Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes have quickly become one of the biggest storylines in college football. The Buffaloes are 8-2, fighting for a spot in the Big 12 Championship and a potential berth in the College Football Playoff.

With only two regular season games left on the schedule, some players have made a decision about their future. On Wednesday, it was announced that six Colorado players accepted invitations to play in the East-West Shrine Bowl on Jan. 30 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Following the announcement, Deion Sanders took to social media, relaying the Buffaloes' signature tagline.

"WE COMING," Deion Sanders said.

The six players include Shedeur Sanders, Shilo Sanders, Cam'Ron Silmon-Craig, Jimmy Horn Jr., LaJohntay Wester and Will Sheppard.

With six players committed to the East-West Shrine Bowl, Colorado has set the record for the most players to compete in the game in one season.

Before these Buffaloes stars get ready for the exhibition game, they will prepare for a Week 13 game against the Kansas Jayhawks (4-6). Colorado heads into the game against the Jayhawks as a 2.5-point favorite, per ESPN BET. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET on Fox.

Colorado then finishes the regular season Nov. 29 at home against Oklahoma State.
