After a challenging week, Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders publicly acknowledged his offensive line's significant improvement following a 28-9 victory over Colorado State. In the postgame press conference, Sanders brought all five starting offensive linemen to join him, commending their performance which allowed him to be sacked only once during the game. This was a stark contrast to the previous week's loss to Nebraska, where he was sacked six times. Sanders threw for 310 yards and four touchdowns, showcasing the effectiveness of the revamped offensive line, which also contributed to a solid rushing game. He emphasized the importance of unity within the team, countering media narratives that could divide them. Coach Deion Sanders also praised the offensive line, noting the need for recognition after their previous struggles.
