Week 3 of college football is in full swing! A total of 18 games are being held today, all over the country, yet all eyes are on Deion Sanders. He is currently at the helm of CU, as they prepare to clash with CO State following two resounding victories. The anticipation for this matchup is sky-high, fueled by the heated exchange of words between Sanders and his counterpart, HC Jay Norvell. In a pre-game showdown of words and wit, Norvell didn’t pull any punches. He not only critiqued Sanders’ fashion choices but also ventured into personal territory, referencing Sanders’ mother.
