Deion Sanders proposes NFL-style format for college spring games

News summary

Deion Sanders, head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes, is proposing a revolutionary change to college football's spring games by suggesting teams play against each other instead of the traditional intra-squad scrimmage format. He believes that matching up against another team would enhance competition and provide better evaluation opportunities for coaches and players. Sanders' vision draws inspiration from NFL practices, where teams engage in joint training sessions before preseason games. However, this idea faces obstacles, as the NCAA currently prohibits such matchups during spring practices. Despite some schools moving away from traditional spring games due to concerns over player injuries and scouting risks, Sanders remains optimistic about revitalizing the event to keep it relevant and engaging for fans. Colorado's spring game is scheduled for April 19 and will be broadcast on ESPN2.
