Like Bill Belichick, Deion Sanders had led his college team to a somewhat unexpected 2-0 start in 2026. Like Belichick, the run ended for Sanders in Week 3.
Sanders and Colorado were thumped by Northwestern, 41-7, on Saturday night in Evanston, Illinois.
Before the game, Colorado's players were heard complaining about Northwestern's current venue — Northwestern Medicine Field at Martin Stadium. "This place fucking sucks," one of them said. "Shit sounds like a fucking library."
Then the game started, and Deion's team got Dewey Decimal System'd.
After the game, Sanders called the outcome a "flat-out butt kicking." He attributed the loss primarily to turnovers and penalties.
Colorado is now 2-1. The nine-game Big 12 schedule starts next week, with a visit to Baylor.
