Our friends at Buffaloes Wire are the talk of the nation in college football. Colorado and Deion Sanders continue to earn lavish praise for their immediate and successful makeover of what was an atrocious team one year ago.
Buffaloes Wire’s Jack Carlough wrote the following after CU’s win over Nebraska on Saturday, which moved the Buffs to 2-0:
“Two weeks in and No. 22 Colorado has already doubled its win total from last season. Entering Saturday as a slim favorite over rival Nebraska, the Buffaloes sent the Cornhuskers packing with a 36-14 onslaught in head coach Deion Sanders’ Folsom Field debut.
“Much like last week, Colorado’s performance was far from perfect, but it was still darn impressive once again. The national buzz around this team should only continue to grow, too, as Coach Prime continues to prove that his Buffs are more than just talk.”
