The Deion Sanders era of Colorado football started with a bang Saturday after the Buffaloes knocked off No. 17 TCU in Fort Worth, Texas.
Nobody could’ve seen this coming no matter how much hype was already out there.
The team handed Sanders a victory in his FBS coaching debut after Colorado entered the game as a three-touchdown underdog.
NFL and college football nationwide correspondent Annie Agar decided to kick the TCU Horned Frogs while they were already down with a spicy post on X.
The host at Bally Sports in Chicago since 2021 took to social media and posted herself posing in a white dress and cowboy boots while outside. In her caption, she made reference to TCU’s defense being blasted by Colorado.
“So much open field it’s like watching TCU’s defense.”

Shedeur Sanders knows all about that lack of defense as he threw for 510 yards with four touchdowns, the game-winner a 46-yard catch-and-run by freshman Dylan Edwards with under five minutes to play. Edwards caught three touchdowns.
Two-way starter Travis Hunter had 11 catches for 119 yards.
As a defensive back, he had one of the two interceptions that TCU’s Chandler Morris threw.
Hunter, Edwards, and Shedeur Sanders are among 87 new players at the program that had previously won only one game last season and has only two winning records since 2005.
With the potential to crack the AP rankings later this week, Sanders and the Buffaloes now return home to host longtime former conference foe Nebraska in Week 2. The schools last met in Week 2 of the 2019 season at Folsom Field in Boulder, Colorado, with the Buffaloes posting a 34-31 victory in overtime against the Cornhuskers.
