There has been a buzz around the Colorado Buffaloes football program ever since Deion Sanders took over as coach. This buzz didn’t translate into too many wins on the field in Coach Prime’s first year as the Buffaloes lost eight of their last nine games and finished with a record of 4-8. Granted, this was off the heels of a 1-11 season, but it left fans wanting more after a 3-0 start. 

The Buffaloes took a major leap forward in 2024. Colorado upped their win total from four to nine, finishing the regular season with a record of 9-3 in their first season back in the Big-12 conference. They earned a berth in the Alamo Bowl, where they lost to the BYU Cougars.

Colorado is losing it’s two best players from the past couple seasons to the NFL in reigning 2024 Heisman trophy winner Travis Hunter and 2024 Big-12 Offensive Player of the Year Shedeur Sanders. How will Deion Sanders do in his first season in Boulder without these two key pieces? There will be a packed stadium eager to find out. 

Colorado will once again be relying heavily on the transfer portal. At quarterback, Sanders will turn to Liberty Flames transfer, Kaidon Salter.
