Deion Sanders and Colorado will be hosting Nebraska in Week 2 for what is one of the most highly anticipated matchups of the 2023 season.Not only is it a rivalry game, but it also marks the first game that Deion Sanders will be coaching at Folsom Field. The anticipating is so high that ticket prices for the game are through the roof, and are costing more than other notable sporting events like the NBA and NHL playoffs, and even a mortgage in the state of Nebraska. I break down why fans are so excited, and why the rivalry feels extra spice this season.
07:47 Colorado to the Big 12 is picking up some major steam, with reports indicating that it could happen “soon”. I dive into what is going wring on the Pac-12’s side of things, and why the Big 12 is again being loud and making a push for the Buffs and four corner schools. I also dive into what the future of the Pac-12’s television deal could be if they do in fact reach one.
14:17 Lastly, I dive into the Colorado’s 2024 quarterback commit and former guest of the show, Danny O’Neil. The Indiana native was selected to participate in the Elite 11, which is something that only around 20 of the best high school quarterbacks get to do every year. I explain how this could help Danny improve his recruiting ranking, and also how much it will help him develop as a QB, as the event has produced some of the sport’s best signal callers throughout the years.
