Colorado head coach Deion Sanders was honest about his team's struggles to open the 2025 season. When asked by reporters Tuesday if he would say the Buffaloes were underachieving to begin the year, Sanders agreed. Colorado currently sits at 2-3 with a record of 0-2 against Big 12 opponents. The Buffaloes are averaging 358.2 yards per game, the third-worst mark among all Big 12 schools. They're also giving up 404.8 yards per game on defense, the second-worst average in the conference.
