Perhaps America's most discussed – and most controversial – college football team, what does Year 2 under Deion Sanders have in store for Colorado?
Love him or hate him, Deion Sanders has turned Colorado into a national talking point. After an offseason of unmatched hype and roster turnover, the Buffaloes turned in just a 4-8 season in 2023, albeit a marked improvement off their 1-11 season prior. In Year 2, Colorado eyes more improvement, returning a top QB in Sheduer Sanders and All-American in Travis Hunter. At the very least, Colorado will be another fascinating watch.
Rarely throughout the 90s would you find Colorado outside the AP Top 25; it finished ranked eight consecutive seasons, including four times inside the top five . After a hot 3-0 start that included wins over ranked TCU and 90s rival Nebraska, and a chippy thriller against in-state rival Colorado State, Colorado fell apart. Following a public week-long spat with Oregon, the Buffs were crushed, 42-6, leading to the famed "They're fighting for clicks" speech from Dan Lanning..
The running back room likely takes a step backwards after losing all four top rushers to the transfer portal. Ohio State transfer Dallan Hayden showed flashes in Columbus, but behind a line chok-full of NFL draft picks and all-conference selections. Liberty corner Preston Hodge secures the opposite corner position and Hunter is expected to move inside to a nickel corner position. Transfers from Oklahoma State and Pitt are likely Day 1 starters.
