For Deion, Hunter and CU, a solid season, some fingers crossed and thoughts of what might have been
Associated PressBOULDER, Colo. — In the days before the playoffs became the goal in college football, and before people started choosing sides on whether Deion Sanders is good or bad for the sport, there wouldn’t have been much to pick apart about Colorado football this year. “We’ve exceeded all expectations, and I’m really happy where we are,” said Deion Sanders, whose team’s loss to Kansas last week put a dent in its playoff hopes. “This is the worst we’re going to be.” CU has been on a steady upward climb They have been far from perfect since Sanders said that, but he was right. The third loss — 37-21 to the Jayhawks last week in a game Sanders said went sideways because the Buffs “got intoxicated by the success” — might have been a dream-ender. If there’s no playoff, a bowl game awaits More likely is that the Buffs headline the most-watched Holiday Bowl ever, Hunter starts working on his Heisman acceptance speech, and then the waiting game begins to see whether the coach will follow him and his sons out of town.
