac-12 schedule.
It’s too early for Colorado to start celebrating that they have arrived, but that was a great start — especially for a team that went 1-11 last season and looked horrible.
