Colorado entered Saturday night’s game as heavy favorites against Colorado State and almost found themselves on the opposite end of an upset. With the team down eight points on one final drive in the fourth quarter, quarterback Shedeur Sanders led the offense on a 98-yard game-tying drive that eventually led to a double overtime victory and a field-rushing celebration.
After the game, Sanders said he drew inspiration from Tom Brady on his game-saving drive.
“At the two [2-yard line], all I was thinking was Brady mode,” he said. “That’s it. Simple. You left too much time out there.”
