BOULDER — Colorado's Deion "Coach Prime" Sanders made it clear Tuesday at his weekly press conference.
The Buffaloes are ready.
Ready for Saturday's 10 a.m. season opener against 17th-ranked TCU at Amon Carter Stadium (Fox). Ready for the near-100 degree heat forecast for Saturday in Fort Worth.
And perhaps most importantly, ready for the big stage.
That stage includes a national television audience, what is expected to be a sold-out TCU stadium, and the eyes of a college football nation eager to get the answer to one question:
Just how good can the team that underwent one of the most dramatic roster rebuilds in the modern history of college football be?
