Deion Sanders’ Colorado Buffaloes were among the top stories early in the 2023 NCAA football season. They jumped out to a perfect 3-0 start, including a stunning season-opening win over the 2022 runner-up TCU Horned Frogs.
The Buffaloes lost nine of their final 12 games to finish 4-8. Nonetheless, year one of “Prime Time” was a modest success considering that Colorado won just a single game in the 2022 season.
There’s good reason to believe that Prime Time’s Buffaloes will be even better this year. For one, the offensive line will improve drastically with several newcomers arriving via the transfer portal, including Matthew Bedford and Kahlil Benson of Indiana and Tyler Johnson of Houston.
Shedeur Sanders was the most sacked quarterback in the country last year, but that shouldn’t be the case in 2024. On top of that, two-way superstar Travis Hunter will hopefully be healthy after missing three games with a lacerated liver.
Shedeur is projected to be one of the first quarterbacks taken in the 2025 NFL Draft. If he can build off last year’s surprising success, he might even be the first QB selected.
