Colorado 2023 slate is a gauntlet for Deion Sanders

Colorado 2023 slate is a gauntlet for Deion Sanders

The Colorado Buffaloes went 1-11 last year and fired Karl Dorrell. However, the hire of Deion Sanders has brought this program into a different world of possibility and potential.

The Buffs have landed a ton of transfer portal players and high-ranked recruits, and they will be a must-watch for a lot of games.

The schedule is brutal for Colorado, and Jack Carlough of Buffaloes Wire gave a look at the schedule after it was released on Wednesday.

It includes an opener against TCU and a pair of brutal back-to-back Pac-12 games with Oregon and USC.

Here’s the slate for Coach Prime’s first year in the FBS.

TCU offensive lineman Marcus Williams (71) celebrates after the Horned Frogs defeated Michigan in the 2022 Fiesta Bowl at State Farm Stadium.

TCU won’t have a lot of the players and personnel from its national runner-up squad, but the Frogs should still be good. It’s certainly not an easy opener for Coach Prime.

Let’s play some Big 8 football! Let’s also turn the clock back to 2001, when Colorado scored a memorable 62-36 win over Nebraska to make the Big 12 Championship Game.

Nov 25, 2022; Fort Collins, Colorado, USA; Colorado State Rams wide receiver Justus Ross-Simmons (85) celebrates his touchdown with teammate Colorado State Rams wide receiver Tory Horton (14) at Sonny Lubick Field at Canvas Stadium.

Coach Prime better win this one, because look who’s on the schedule next:
