University of Colorado football team led by Deion Sanders, it has turned into a major disappointment. The team lost its seventh game on Friday night with a final score of 56-14, creating a losing record and ensuring that the Buffaloes will not play in a bowl game.
Colorado and Washington State entered Friday night's game tied for last place in the Pac-12, and Washington State obliterated Colorado 56-14, proving Colorado is the worst team in the conference.
Sanders said the team is falling short of what it is capable of. He said “that’s the part that's difficult to swallow”. «This is really disappointing because we had high expectations here.»
To make matters worse, Sanders' son, Shedeur Sanders, is the team's starting quarterback and has had a particularly difficult season. Shedeur has been sacked 52 times, making him the nation's most sacked quarterback. He suffered a wrist injury and had to leave a recent game against Washington State.
«He had some numbness in his hand and couldn't really grip the ball,» Sanders told reporters. «But then he got rolled up on the second hit, so we didn't send him out again.»
Colorado has struggled with a 1-7 record since winning the first three games of the season. The team's inability to meet the high expectations placed on them has been raised as a result of their poor performance.
With the season coming to an end, Colorado's final game against No. 22 Utah will be the final chapter. The disappointing turn of events has given Sanders and the Buffaloes plenty to think about as they regroup and plan for future seasons.
