What went wrong with Shedeur Sanders’ play?

While the Memorial Stadium was expected to be decked up in the Black and Gold theme, it was all painted in red. The final score came down to 28-10. While the fans blindly trusted their QB Shedeur to gift them with a big win on Saturday night, it did not take them long to realize that September 7 was not that day. Deion is often spotted standing up for his son but after the second game of the season, Coach Prime too refused to be his hypeman on this occasion. During the press meet, he came up with a frustrated confession, “We came out and Shedeur did something very uncared of himself. Never makes a bad decision especially in that part of the field in which they got a pick six.”

But what went wrong with the QB? He got caught up in the enemy territory as the play happened on a first down deep. Shedeur was all geared up to telegraph his throw as far as the sideline. But when there is Cornhuskers DB Tommi Hill in the row, the Buffs QB should tread with caution. Hill then jumped the route and took the pigskin to the Nebraska house. With these, Deion’s stress level just hit new heights thinking about Shedeur’s future.  

Shedeur Sanders snubbed in latest mock

Right before the Colorado Buffaloes vs. Nebraska Cornhuskers big face-off, the PFF College had dropped a mock draft on September 6. This was enough to leave the Buffs fans’ heads reeling in disbelief. The list had top-10 picks for the 2025 NFL Draft. On running through their eyes, they did find the name of Travis Hunter.

However, the Buffs’ two-way star had been displaced from the top spot and now holds the No.4 position. While fans were still adjusting to the blow, what struck them like a lightning chord was not finding Shedeur. Maybe they might have thought that it just missed their sight, on running their eyes for the next time, their fear came to be true. Yes, Shedeur Sanders failed to find himself a place in the top-10 2025 NFL Draft picks as per the mock draft.

Until now it was only the Buffs haters who stripped off Shedeur Sanders. However, this time it seems that even dad Deion Sanders turned away his face from him. Coach Prime watching Dylan Raiola’s master-blaster feat might have tweaked his feelings about his son.
