On Saturday, the Colorado Buffaloes suffered their first-season loss to the rival Nebraska Cornhuskers. The game wasn’t particularly close, as the final score was 28-10, and quarterback Shedeur Sanders is already deflecting the blame.
In an interview after the game, he blamed his own offensive lineman a lot. “Of course, whenever you’re able to run the ball consistently, then that opens up the pass,” he told reporters after the game. “But you gotta understand what your team is good at. Why would we keep running the ball if we get in a situation where it’s a must get and we don’t get it?”

Sanders certainly might have a point, too, considering his stats didn’t match up to what he’s proven capable of.
He completed 23 of 38 passes for 244 yards, one touchdown and one interception. The big headline, though, was that he was sacked a total of five times. It can be hard to get into a groove when constant pressure gets through.
Sanders also wasn’t lying when mentioning the run game was practically nonexistent. The Buffaloes’ leading rusher was Dallan Hayden, who had 32 yards on five carries.
The Colorado Buffaloes And Shedeur Sanders Start Season 1-1
The Buffaloes started the season with a close 31-26 win against the North Dakota State Bison after an NDSU hail mary fell just short of the endzone.
Many weren’t convinced about Colorado’s ability to compete against higher-level opponents, which became apparent against Nebraska.
If Colorado wants to even consider making the playoffs, it will likely need a perfect season from here on out, and Shedeur Sanders will have to play at a Heisman level. If not, the Deion experiment could be very short-lived.
