Many expected the Colorado to trample Stanford ahead of the Pac-12 battle on Friday night
Deion Sanders’s squad was trending in that direction when the Buffaloes built a 29-point advantage at halftime of the contest. However, that was until the Cardinal outscored the Buffaloes, 36-7, in the second half and booted a game-winning field goal to register the 46-43 double overtime win.
Sanders, who is known to keep receipts and confront his doubters with entertaining catchphrases that often turn into viral moments, became the subject of a hilarious Saturday Night Live skit mocking the Buffaloes’ coach after Friday’s “disturbing” loss. Actor Kenan Thompson, dressed in an iconic white Colorado hoodie and black sunglasses, starred as “Coach Prime” and fielded questions from NBC anchor Colin Jost in the comedy sketch.
