Saturday afternoon in Fort Worth was electric as Deion Sanders and his Colorado Buffaloes achieved a thrilling 45-42 victory against TCU to kick off their season. It was a day marked by impressive plays and standout performances, especially from Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter. 

Shedeur Sanders made his mark by setting records for the Colorado football program in passing yards, showcasing his elite skills, and making it a memorable day for Buffaloes fans.

The question on everyone’s minds was: What was the main takeaway from Colorado’s opener to the 2023 season? Simply put, the future looks incredibly bright for the Colorado Buffaloes. With Deion Sanders at the helm as their head coach, the potential for this team is boundless. The pre-game predictions and the naysayers had plenty expecting Colorado to falter. Many assumed they might be unprepared, with some even speculating about a lopsided 45-3 win for TCU.

But Deion and his squad proved the doubters wrong. The preparation, the grit, the determination – all these were evident in the way Colorado approached this matchup. What stood out was the skill on the field and the belief in their potential. The coaching prowess was evident as he instilled confidence in his young team, preparing them mentally and physically for the challenge ahead.

In the world of college football, belief is critical. A team could face setbacks, like a heavy defeat, and then be expected to bounce back the next week, perhaps against formidable opponents. But what we witnessed in Week 1 was a Colorado team that believed wholeheartedly in their mission throughout the offseason, and it manifested brilliantly on the field against TCU.

The 2023 season has kicked off with a bang for the Colorado Buffaloes. Under the leadership of Deion Sanders, this team has showcased resilience, talent, and a fiery spirit that promises thrilling matches ahead. The sky, indeed, is the limit for these Buffaloes.
