After Colorado nearly upset No. 8 USC on Saturday, Buffaloes head coach Deion Sanders doubled down on what’s happening with his program’s renaissance.
Sanders has been saying all season long that he’s been “keeping the receipts” on people who doubted that Colorado would be successful this season.
After Saturday’s game, he was ready to question anyone who he says can’t see that the program is going to be a force to be reckoned with this season and beyond.
In a very direct comment to anyone who still thinks that Colorado won’t soon or ever be a top contender, the coach says they’ve got another thing coming.
"If you can't see what's coming with CU football, you've lost your mind. You're just a flat-out hater if you can't see what's going on and what's going to transpire… Something's wrong with you."- Deion Sanders

“If you can’t see what’s coming with CU football, you’ve lost your mind,” Sanders said in his postgame presser. “You’re just a flat-out hater if you can’t see what’s going on and what’s going to transpire over the next several months. Something’s wrong with you.”
While Colorado probably won’t push for a College Football Playoff spot this year, it’s looking extremely possible that the team will earn a bowl game and could build off that success for much more in 2024.
For Sanders, anyone who can’t see the progress the team has made and will continue to make isn’t seeing the picture clearly.
