Deion Sanders’ answer to who he th🍸inks is the best coach in college football shouldn’🦹t surprise anyone.
“Let me see a mirror so I♛ can 👍look at it,” Sanders
There are a l✃ot of things that you can say about Sanders, but someone who lacks confidence is not one of them.
And after three big wins to start out♓ his tenure leading the University of Colorado football program, it would be hard to completely argue he’s wrong.
The Buffaloes defeated Colorado State on Saturday night in a dramatic double-overtime vic♕tory that saw Shedeur Sanders — Deion Sanders’ son — an꧑d the offense orchestrate a late fourth-quarter drive to tie the game and force overtime.
“You think I’m gonna sit up here and tell you somebody else?” Sanders continued. “You think that’s the way I operate? That somebody else got that on me?”
While Sanders was inclined to say himself to the question, he was quick to mention his admirat🌄ion for Alabama head coach Nick Saban.&nbs🃏p;
“But I tell you this, I love and I adore and I respect and every time I do a commercial with Coach Saban, it’s a gift,” he said. “Just sitting in his presence and hearing him and throwing something else out there so I can hear his viewpoint on it. Because he’s forgotten more things than I may ever accomplish. So I’m a student looking up to this wonderful teacher saying, ‘Just throw me a crumb of what you know.’”
Sanders’ arrival at Colorado has turned the program into a must-watch, with a number of high-profile celebrities showing upও to Boulder, Colo. for Saturday’s Colorado-Colorado State showdown.
The Buffaloes have several tough opponents coming up in the comi💧ng weeks.
They’ll hit the road for meetings with No. 10 Oregon next Sat🦩urday and No. 5 USC the following week.
