It’s been some time since discussions last centered on the Colorado Buffaloes football team, notably during their spring game. By then, college football had paused for three months, leaving fans eagerly anticipating any activity. During this period, the Buffaloes attracted attention regarding their team composition, spotlighted due to a lack of other football news.
Critics online compared the Buffaloes’ size to that of a high school team. Following summer workouts, fall camp has commenced, bringing the team’s condition into question. Coach Deion Sanders, known as Coach Prime, was expected to have his team significantly improved physically over the summer.
Recently, a video surfaced from the Colorado football official account, displaying what appeared to be a local Pop Warner team practicing passing drills. Surprisingly, this turned out to be the actual Buffaloes team preparing for the 2026 season. This sparked confusion among fans and raised questions about the team’s physical development.
On November 23, 2024, Coach Sanders observed his players’ warm-ups before their game against the Kansas Jayhawks at Arrowhead Stadium. Observers have raised concerns about the physical size of the players, likening them to a 6A high school team from Texas.
The social media post received criticism, with viewers questioning why a Power 4 team appeared as robust as a high school program. The size and field conditions in the video puzzled many, with some suggesting even the referee resembled a high school student volunteer.
The social media administrators likely anticipated the backlash from posting the video. The comments reflect skepticism about the team’s competitive strength, with predictions placing them at the bottom of the Big 12. Julian Lewis, a former five-star quarterback, remains one of the few notable returnees.
Coach Prime will hope his players match his legendary speed from his college years, as physical dominance seems lacking in the upcoming season.
