Buckle up, Buffs fans, because Deion Sanders is bringing the hype to the Big 12! After a rough 4-8 season in the Pac-12, Colorado is switching conferences with a whole new swagger.Porno Mostbet And it’s not just the team feeling optimistic. Even analysts and experts are taking notice too. Some are even predicting a double treat – an 8-win season this year. On July 13th, Bruce Feldman, a big-name insider from The Athletic and FOX Sports, gave Coach Prime’s squad a big thumbs up on “The Rich Eisen Show.” He sees an 8-win season within reach, especially with the team’s improved offensive line. “I think they can do that,” Feldman spoke confidently, adding, “It would be hard not to get better considering how bad they were on the offensive line last year. But from everything I’ve heard from the people I’ve talked to in there, I think they will have upgraded these areas in part.” ADVERTISEMENT Article continues below this ad He also admits the Big 12 is tougher than their previous conference, but there aren’t any unbeatable teams on the schedule. The key, according to Feldman, is keeping quarterback Shedeur Sanders protected. With that secured, Feldman believes the Buffs’ playmakers can shine. “He’s a terrific quarterback,” Feldman said of Shedeur. “So as long as he’s healthy and as long as he’s not under total duress all the time, I think they’ll get to eight wins” he noted. And Feldman isn’t the only one on the bandwagon. CU alum Matt McChesney has been predicting big things for Coach Prime all along. McChesney even upped the ante a bit, saying, “They’re gonna win 9 games!” Even his co-hosts Coach JB and Smitty are forecasting a bowl appearance for the Buffaloes. So, where’s all this newfound confidence coming from? Look no further than the massive roster upgrades, particularly on the offensive line.

Last year, Shedeur was sacked a staggering 52 times, a situation Deion is determined to avoid this time. Thus comes Coach Prime’s offensive master plan – a fortress built around his QB son Shedeur. He brought in two key figures, offensive line coach Phil Loadholt and offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur, to mastermind the protection. But the real muscle comes from the roster upgrades. Five-star recruit Jordan Seaton joins the line alongside Shedeur, while the massive 6’6″ offensive tackle Kahlil Benson is another brick in the protective wall. Benson even coined a team mantra: “DT2 – Don’t Touch 2,” rallying the Buffs fans around the mission to keep Shedeur safe. ADVERTISEMENT Article continues below this ad The commitment is real – Deion reportedly brought in a “massive” 9 new offensive linemen this year, all giants averaging 296 pounds and 6’5″ in height. In fact, five of these behemoths are even bigger, averaging a whopping 339 pounds and 6’6″ tall. But protection isn’t just about size. Shedeur has also been busy building chemistry with a talented receiving corps featuring Jimmy Horn Jr., LaJohntay Wester, and Kaleb Mathis, too. Sure, the offense seems to leave no room for doubt this season!
