No. 21 Colorado is going to Texas Tech in a tie for second place in the Big 12 standings. The Buffaloes (6-2) are tied with No. 17 Iowa State, which was undefeated before its loss to Texas Tech last week.

When the University of Colorado announced its decision to hire Deion Sanders as its next head football coach, there was no shortage of critics. Sanders’ only college coaching experience was a three-year stop at Jackson State University.

Coming out of the bye week, Deion Sanders had plenty to say about his 21st-ranked Colorado Buffaloes and their promising season. The Buffaloes, sitting at 6-2 overall and 4-1 in Big 12 play, have gained considerable momentum as they move up in rankings and edge closer to the conference title race.
