The Colorado Buffaloes recently suffered an ugly loss to the Kansas Jayhawks. This led head coach and former NFL star Deion Sanders to issue a serious reminder to the team moving forward.
In a significant setback for the Buffaloes, the team suffered a 37-21 defeat against the Jayhawks, severely impacting their hopes of reaching the Big 12 championship game. Kansas running back Devin Neal dominated the field, accumulating 207 rushing yards and scoring four total touchdowns, showcasing the team’s struggles against a powerful ground game. Colorado’s offense, which held possession for less than 20 minutes, could not keep pace with Kansas’s relentless attack.
Despite the loss, there were some bright spots for Colorado. Quarterback Shedeur Sanders passed for 266 yards and three touchdowns, demonstrating his ability to connect with his receivers under pressure. Travis Hunter also made a strong case for himself with 125 receiving yards and two touchdowns, continuing to solidify his Heisman candidacy. However, the overall performance of the team left much to be desired, especially on defense.
Kansas established control early in the game, quickly building a lead that Colorado struggled to overcome. The Buffaloes’ inability to stop Neal and the Kansas offense was evident, as they failed to contain critical plays and allowed the Jayhawks to dictate the tempo. Coach Deion Sanders expressed disappointment, noting that the team had opportunities to seize control but ultimately fell short.
As the game progressed, Colorado’s defense showed signs of weakness, particularly in the fourth quarter when crucial penalties and missed tackles compounded their problems. While the offensive line performed well early on, it faltered under pressure as the game wore on, leading to lost opportunities.
