Deion Sanders, Colorado Stars Attend Nuggets vs Lakers Before Week 9 Matchup vs UCLA
UCLA faces off against Colorado's star-studded roster for the first time under their new head coach Deion Sanders this weekend.
Before their upcoming clash, Sanders, his son Shedeur and two-way player Travis Hunter stopped by Ball Arena to watch another LA franchise kick off the 2023-24 NBA season.
Lakers superstar Lebron James already acknowledged the job UCLA's opponents have done this year when it comes to revolutionizing college football.
The Buffaloes started undefeated but since their blowout loss to Oregon have gone through a rough patch.
Colorado held a 29-0 lead against the Stanford Cardinal but failed to close the deal in an embarrassing loss before their bye week.
The Bruins, meanwhile, just destroyed Stanford in their most recent game as they head into one of the most anticipated matchups of their 2023 season.
UCLA remains ranked despite two poor conference losses on the road but will enjoy some home cooking against Sanders' polarizing bunch.
It's unknown who will be the Bruins' starting quarterback but Ethan Garbers looked good against the Cardinal in a dominant win last week.
Dante Moore's starting job may be in jeopardy as a result of his teammate's excellence but Chip Kelly refused to name a signal caller for the important matchup.
Colorado's revival from a one-win program just a year ago has been nothing short of impressive but UCLA isn't interested in their fairy tale story.
On the fringes of the AP Top 25, a win for the Bruins would help their cause for an important bowl game in January.
Hunter's two-way ability and Heisman candidate Sanders will surely give UCLA problems all game long but Kelly's roster wants to make their statement.
The Buffaloes' stars may have watched LA lose on the hardwood but the Bruins will hope to change that result on the gridiron this weekend.
