In this story:


One of the best features of Folsom Field is the stunning views of the Flatirons from inside the stadium. It's a favorite on Deion Sanders' list as well. The Colorado Buffaloes head coach caught up with Michael Vick this week and talked about his experience in Boulder thus far. He took the former NFL QB outside his office for a one in a million view.

Sanders admitted that he sleeps in his office on Friday nights so he can wake up to see the sun spill over the Flatirons. For anyone who hasn't experienced a morning in Boulder, it's a true bucket list item for nature enthusiasts.

Vick was stunned by the unreal sights and stood there with Coach Prime in awe. The Atlanta Falcons legends traded stories before a taped interview for the NFL on FOX. Vick even joked that he could play for the Jets right now. He could get at least a couple of series and looked to be in better shape than his playing days.

Coach Prime talked about one of his idols growing up, Hall of Fame QB Doug Williams.“I was down the street from Doug, he was in Tampa, I was a [kid] in Ft Myers.” Sanders proclaimed. “Doug was everything to us, man.” He later revealed he played a little QB while in high school but gave it up to eventually become a Hall of Fame cornerback.

Colorado prepares for 23rd-ranked UCLA on Saturday, Oct. 28. A primetime affair with the Buffs and Bruins at 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC.
