Deion Sanders is renowned for keeping receipts, so will it be any different when facing the Rams? The CU has already kicked off their season with two consecutive victories, doubling their previous year’s performance, and heightening the anticipation for their upcoming bout. However, Colorado State Rams’ Head Coach, Jay Norvell, had a different idea and didn’t hold back from taking shots at Coach Prime.

Norvell criticized Sanders for his habit of wearing sunglasses and a hat during press conferences. He went on to emphasize that he always removes his hat and glasses as a sign of respect for the grown-ups, a lesson imparted by his mother.

Mentioning his mother made him uncomfortable, and he emphasized that they both come from different backgrounds, stating, “You can’t take that shot,” followed by, “That’s not one you want to take.
