Deion Sanders expressed his discontent with Colorado’s 28-16 defeat against UCLA, marking the Buffaloes’ fourth loss in their previous five matches after commencing the 2023 season with three back-to-back victories.
In the loss at the Rose Bowl, Colorado’s offensive line failed to protect quarterback Shedeur Sanders, resulting in seven sacks, 13 knockdowns, and 17 hits. Sanders maintains his confidence that Colorado will reclaim its winning streak by the conclusion of the 2023 season, despite the team’s ongoing offensive challenges and a demanding schedule ahead.
Following the game against the UCLA Bruins at Rose Bowl, Deion Sanders, the head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes, departs the field. In a remarkable victory, UCLA ended up with a 28-16 win against Colorado.
During the postgame news conference on Saturday, Sanders expressed his desire to win and mentioned his familiarity with winning. We are going to be victorious and succeed. Please fasten your seatbelt and brace yourself, victory will be ours. You must witness the potential outcomes that could arise from the team we possess. We were only defeated once. The incident took place in Oregon. There was no way to win that situation. In all the other games, it was apparent how we had the potential to emerge victorious. We had the potential to accomplish it, thus it is referred to as hope in our perspective, and I am grateful and delighted for it.”
Colorado, with a record of 4-4, is just a couple of victories away from securing a spot in a postseason bowl game. Nevertheless, the Buffaloes have a few more games left on their schedule. They will be playing at home against Oregon State and Arizona. However, the season ends with two challenging away matches against Washington State and their ultimate game against Utah.
The Buffaloes last appeared in a bowl game in ’20, where they suffered a 55-23 defeat against Texas in the Alamo Bowl while being led by former head coach Karl Dorrell.
