[wind blowing, rain falling]
[thunder rumbles]
[indistinct chatter]
We are waiting for Coach Prime's arrival.
He decided to switch it up. He's driving himself.
[thunder rumbles]
Obviously, with the rain and all the lightning,
as you can see, unexpected weather, we got a quick little change-up.
What's up, everybody? Hello.
It's early, huh?
-Oh, yeah. -Yeah.
Hey, everybody. How are you?
Coach just had many complications.
His biggest ones while we've been here is blood clots in his legs, in his hips.
To be honest, I haven't seen much of a weak Prime.
He always remains really strong in front of all of us.
I mean, he has his days where he's in more pain or whatnot,
but it never changes who he is.
He never lets this foot, this injury, these complications that he's overcome
affect the way he is as coach or even as a person.
It's right here.
-From there to there? -Yeah, it's like it...
Ahh, it's hurtin' and throbbin'.
-There too? -Yeah.
I mean, throbbing.
Surgery number 11.
I'm dealing with clots and everything associated to this.
[indistinct chatter]
This is Media Day.
So I'm missing PAC-12 Media Day.
I was looking forward to going to Media Day.
That's an opportunity to have another chapter with Shedeur.
We take for granted that's my son,
so we do things like that together, which is wonderful.
So I wish we could've shared that.
But, we're gonna share many more things.
Surgery-wise, this should be the last one, prayerfully of the year.
And I should be able to run out with the team in September.
[Dr. Hunt] The primary issue that you're having is here:
with this knuckle and that knuckle.
The secondary issue is here.
Now, our most important goal is that this toe stays alive.
I will not leave the operating room
until I know that toe is getting blood flow.
-Yes, sir. -Okay?
We have to understand that there is the possibility, by doing this,
that you lose the toes.
-Hey, we're gonna take good care of you. -You always do.
I promise we're gonna do our best work.
I don't think this will be the last surgery, but
I mean, you've made a career of proving people wrong,
so if you prove me wrong, and you don't need another operation,
I think that's a win.
[man 1] Coach Prime.
It's official, and it has sent excitement throughout the entire country.
[all cheering]
[man 2] Coach Prime led Jackson State
to back-to-back undefeated SWAC championships.
Now looking to turn around a Colorado program
that's had two winning seasons
in the last 17 years.
[Coach Prime] This ain't last year. This ain't an old team.
[man 3] He's bringing Shedeur with him,
he's bringing Travis Hunter with him--
two of the biggest transfers in the country.
[man 4] Do you know what he said to his players?
He said, "Jump in the portal."
[man 5] Now there's a big deal because
over 50 players have hit the transfer portal.
[man 6] Does anyone on this roster make it?
I need my purpose right now! I need everything you got!
[man 7] This is the biggest experiment that we've ever seen in college football,
and I'm excited to see what this team has.
[theme music playing]
[upbeat music playing]
Media Day's where we get to show everything that we have at Colorado.
It's just amazing to me how much excitement there is out there
about these Media Days 'cause there's so many unknowns,
you know, right now, especially with our team.
It tells them, "Hey, football season's here."
Coach not being there, it was different.
But, you know, me and Trav,
we still held it down for us.
[man] You're big names in this massive sport.
How do you deal with other people's expectations?
Everybody's opinion doesn't really matter.
We don't let negative energy in the building, around us.
So if they're hatin', if they feel some type of way
that we're not gonna do this and that, that's fine, that's good.
'Cause whenever we do it, then it's gonna be bigger than ever.
Me, I don't even really pay attention to what everybody else have
the standards set for me.
I just go out and play my game to get to the next step.
Travis Hunter from Jackson State.
While I was at Alabama, we recruited Travis.
We thought he was one of the better players in the country,
which he was.
[Jake] Travis Hunter is...
He's special, special beyond words, really.
We've never seen anyone like Travis Hunter.
I mean, Coach Prime is probably the closest comparison
in terms of a player who wants to play both ways,
can do it at a high level,
and also just impact the game in multiple facets.
Travis is one of the best athletes I've seen in this game.
I'm glad that he chose us to allow us to coach him.
[Travis] I wanna be the best. I wanna be the biggest.
[indistinct] Coach Prime,
I'm gonna be a better two-way player than you.
[indistinct chatter]
[man] Damn!
[Coach Prime] He's him.
He's like that on both sides of the ball.
Travis is a first-round pick on both sides of the ball.
-Hi, Tracy. -Hello, how are you?
-I'm good. How are you? -Doing well.
[Rick] Is he in?
What you doing?
I came in to check on you because last we talked,
you weren't coming in for a while.
How's your stuff?
[Coach Prime] Hurting today. Last night was not good.
Last night was very painful. I told her at one point--
Are you on it too much?
I don't think so.
I think I had my leg all the way up, and then this part, this groin,
hurts like crazy.
It just sends pain all the way down.
So it was a hard night's sleep last night,
and I didn't know what the pills were to knock me out.
I needed some knockout pills last night.
I'll be on the golf cart, mostly, next week.
Yeah, I assumed that.
By the end of the year, hopefully, it'll all be eradicated
and everything will be great.
That's right.
I wanna win.
-Oh, I wanna win too. -I wanna win.
I want it right here. I wanna pack that thing right now.
[Rick] Oh, it's gonna be packed. You got that done.
[Strahan] I think the biggest question mark going into week one,
how will they handle the pressure?
There's a lot of pressure on this school because all eyeballs, mine included,
will be watching the game to see just how this team comes out and plays.
[Mark] You've got nearly 70 new players on the team.
You've got a new coaching staff, you've got a new system.
You've got a new culture here.
I'm as anxious as anyone to see
what this might look like when it's all said and done.
But nonetheless, his football team will be a direct reflection of him.
[indistinct chatter]
Fall camp is vital because we have a new inventory of young men,
as well as coaches and staffers,
that we gotta understand what we have.
It's when you find out who's who and what's what.
Now, when it comes to the fall, you have 29 opportunities
to have only 25 practices,
so all 25 practices have to count.
You don't have time to mess around.
Set, hit, hit! Go, go, go! [grunts]
[Gary] It's time to really build your team and really, really focus on the season.
And that's what fall camp brings.
[horn blows]
Hey, don't walk, don't walk! Seven down! Seven down!
We gotta be able to go five plays without getting fatigued.
We're a fast-tempo team.
If we sub, they're gonna sub, it's gonna slow us up.
[Coach Prime] Come on, man, that's two in a row.
Come on, man. Do it again.
Do it again! Do it again!
[Sean] When players are struggling, we gotta figure out what the obstacle is
and why they're struggling.
And once you identify what that obstacle is,
you work with them to remove that obstacle
so that they can become the best version of themselves.
You should stay low in all this stuff.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!
Yo, you're wild as a...
You're wild! Do it right!
We don't care about how fast you're doing it, do it right!
Do it right!
You're wild right now.
[Charles] We've got to make sure that we do a good job
of teaching our players what we want.
When you get in the open field, do not let the ball cross your face.
Everybody got that?
Aight, don't let it cross your face.
[whistle blows]
Hey, Cormani! Cormani!
One more time like that, you out!
Get to the darn ball!
This is the first play!
[Cormani] There's really a lot of pressure on my back.
There's a lot of things you gotta do when you first come in:
get the playbook, the formations...
It's just crazy, running through your mind,
meetings, everything.
You know, I'm new to this, freshman coming in.
Just gotta get dialed in and learn everything.
[Andre] Coach Prime is a puller, not a pusher.
He's gonna pull you to the finish line
because he can see how far we gotta go
and he knows the pace we gotta go at.
And if you wanna go, then you'll follow with him.
But if you don't because he's a puller, he'll cut bait.
He'll cut the line and keep moving forward.
[Charles] That's the dude right here... Cormani?
[Coach Prime] He ain't in shape.
He's about a month away from contributing anything.
-Really? -Yeah.
I'm talking about anything.
He's on third team right now, and lucky to be on that.
Aight, well, I gotta run up to a meeting...
-but I'm gonna come down here everyday. -Got you.
Go get 'em.
Take care of yourself. Please.
[Coach Prime] We gonna win. That's what I'm gonna take care of.
[Andre] We come down to a 1-11 team.
Won one game last year.
Came all the way back down, got rid of the guys that couldn't do it,
brought some guys in, and started climbing back up the steps again.
[Coach Prime] We're trying to take boys to men.
We're not just trying to raise football players.
I've lost, if you're the same person that came to this institution
that leaves this institution, I've lost, I didn't do my job.
Coaches, our staff, we didn't do our job whatsoever,
but I'm gonna take responsibility for that.
That's on me.
[horn blows]
I need all position coaches.
I want you to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the darn truth.
Give your unit a grade.
Defensive ends, rush ends?
F.
We don't get the call. We don't get lined up.
We don't run to the ball. No sense of urgency.
We got a long way to go, Coach.
-Defensive line? -F.
Don't get lined up. Don't strike.
Not coming off the ball.
-Linebackers? -F.
No communication. Not running to the ball.
Gotta get missed assignments.
[Coach Prime] Not a good grade today, guys.
There's a reason I shortened practice today.
I shortened practice today because I knew what we were gonna get.
It was gonna be some bull junk.
Because some of y'all are serious about this,
and you worked your butt off over the break.
And some of y'all didn't.
I promise you. You will not get on the field, if you are not in shape.
Period. I promise you that.
-We understand that? -[all] Yes, sir.
[Coach Prime] All right. We don't even need to break it down.
Just take your butts in. You ain't do nothing today.
[indistinct chatter]
-How's everyone? -[all greet]
How you doing? How you doing? How you doing? How you doing?
Let's go.
Hi, Coach. Adam Munsterteiger, 24/7 Sports.
[Coach Prime] How you doing, sir?
Curious, as you've prepared for TCU, what your overall impressions are?
First of all, great coaching.
Great coaching, great staff.
They did the unthinkable last year, and I'm proud of them.
They will be prepared. I'm happy with our opponent.
I can't wait to get up there and see how we stand up to the challenge.
Colorado is going up against a national championship runner-up
in their very first game of the season.
In the national news, nobody's expecting this team to win.
[man] It's like, can Deion get it done on this level, Division 1 level,
playing one of the best teams in the country his very first week?
You're taking this experimental roster all the way to Texas
to see how you can stack up with a team that has been to that level already.
[man 1] What is success measured in Colorado?
You're talking about a historically bad team.
[man 2] This is a revamped roster.
We don't know what we're getting from Colorado.
If they could just go in there and get a good loss,
that's a really good sign for where things can go this season.
First of all, I think not only players, coaches,
everybody in this organization has something to prove.
Them playing in the national championship last year,
you know, when you're winning, winning becomes a habit.
And a lot of those players that are there
understand what it takes to be at that level.
For us, on the other hand, we're taking guys
from a lot of different programs, a lot of different players,
that they've not been on that map yet.

Have you seen that before?
I'm gonna ask you. Have you seen that before?
No. [chuckles] I haven't seen it neither.
Oh, I almost had it.
At my prior school, I wasn't able to be myself.
But here, it's just, it's open.
I get to be myself.
There's something about the sunshine in Colorado and Boulder.
The wind is blowing through my tooth. You know what I'm saying?
I kind of love it, you know?
If I break a bone on this one, Coach Prime'll be mad.
Oh, shit. Oh, shit.
Ooh, I done caught that motherfucker too.
[grunts]
You remember when Tony Hawk came out with that game?
They call me Anthony Pigeon.
I don't play games when I'm on that board, man.
Yeah, Tony Hawk ain't got nothing on me.
♪ I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready ♪
[Sal] Strike it!
You bench 400 pounds! Bring your hips!
[Charles] I think they had seven sacks last year in the entire season.
We have gotta be able to pressure the quarterback.
Bishop is able to do that.
[Sal] There it is! There it is!
[Charles] The thing for for him is, he's gotta learn to play
with the consistency and the mindset that we wanna play with on defense.
[Coach Prime] Hey, hey, hey!
[whistle blows]
90, 95! Get off the darn field!
If you're gonna get on the field, run on the darn field.
You two! Bishop, get off the field.
[Bishop] My first couple practices, I felt like I was a little bit sluggish.
[Coach Prime] Hey, Bishop!
Run to your darn guy, Sal.
Group teach!
Sal's over there. Run to your coach.
Today, 88 was really lazy today,
and Bishop is lazy as I don't know what.
[man] Thank you.
When you're coming from somewhere else where you was doing this and this
and you was getting praised this way, this way,
and then you get here, and then all those habits that you created
are now called bad habits.
That was just an aggravating point for me.
[Coach Prime] Run, Bishop!
[whistle blows]
Hey, Bishop.
Sal, you teach them to run to the sideline when the QB is scrambling?
He's running 90 degrees at him to keep him inside out on the quarterback.
What was that?
[sighs] It went to "I need to change."
Damn.
[Coach Prime] Running off the field, you're last.
You're last to the meetings.
You're just last.
Like, that's the spirit. We gotta break that, man.
Bishop is gonna be that guy, but he's going to have to put in work
that he's never fathomed to be all that he wants to be
because he has the tools, he has the utensils to do them.
He just has to put in the extreme work and focus.
[Sal] Now, let me ask you a question,
before I even go look at the tape, what am I gonna see?
Mmmm...
[Sal] What am I gonna see?
Probably loafs, that's about it. Loafs.
[man] Jog off the field then.
-What do you see me doing? -[man] All right.
[Trevor] Not everyone has a great backstory of why they got here.
"The coach didn't like me." "I got into some issues off the field."
Whatever it is, we all have our little stories.
We're coming together as a band of renegades,
and we're sticking it to the man.
We're doing it a different way.
And Prime's the leader of this group.
Prime says, "When they go right, we go left."
[Dr. Hunt] How you doing?
-Good, Doc. -Good.
-Foot's doing all right? -Yeah, foot's doing good.
All right. Let's get rid of this cast.
[saw whirring]
You remember this thing.
Yeah, explain that thing to me, Doc, 'cause, like, I've been thinking
about that thing cutting into my leg.
So when does it stop?
So this is not here. I'm gonna show you something.
[saw whirring]
So, this, it doesn't oscillate. It just vibrates.
So it just cuts through.
So even if it gets your skin, the worst it can do is burn it.
It's not gonna cut it.
[saw whirring]
[whirring stops]
Cut that off.
[Lauren] Heck yeah.
[Dr. Hunt] It looks great, man. It looks really good.
[Lauren] Whoo!
So now this pin crosses all the way up into here.
[clears throat]
When it comes out, it's always gonna elevate a little bit.
[Lauren] That is insane.
[Coach Prime] Jesus Christ.
-[Lauren] Are you all right? -Yep.
[Dr. Hunt] You can get a little gauze and dab.
[Lauren] I didn't expect the pins to be that long.
I'm thinking they're only like an inch and a half, maybe two inches.
'Cause I'm thinking they're just in the toe,
and all those babies were all the way into the foot,
so they were like this long.
This foot's been through it, man.
I had never seen pins get taken out like that.
Doc just kind of grabbed them and yanked.
Those pins, I had them initially,
and he came back,
and he was like, "Lauren, I need those pins."
[indistinct chatter]
I couldn't wait to see you this morning.
I was excited, I was happy, I was elated.
I couldn't wait to wake up this morning.
It was about me having an opportunity...
to elevate.
Your goal is to be dominant all season...
my goal is to just run out before you at TCU.
This was the day, that they were taking my cast off.
I had no idea...
that these pins was that far...
within my toes.
But even though I'm numb in some areas...
and that's my twelfth surgery I've had on this thing.
I start reminiscing and started thinking about...
wow, that had to be some type of pain...
but I had to go through that process...
to get to where I am now.
I may not ever high step or dance again like I once did...
but normalcy is what I'm chasing.
What you chasing?
We all got to be chasing something.
But we're going to have to deal with some pain,
we're going to have to deal with some pins.
It ain't going to be easy, it's going to hurt.
But when you get to that point,
I can't wait to share that feeling and that emotion with you.
I can't wait to run out that tunnel with you.
I'm excited today. It ain't nothing you can do...
to get me from having that feeling that I have right now.
'Cause I know I'm getting closer.
Who getting closer with me?
Who getting closer to their dream?
Who getting closer?
Let's go get it today, baby.
When Coach showed those pins in that team meeting,
I think it just puts into perspective of what he's been through.
I think, like, all the challenges he's faced, you know,
he's going through as much pain as anybody.
So no matter how much hurt you're going through on the field,
like, seeing what he's going through,
like, it should make you wanna push even harder
and go even harder for what he's done for us.
Coach Prime, man, he's one of a kind, man.
He's standing on that gold jacket, man.
It blew my mind a little bit 'cause, like, something clicked with them.
Like, they got a whole different mentality from a person that don't want it.
[Dylan] I know they gonna be comin' today.
Just because we got uppers on, no lowers.
We're just gonna see who's really about it.
[Westbrook] We got them pads on today?
-[all] Yes, sir. -Let's see who's gonna win.
Let's see who's gonna lose.
Some people really take this serious. Some people take this for a game.
You gotta pick what side of the fence you're gonna be on.
[intense music playing]
Yeah! Good! Good! Quick feet!
[grunting]
Now that we all clicking, we know what it feel like
to have that dog mentality.
Like everything he say, when he said he's bringing his luggage,
he really meant that.
That first game is very important because the first game is letting you know
what type of team you have.
A lot of people thinking we're just bluffing, we're not the team to beat.
Nobody really fears anybody here.
[Jimmy] We ain't about to be scared while we play. We fittin' to show out.
You know what I'm saying? Like, we about to show up.
I mean, we don't come in here just going 6-6, make it to a bowl game.
I mean, it's a championship. This is what we want.
This is what we say we're gonna do. We say we're gonna come here and win.
We said we're coming. That's the plan.
They're thinking we're too small or we ain't got enough time,
we ain't gel with each other.
Fuck 'em.
[Charlie] We're going for it all.
Not next year, not the year after that.
We're going for it right now.
[all cheering]
[chanting] This is... Boulder! This is... Boulder! This is... Boulder!
[indistinct chatter]
[laughter and applause]
[man] Oh, no, look at that. Slip and slide.
[all laugh]
We decided to do some wild things today after practice.
You know, tomorrow we got the day off,
so we gonna get to experience things like this.
-You know what I'm saying? -Try something new, man.
Hey, this is what you get when you come to Colorado.
-Oh! -It is cold, bro.
Ooh-wee!
[all scream]
Oh, shit!
So our luck pretty much changed quite a bit,
you know, bringing in all these different guys.
You really get to see who they are and where they're from,
kind of what they're all about,
and I think that's huge for us coming together as a team.
Ooh-wee!
Now this is what it's all about, flowin' down good ol' Boulder Creek.
[Jimmy] The water was real cool.
I ain't never did nothing like that before in my life.
Like, I done did some crazy things, but I ain't never just swim in no river.
As a team, to reach our goal, we just gotta keep staying together,
building our brotherhood, and just staying as one for real,
and everything else will fall in line.
The thing that's on my mind when I'm coming in first game against TCU,
I already got a goal set.
I got a goal set.
A hundred and fifty or more yards with eight receptions.
About two touchdowns, two, three touchdowns.
And then we're gonna win the game.
We got a real talented team.
And just, like, we haven't-- we haven't played with each other before,
so everybody's still trying to figure out
each other's tendencies and stuff like that.
Figure out each other's tendencies, flaws, and all, like...
how this person think under certain pressure.
Everything's gonna fall in place, though.
Coach Prime knows what he's doing. This ain't his first rodeo.
[hip hop music playing]
Long day of meetings, man. Long day of meetings.
[man] Game One; how ya feel, man?
Chill. It feels normal.
First game of the season is really important,
but that stuff doesn't really affect me like that.
What's up. Three in a room, man.
We got Cassandra in here. She's the best to do it.
It's simple.
All you gotta do is just, you know,
follow what the coaches tell us and we'll be successful.
Deep breaths.
[Arielle] Coach Prime has so much poise, so much respect.
Shedeur is a little bit more soft spoken.
They show their personalities in very different ways.
[Ryan] When people are talking about Shedeur, they're saying things like,
"Well, he's coming from the SWAC. He's coming from FCS.
He's coming from HBCU. Can he do it at this level?"
How do you feel?
Good.
Better than when we started?
Yeah.
I feel rejuvenated.
I don't think that playing against, you know, a Power Five team
is really going to faze Shedeur as much as people think it's going to,
because he's a very confident player.
When he steps out onto the field,
he thinks he's the best player on the field.
[man 1] I wanna see Deion Sanders succeed. I do.
I wanna see him change this program around.
But we're talking about 11 losses by 29 or more points.
[man 2] For those that I need to remind,
TCU was in the national championship last year.
[woman] This is gonna be a tall task.
This is a great team, but in Brione we trust.
All right, so what I'm gonna do is,
I'm just gonna inject numbing medicine all the way across the top.
[Coach Prime] Ah, thank you, Lord.
Aah!
[Dr. Hunt] That's gonna numb up the nerve pain, all right?
-[Coach Prime] Thank you. -[woman] You're welcome.
Thank you, Doc.
[Mark] Prime Effect is about ready to take effect.

Don't try to be a hero. Just do your job.
Do the darn job. That's all we need.
[Mark] Morris looking.
Throws in end zone.
And it is...
It was picked off by Trevor Woods!
[all cheer]
Hey, come here.
Great job. Great job.
Jog it off, jog it off, jog it off.
Let's get Travis back in next play.
[commentator 1] Travis Hunter again.
I tell you, Travis Hunter must be the most well-conditioned athlete
in college football.
[commentator 2] Either that or he will be after today.
[Mark] Shedeur in the pocket now, steps back, rears back,
going for the home run down the right-hand side.
He's got Hunter out there and dives into the end zone!
Did he hold on? No.
Deep ball. We gotta get that deep ball.
[Mark] Unbalanced line, snap, turns, hands off Trey Sanders,
back to the right side.
He's gonna walk in for a touchdown.
[all cheer]
[commentator] First and goal at the two.
Colorado is trying to get big in there.
I believe that's Bishop Thomas, a defensive lineman,
in at full back, number 95.
Sy'veon Wilkerson.
Touchdown, Buffaloes.
Good job. Let's bring in secondary.
-That makes them believe we can run. -[man] Hell yeah.
[commentator] How about that block?
And that was Bishop Thomas, the defensive lineman,
and just plants the TCU defender in the end zone.
Good work.
Let's go!
[Mark] First down, goal to go from the four-yard line.
Handoff, tailback, and second effort.
Trey Sanders finds the end zone.
[commentator] Looks like we got a good old-fashioned
Big 12 offensive explosion in front of us.
[Mark] Swing pass out of the back.
A little screen caught by Dylan Edwards.
He's got men in front of him. running at the 30, up the sideline.
Here he goes on his way to the end zone!
Touchdown! Oh, he is lightning!
He is quick! A run and a catch of 75 yards!
Morris to throw.
Looks, scans, end zone...
It was caught. Touchdown.
[commentator] And just like that,
TCU marches it straight down the field.
Coach, we're not getting near to their quarterback, man.
We're not getting near him. We're not getting near the quarterback.
Not near him.
[horn blows]
Hey, do your assignment. Do your assignment!
There's no way we should have an explosion!
It should've been three downs and a punt!
Everybody, do their job!
[crowd cheering]
[commentator] Third down.
Morris...
Intercepted! Wow!
Travis Hunter!
Unbelievable!
-What?! What?! What?! -That's right! That's right!
Take some air, a little bit out of that deep ball, put it on.
You're accurate. Just put it on.
[Mark] Shedeur rears back.
Going for the home run down the right-hand side.
And it is caught.
A big, big gainer by Colorado!
Looking, time, downfield.
Got a man out there.
Travis Hunter!
That man is a magician!
Do what you do.
Protect the ball, but do what you do, all right?
[Mark] Now flushed out to his left, looking downfield, sets his feet.
Fires it, end zone, wide open.
End zone! Touchdown!
Honk the horn! Jimmy's in the end zone!
Jimmy Horn Jr. and the Buffs have regained the lead!
[commentator] This guy has been dishing the rock
as well as anybody here today.
[Mark] On a fourth down and two,
Dylan Edwards with touchdown number four!
I believe. Hey, I know two gonna make the right decision.
[Mark] The Buffaloes on top 45-42.
And right now, if you're a Colorado fan,
all you're asking for is for a defensive stop.
[Coach Prime] There's no time for y'all out here to quit!
It's about five of y'all done quit!
And when you watch the film, you're gonna see it!
And I'm sick of it!
You gotta make up your mind that we're gonna finish!
We're gonna have another opportunity.
Go out there on defense.
And you've gotta atone for this.
You got each other. Check each other.
[Mark] Fourth down and nine,
64 seconds remaining.
Colorado's defense needs one last gasp.
Morris drops.
Here comes pressure.
Throws the ball off.
Caught on the right-hand side.
He dives forward and... he did not get it!
He did not get it!
It's a turnover on downs!
It's over! Yeah! [cheers]
[commentator] Sanders takes a knee.
And how about this?
Prime Time! Deion wins his first one!
I shook up the world, bro.
We. We.
[commentator] 45-42.
-That was awesome. -Appreciate you.
-Thank you, Coach. -Good job today.
-Thank you. -Good luck the rest of the season.
[all cheering]
What is your message to the fans of what we can expect from Colorado?
We told you we're coming.
You thought we were joking.
And guess what? We keep receipts.
God bless you, America. Ooh, God is good.
Just shocked the world!
Oh, my God! I feel good, boy!
Come on, man. We do this shit for real.
And they doubted us.
This shit bringing tears to my eyes, boy.
I've been taking so many L's.
-Boy, we finally got one. -Finally got one.
-I'm telling you. -Finally got one.
[all cheering]
[Coach Prime] Thank you, Jesus.
Thank you.
[indistinct chatter]
God bless you.
You did so good today, Coach.
You deserve this.
No, I know. We did it!
We did it, and you got us here!
Great job, guys.
How'd it hold up?
I'm hurtin', man.
I need ice.
[Rick] Hey! You did it!
The whole four quarters!
[Coach Prime] We did it.
Yeah, but you stayed on your feet and kept going.
Way to go.
[sobs]
Thank you, Jesus.
[crowd cheering]
[Arielle] This was pretty much David versus Goliath, right off the bat.
From this point on, everybody is gonna be watching, week by week,
to see what can Coach Prime and his Buffaloes do.
And that right there, in and of itself, is huge.
They've already just matched their win total from the previous season.
Now let's go!
I think that they've already proven that this team on the field
is as electric as they are off the field.
How many? How many you had?
About five or ten.
-That's ignorant. -You know what I'm saying?
That's crazy.
Hey.
[Shilo] I missed some, but I think I had ten tackles.
[Coach Prime] That's okay.
You're good. You're good. You're good. We're gonna get better.
[Shilo] I'm gonna get better, but I think I did have ten tackles.
-Yeah. -[Shilo] So...
Everybody that said they believed but ain't believed till we in here, oh.
But they don't understand, we've won everywhere we've gone.
Yeah.
When y'all was here, we won everywhere we've gone.
We've changed the game everywhere we've gone.
We didn't even do our best.
That's right, but I like that 'cause we've got so much room to improve.
I'm proud of y'all, man. I can't wait to get back to Colorado.
I can't wait to get back to Boulder. It's on.
And you know what we're getting ready to do?
We're getting ready to work harder this week.
We're gonna try to make sure every light on the scoreboard
work this week because this is a special week.
This is a rivalry. This is the enemy week.
[indistinct chatter]
[Coach Prime] They ain't talkin' now, are they?
I got receipts. I got all my receipts too.
What we accomplished out there today, ain't none of y'all believe that.
Now what? And now what?
Everybody quiet now.
Now what?
What's up, boss? Do you believe now?
[reporter] Of all the...
Hold on! Hold on! Oh, no!
Do you believe now? Huh?
[reporter] I never said I didn't believe.
Oh, no, no, no!
I read through that bull junk you wrote.
I sifted through all that.
-[reporter] What did I write? -Oh, no, come on.
[reporter] Let me ask my question.
Do you believe?
[reporter] In what?
You don't believe. You just answered it.
You don't believe.
Next question.
-[hip hop music playing] -[all cheering]
[Coach Prime] These young men in there right now, they believe.
Not all of them believed before, but right now, now they believe.
Now Boulder believes, people in the front office.
Now everybody wanna believe.
We're back. We're back.
I'm good with that. We got room.
Talk that shit now!
They said we was too small.
They said we couldn't coach!
They said we wasn't big enough; we wasn't strong enough!
[Coach Prime] We're gonna continuously be questioned
because we do things that have never been done.
When you see a confident Black man,
sitting up there talking his talk and walking his walk,
oh, they don't like that.
But guess what? We're gonna consistently do what we do.
I'm here and ain't going nowhere.
And I'm about to get comfortable in a minute.
I'm about to get comfortable in a minute.
[man] This used to be the rivalry in college football:
Nebraska versus Colorado.
[Ryan] This is the first home game of the Coach Prime Era,
and you bring in the team
that Colorado fans want to beat more than anything.
[Mark] Before the game even gets underway,
you've already got bad blood brewing between these two old rivals.
When I talk to grown-ups, I take my hat and my glasses off.
That's what my mother taught me.
[Coach Prime] See, now they messed around and made it personal.
[commentator] Shedeur Sanders hit as he throws.
There's a chuck yard.
Jimmy Horn.
He's been doing that move for years.
[Mark] Shedeur rifles it downfield.
Jimmy Horn Jr. to the end zone!
