Colorado's Deion Sanders

The Colorado Buffaloes (4-1, 2-0 Big 12) are gearing up to host the Kansas State Wildcats (4-1, 1-1 Big 12) in a pivotal matchup that could impact their conference title hopes. Head coach Deion Sanders emphasized that the team should not be surprised by their recent success, urging players to maintain their expectations and focus. Colorado's defense will be bolstered by the return of safety Shilo Sanders, who missed three games due to injury. The Buffaloes are on a three-game winning streak, thanks in part to an improved rushing attack and defense. Meanwhile, questions surrounding former player Dylan Edwards, now with Kansas State, have drawn attention, but Sanders maintains respect for him while focusing on the team as a whole. Colorado is currently a four-point underdog against the Wildcats, who feature an explosive offense led by quarterback Avery Johnson and running back Edwards.
