Deion Sanders weighing QB switch as Colorado’s offense sputters into game against No. 12 Texas Tech
Sanders is weighing a change after Colorado has averaged 21.5 points and struggled to settle into Brennan Marion’s offense.
- Colorado head coach Deion Sanders is evaluating his starting quarterback position leading into Saturday's home game against Texas Tech. Sanders has not officially named a starter, though he hinted Tuesday he may have already reached a decision.
- The Buffaloes are mired in a two-game funk, averaging a league-low 21.5 points per game. Sanders attributed these offensive struggles to poor execution, noting that players must make the decision to execute the called plays.
- Backup quarterback Isaac Wilson provided a spark during last week's 23-13 loss at Baylor, throwing a touchdown pass. Sanders requires his starter to demonstrate rhythm, confidence, and a firm grasp of the offense to lead the huddle.
- Although speculation surrounds the position, Sanders insisted the decision will play out during practice this week. "I think I'm the one that makes that decision," Sanders said Tuesday, pushing back on reports the choice is finalized.
- Colorado must improve third-down efficiency, having converted 43.3% of third downs in its two wins compared to just 25.9% in recent losses, as the team prepares to host the Red Raiders in a pivotal Big 12 matchup.
