The Deion Sanders Era at Colorado: A Bowl Game Drought
Despite a promising start on Saturday, Colorado's football team, under the leadership of Deion Sanders, suffered their seventh loss of the season. This unfortunate streak means that the Buffaloes won't be participating in any bowl games this year.
The recent defeat to West Virginia, who managed to secure their own bowl eligibility, was a tough 29-22 loss for Colorado. It followed two devastating losses to Arizona and Utah, leaving the team with a record that's hard to recover from.
But here's where it gets controversial: despite these setbacks, Deion Sanders has a five-year, $54 million contract extension that keeps him at Colorado until 2029. Last year, the team had a successful 9-4 season, so the current losing streak is a stark contrast.
And this is the part most people miss: Colorado still has two more games to play this season, against Arizona State and Kansas State. While the Buffaloes won't be bowl-bound, these games could still provide an opportunity to end the season on a more positive note.
So, what do you think? Is Deion Sanders' contract extension a wise decision, or is it time for a change? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
