Colorado fans who are getting all geeked up by what Deion Sanders has supposedly done might want to take a look at Nebraska football six years ago.
Far be it from me to tell Colorado Buffaloes fans that they shouldn’t get excited about Deion Sanders’ first season in Boulder. There’s certainly reason to be excited. He’s fed into that level of excitement and brought energy CU fans haven’t seen in quite a while.
But allow me, Buff fans, to caution you a bit. Because when I look at the things that Deion Sanders is saying and doing, I can’t help but see the similarities to when Nebraska football fans thought we’d found a similar type of savior in Scott Frost.
