College Football World Stunned by Stanford's Furious Rally, Win Over Colorado [Head Coach Deion Sanders]

If you went to bed at halftime of the Stanford-Colorado game Friday night, you're forgiven...The Colorado Buffaloes were hosing the visiting Stanford Cardinal, 29-0...There was little reason to expect that Stanford, losers of four straight, could flip the script in the second half...Final score: Stanford 46, Colorado 43 (2 OT)...It was the largest comeback in Stanford history and the largest blown lead in Colorado history.

I also turned off the oilers bills playoff game where the bill had the biggest comeback in history in the 2nd. Decades ago

Stunned? I dunno. Oregon showed the Buffs the difference between top drawer talent and bling.

Not Ready for Primetime? Maybe not.

Last night’s loss WAS “ “all about proud black men.” Hey, he’s going to live that 1960s nonsense for the positive stuff, he has to be equitable, right? New rules is new rules.

Yep to all. And maybe if he weren’t wearing a two-pound gold chain, he might not have under thrown his final pass of the game.

Another record for Deion:

Largest blown lead in Colorado history (program founded in 1890)

That is not just prime. It’s preem-o.

And he has 4 times as many wins as the team had last year. And they’re over 500 after 7 games, which they very much weren’t last year. You don’t from 1 win to the championship in 1 season. He has clearly turned the program around. But it also clearly still has a way to go.

The bottom line is the seeds are being planted.

Look at Kansas now. They stormed the field after they beat South Dakota a few years ago, and went 2-10 in Leipold’s first year.

But even then I could see the culture changing.

I turned off the Miami-Georgia Tech game, when I calculated that all Miami had to do was take a knee and run out the clock.

ESPN app

I think it will fun just to listen to the announcers in the 2nd half after kissing up to the buffs so much in the first half. The announcers are fine they just went kind of overboard and convinced me there was no reason to keep watching

It was a great game and very satisfying for this Stanford alum to watch the overhyped Buffs collapse. I give Sanders credit for reviving the program but he is arrogant, overconfident and was an ass to the players he inherited.

Anybody with two surviving brain cells had to know Neon Deon’s college career was going to be a short one.

And after the game, instead of taking the rap, he blamed his players.

Classy move, coach. I’m sure that was inspirational to your players.
