New Colorado coach Deion Sanders has a bit of a history with his team’s season-opening opponent, TCU.
Sanders was a finalist to replace Gary Patterson as TCU’s coach two seasons ago, only to be beaten out by eventual hire Sonny Dykes. Dykes took TCU to the CFP national title game last season, and Sanders got the job with Colorado this offseason. But that’s not where the bad blood lies between Sanders and the Horned Frogs.
It instead has everything to do with one of his sons, Buffaloes starting quarterback Shedeur Sanders. Deion explained the reason for the “bad blood,” which dates back several years to when Shedeur was being recruited by Florida State, during “The Colorado Football Coaches Show” on Thursday afternoon.
