Deion Sanders put the rest of the college football world on notice in his first game as Colorado coach.
Colorado upset TCU in one of the first college football games of the season Saturday, 45-42. Before that would go down, Sanders and his players had some extra added motivation handed to them on a silver platter before the game.
While out on the field inside Amon G. Carter Stadium, TCU fans were filing in and already rowdy as Deion and company were doing warmups.
Footage showed fans directing harsh language at Deion Sanders as he directed a kiss at them in response.
