Since Deion Sanders returned to his coaching job, he hasn’t looked back, and neither has his team, the Colorado Buffaloes. Following two consecutive wins against TCU and Nebraska, Sanders has garnered an even larger fan base. However, along with the admiration of his fans, Sanders has also attracted negative and disrespectful remarks.

While it’s common to expect such comments from rivals after a game’s loss, this incident occurred two hours before kickoff, leading fans to speculate that it may have been intentional on the part of Nebraska’s coach, Matt Rhule. Both Rhule and Sanders are well-known figures in football history. But it seems that the two iconic figures have indeed sparked a controversial rivalry, as now Sanders has something to say in response.

Deion Sanders’ take on disrespectful remarks

The controversial incident unfolded just two hours before the kickoff between the Buffs and Cornhuskers at Folsom Field on Saturday. Nebraska Cornhuskers head coach Matt Rhule gathered his entire team on the Colorado Buffalo logo at the fifty-yard line for a meeting, a move that didn’t sit well with Sanders’ fans, sparking negative comments towards Nebraska’s coach. Later, Rhule clarified his intentions, stating that he never intended to disrespect his rivals, insisting it was unintentional.

During a recent press conference, Cowboys fame Sanders was asked for his perspective on the incident. In a composed manner, he responded, “That was unfortunate. I didn’t even know anything about it. They said they were praying in the middle of the field so it’s cool with me. I mean I’m happy if that’s what they were doing.”

While the Pro Football Hall of Fame was fine with the rival team’s gesture, Coach Prime’s son and Buffs star quarterback Shedeur Sanders were not pleased with it.

Did Deion Sanders’ son get angry with Nebraska?

During the Huskers’ presence on CU’s logo, Deion Sanders’ son Shedeur Sanders took action, disrupting their huddle. He didn’t merely step onto the field; he broke up the huddle and even flaunted his expensive watch to a specific Husker player who remained on the logo, perhaps suggesting that time was running out. Shedeur addressed this incident in a post-game press conference, stating, “It’s okay if a couple of players do it, it’s fine, you know, just enjoy the scenery … but when you have the whole team trying to disrespect it, I’m not going for that at all. I went in there and disrupted it.”

Shedeur’s decisive response earned him praise from many fans who admired how he managed his frustration while remaining loyal to his team. However, in response to Shedeur’s statement, Rhule later clarified that his team performs this ritual at every stadium, saying, “We go there, we pray for blessings. They came in. I asked Shedeur if he wanted to pray with us.”

While might only Rhule knows the full truth of the situation, one undeniable fact remains that Colorado defeated the Cornhuskers 36-14 in the much-anticipated game in Week 2 and is now preparing for their next game against CO State. As for Deion Sanders, he is loaded with a strategic plan for his young squad!
