Social media was abuzz on Saturday, September 23, 2023, as the Oregon Ducks blew out the Colorado Buffaloes 42-6. The game was a highly anticipated matchup, as Colorado was led by Deion Sanders, who is in his first season as head coach.
Sanders' son, Shedeur, is the starting quarterback for Colorado. Shedeur was highly touted coming out of high school, and he is considered to be one of the top quarterbacks in the country. However, Shedeur had a tough game against Oregon, throwing three interceptions and being sacked seven times.
The Ducks' defense was dominant all game, and they held the Buffaloes to just 195 total yards. Oregon's offense was also on fire, as they scored 42 points in the first three quarters.
The game was a blowout, and it led to a lot of reaction on social media. Some people were critical of Sanders and his coaching staff, while others defended them and said that it is still early in the season. Some people also criticized Shedeur Sanders, while others said that he is still a young player and that he will learn from his mistakes.
Here are some of the most popular tweets about the game:
"Oregon just embarrassed Deion Sanders and Colorado."
"Shedeur Sanders is not the quarterback that Colorado thought he was."
"Deion Sanders needs to get his team in order."
"Oregon is a Pac-12 contender this year."
"I'm still a Deion Sanders believer, but that was a tough loss."
The game was a major setback for Colorado, but it is still early in the season. Sanders has said that he is building a program for the long term, and he is not worried about the short-term results. It will be interesting to see how Colorado responds to this loss and whether they can become a contender in the Pac-12 this season.
