1
00:00:13,806 --> 00:00:16,016
[woman] So, Sam, John's here.
He's shooting video, right?
2
00:00:16,100 --> 00:00:17,643
- Yes.
- [woman] Awesome. Thank you.
3
00:00:18,978 --> 00:00:23,774
[Charles] Today we're here shooting
the cover for Coach Prime's book.
4
00:00:23,858 --> 00:00:28,279
{\an8}This is all his vision.
It's about winning on and off the field.
5
00:00:29,822 --> 00:00:32,366
First shot expresses him
as a businessman,
6
00:00:32,450 --> 00:00:34,034
and then we're gonna switch to the field
7
00:00:34,118 --> 00:00:38,456
because obviously that's where
he's had an extreme amount of success.
8
00:00:38,539 --> 00:00:41,751
[photographer] Smile.
You're about to impart all the wisdom.
9
00:00:41,834 --> 00:00:46,922
But it also can be the focus
and the sharpness that we clearly see.
10
00:00:47,006 --> 00:00:50,801
[Michael] I think what makes Prime
such a lightning rod for a lot of people
11
00:00:50,885 --> 00:00:54,680
{\an8}is they wish they could have come up
with some of the things that he says.
12
00:00:54,764 --> 00:00:56,557
{\an8}Like, what did he say?
13
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,477
{\an8}"You dress good, you play good.
You play good, they pay good."
14
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,438
{\an8}All that different stuff,
who comes up with that besides Prime?
15
00:01:02,521 --> 00:01:04,565
["I Look Good" by Chalie Boy playing]
16
00:01:08,736 --> 00:01:11,363
{\an8}I mean, the Prime Effect
in terms of revenue has been outrageous:
17
00:01:11,447 --> 00:01:15,659
{\an8}$90 million
just from the attention received.
18
00:01:15,743 --> 00:01:17,703
{\an8}[Arielle]
This is absolutely bigger than football.
19
00:01:17,787 --> 00:01:21,207
{\an8} I mean, every week, you're seeing
more and more celebrities here
20
00:01:21,290 --> 00:01:25,169
{\an8}because they want just a piece
of what is happening.
21
00:01:28,798 --> 00:01:30,758
[Dr. Rabaka]
A lot of what we consider popular culture
22
00:01:30,841 --> 00:01:32,676
is really Black popular culture.
23
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,847
And athletes are at the heart,
so the fact that this brother is a brand
24
00:01:36,931 --> 00:01:40,434
{\an8}and he's larger than life
and he's energizing
25
00:01:40,518 --> 00:01:43,646
{\an8}the University of Colorado's
base football fan
26
00:01:43,729 --> 00:01:45,689
and that they've
sold out the entire season,
27
00:01:45,773 --> 00:01:46,816
it's a no-brainer.
28
00:01:46,899 --> 00:01:48,400
[camera shutter clicks]
29
00:01:48,484 --> 00:01:50,986
{\an8}I'm me, man. I ain't no new me.
30
00:01:51,070 --> 00:01:53,364
{\an8}The whole country is just getting
an opportunity to see it.
31
00:01:56,826 --> 00:01:58,828
[man 1]
Coach Prime.
32
00:01:58,911 --> 00:02:03,582
It's official, and it has sent excitement
throughout the entire country.
33
00:02:03,666 --> 00:02:04,750
[all cheering]
34
00:02:04,834 --> 00:02:07,253
[man 2]
Coach Prime led Jackson State
35
00:02:07,336 --> 00:02:10,297
to back-to-back undefeated
SWAC championships.
36
00:02:11,215 --> 00:02:14,510
Now looking to turn around
a Colorado program
37
00:02:14,593 --> 00:02:17,429
that's had two winning seasons
38
00:02:17,513 --> 00:02:19,348
in the last 17 years.
39
00:02:20,474 --> 00:02:23,227
[Coach Prime] This ain't last year.
This ain't an old team.
40
00:02:23,310 --> 00:02:24,645
[man 3]
He's bringing Shedeur with him,
41
00:02:24,728 --> 00:02:26,188
he's bringing Travis Hunter with him...
42
00:02:26,272 --> 00:02:28,399
two of the biggest transfers
in the country.
43
00:02:28,482 --> 00:02:30,484
[man 4] Do you know what
he said to his players?
44
00:02:30,568 --> 00:02:32,695
He said, "Jump in the portal."
45
00:02:32,778 --> 00:02:34,238
[man 5]
Now there's a big deal because
46
00:02:34,321 --> 00:02:36,991
over 50 players
have hit the transfer portal.
47
00:02:37,074 --> 00:02:39,994
[man 6]
Does anyone on this roster make it?
48
00:02:40,077 --> 00:02:43,706
I need my purpose right now!
I need everything you got!
49
00:02:43,789 --> 00:02:47,293
[man 7] This is the biggest experiment
that we've ever seen in college football,
50
00:02:47,376 --> 00:02:48,878
and I'm excited to see what this team has.
51
00:02:48,961 --> 00:02:50,963
[theme music playing]
52
00:02:59,930 --> 00:03:02,057
[all cheering]
53
00:03:02,141 --> 00:03:03,392
[Mark]
The crowd is on its feet.
54
00:03:03,475 --> 00:03:05,269
It's sold out
for the second week in a row.
55
00:03:05,352 --> 00:03:07,938
It's Colorado
in the Rocky Mountain Showdown,
56
00:03:08,022 --> 00:03:10,941
taking on the CSU Rams.
57
00:03:12,568 --> 00:03:14,069
Down the left-hand side,
all kinds of contact.
58
00:03:14,153 --> 00:03:17,281
Oh! And a late shot that time
on Travis Hunter.
59
00:03:17,364 --> 00:03:18,657
[commentator]
And he's down, Mark.
60
00:03:18,741 --> 00:03:20,200
[Mark]
Yes, he is.
61
00:03:20,284 --> 00:03:21,827
[Lauren]
Travis is just different.
62
00:03:21,911 --> 00:03:26,332
He took his injury and, like, never,
not one time, was down or upset.
63
00:03:26,415 --> 00:03:28,292
He was still at practice
cheering guys on.
64
00:03:28,375 --> 00:03:31,170
{\an8}It sound crazy, but him and Coach Prime
both really are very similar.
65
00:03:31,253 --> 00:03:32,838
{\an8}There were picking up
people around them
66
00:03:32,922 --> 00:03:34,465
{\an8}when we're all, like,
looking at them like,
67
00:03:34,548 --> 00:03:37,426
{\an8}"Y'all are the ones going through it.
Like, we feel for y'all."
68
00:03:37,509 --> 00:03:38,928
{\an8}And they're picking up
everybody around them.
69
00:03:39,011 --> 00:03:40,721
If you don't hurry up, bro.
70
00:03:40,804 --> 00:03:42,514
I need one more card.
71
00:03:42,598 --> 00:03:44,224
[producer]
Look at this outfit you got on here...
72
00:03:44,308 --> 00:03:46,518
ultimate lounge day, huh?
73
00:03:46,602 --> 00:03:48,812
I love wearing pajamas, though, so...
74
00:03:48,896 --> 00:03:51,732
I'm always in pajamas.
All my coaches know I'm always in pajamas.
75
00:03:51,815 --> 00:03:54,109
After I got hit, I just couldn't breathe.
76
00:03:54,193 --> 00:03:55,235
{\an8}Pretty much that's it.
77
00:03:55,319 --> 00:03:58,656
{\an8}Just get up and get back in the game
pretty much is all I was thinking.
78
00:03:58,739 --> 00:04:01,909
{\an8}That's all I wanted to do is get back up
and get back in the game and play.
79
00:04:01,992 --> 00:04:03,827
- Me first?
- Yeah.
80
00:04:03,911 --> 00:04:07,039
[Travis] I can't describe the pain.
It was just aching, hurting.
81
00:04:07,122 --> 00:04:09,208
And I know it wasn't just
getting the wind knocked out of me,
82
00:04:09,291 --> 00:04:11,168
so I just knew
there was something wrong.
83
00:04:11,251 --> 00:04:13,545
It was tough.
I mean, I couldn't let my team down.
84
00:04:13,629 --> 00:04:17,549
I knew I had another half in me,
but the doctors at halftime,
85
00:04:17,633 --> 00:04:19,301
they didn't let me
go back out there and play,
86
00:04:19,385 --> 00:04:21,595
make sure I wasn't internally bleeding.
87
00:04:22,554 --> 00:04:23,847
Travis always gets up.
88
00:04:25,349 --> 00:04:26,684
But beginning of the fourth quarter,
89
00:04:26,767 --> 00:04:30,729
they confirmed that
it was a grade II liver laceration.
90
00:04:30,813 --> 00:04:35,025
And I mean, at that point,
it's just, "Okay, is he all right?"
91
00:04:35,109 --> 00:04:38,529
[Travis] Going to the hospital,
I was hoping that it could be over fast
92
00:04:38,612 --> 00:04:40,698
and I could just come back
and try to get in the fourth quarter,
93
00:04:40,781 --> 00:04:42,074
but that wasn't the case.
94
00:04:42,157 --> 00:04:43,659
It was deeper than that.
95
00:04:44,910 --> 00:04:48,872
It was tough because that's probably
the best player in college football
96
00:04:48,956 --> 00:04:54,420
and certainly one of your best players
on offense and defense,
97
00:04:54,503 --> 00:04:59,008
which is absurd
to lose two players with one shot.
98
00:05:01,343 --> 00:05:06,098
{\an8}With Oregon feeling in many ways
like the first test of the season,
99
00:05:06,181 --> 00:05:08,767
{\an8}to not be able to have
a guy like Travis Hunter,
100
00:05:08,851 --> 00:05:12,062
that's something that absolutely
changes what this team can do,
101
00:05:12,146 --> 00:05:13,605
what they look like.
102
00:05:13,689 --> 00:05:16,358
[GPS] You've entered the parking lot
for your destination.
103
00:05:16,442 --> 00:05:19,945
Right now, we're at the hospital,
about to get some blood work
104
00:05:20,029 --> 00:05:23,198
and check on the liver
and make sure everything is good.
105
00:05:23,282 --> 00:05:25,200
And that's pretty much it.
106
00:05:25,284 --> 00:05:29,371
It is time to talk the biggest story
in all of sports...
107
00:05:29,455 --> 00:05:32,207
not just college sports,
all of sports...
108
00:05:32,291 --> 00:05:35,085
Deion Sanders
and his Colorado Buffaloes.
109
00:05:35,169 --> 00:05:37,755
[man]
Now we're dealing with Travis being gone.
110
00:05:37,838 --> 00:05:40,674
You just don't know
how that long-term effect.
111
00:05:40,758 --> 00:05:41,967
{\an8}Not only do you lose him,
112
00:05:42,051 --> 00:05:44,261
{\an8}you lose him for
the most important stretch of your season.
113
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:54,480
[indistinct chatter]
114
00:05:56,523 --> 00:05:57,357
[whistle blows]
115
00:05:57,441 --> 00:05:59,485
[grunting]
116
00:05:59,568 --> 00:06:00,569
[horn blows]
117
00:06:00,652 --> 00:06:02,654
[man] Go get full, baby.
Go get full.
118
00:06:04,323 --> 00:06:07,117
[Lauren] The mental component
of this game is huge:
119
00:06:07,201 --> 00:06:10,120
anger, depression,
acceptance, all that.
120
00:06:10,204 --> 00:06:11,955
And so we're starting
to get into the thick of it, though.
121
00:06:12,039 --> 00:06:15,334
I mean, guys coming up with bruises,
guys coming up with organ injuries.
122
00:06:15,417 --> 00:06:17,002
You know what I mean?
Lacerations and whatnot.
123
00:06:17,086 --> 00:06:19,046
And so, it's tough on the body.
It's a lot.
124
00:06:19,129 --> 00:06:21,882
They know as well as we do
that that comes with football.
125
00:06:21,965 --> 00:06:24,885
Again, again, again, again!
126
00:06:24,968 --> 00:06:27,262
The game's gonna love you.
The game's gonna hate you.
127
00:06:27,346 --> 00:06:30,516
{\an8}The game's gonna take care of you.
The game's gonna hurt you.
128
00:06:30,599 --> 00:06:36,271
Through those tests,
you get a chance to work your character.
129
00:06:36,355 --> 00:06:37,356
Ready, go!
130
00:06:39,191 --> 00:06:42,486
[Andre] I think a lot of times, you know,
people say they want this
131
00:06:42,569 --> 00:06:46,240
and they wanna do this, but I don't think
they really understand what it takes.
132
00:06:46,323 --> 00:06:50,410
{\an8}This is not a contact sport.
Basketball is a contact sport.
133
00:06:50,494 --> 00:06:52,704
This is a collision sport.
134
00:06:52,788 --> 00:06:54,289
[grunting]
135
00:06:54,373 --> 00:06:56,125
[whistle blows]
136
00:06:56,208 --> 00:06:57,292
[Shedeur]
Both of them.
137
00:06:57,376 --> 00:06:58,210
[Lauren]
Both of them?
138
00:06:58,293 --> 00:07:00,462
Well, this side is tight right there.
139
00:07:00,546 --> 00:07:02,798
- But it's, like, just the back of my...
- [Lauren] Hold on, hold on.
140
00:07:02,881 --> 00:07:04,049
We don't have a lot of depth.
141
00:07:04,133 --> 00:07:07,177
Our main players, we gotta try
to keep on the field as much as we can.
142
00:07:07,261 --> 00:07:09,847
You know, not only just for games,
but for practices too.
143
00:07:09,930 --> 00:07:13,225
DT talking about they need a day off.
Bitch, I need a day off.
144
00:07:13,308 --> 00:07:17,354
Oh, my Lord, that shit hurts! Oh!
145
00:07:19,022 --> 00:07:24,528
[groans] Oh, my God, bro!
146
00:07:24,611 --> 00:07:26,363
[groans]
147
00:07:26,446 --> 00:07:29,783
{\an8}We've had the luxury here to get some guys
in that are serious about football,
148
00:07:29,867 --> 00:07:31,618
{\an8}and they wanna play in the NFL,
149
00:07:31,702 --> 00:07:35,289
which you gotta understand
about playing at that level,
150
00:07:35,372 --> 00:07:37,624
your body's never
gonna feel good, ever.
151
00:07:37,708 --> 00:07:39,543
Football's tough, man,
and it ain't for everybody.
152
00:07:39,626 --> 00:07:42,421
I can't even. I can't grip...
I can't grip it right there.
153
00:07:42,504 --> 00:07:43,922
It hurt.
154
00:07:44,006 --> 00:07:45,716
[Andre]
We're having a good time right now.
155
00:07:45,799 --> 00:07:49,803
We're winning.
Colorado's back on top. It's trending.
156
00:07:49,887 --> 00:07:51,430
But we're not making weak men.
157
00:07:51,513 --> 00:07:54,183
We gotta make sure they understand
what it takes to be on top.
158
00:07:54,266 --> 00:07:56,018
[groans] Oh, shit!
159
00:07:56,101 --> 00:07:58,270
[woman]
Okay, just head down. Good.
160
00:07:58,353 --> 00:08:00,105
[groans]
I think it's gotta be popped.
161
00:08:00,189 --> 00:08:02,191
Something's gotta be popped in place
or some shit.
162
00:08:02,274 --> 00:08:04,234
[groaning]
163
00:08:04,318 --> 00:08:06,612
[man] Do you wanna cut the jersey
and then just sit back?
164
00:08:06,695 --> 00:08:10,365
- Is this the main source of pain?
- Right here, right here, right here.
165
00:08:10,449 --> 00:08:12,159
- [Coach Prime] Morning, everybody.
- [all] Morning.
166
00:08:12,242 --> 00:08:13,368
- [Coach Prime] Morning.
- [all] Morning.
167
00:08:13,452 --> 00:08:15,204
- Say it like you feel it. Morning.
- [all] Morning.
168
00:08:15,287 --> 00:08:17,247
Last tough work day.
Last tough work day.
169
00:08:17,331 --> 00:08:19,208
Let me tell you something
about these injuries.
170
00:08:19,291 --> 00:08:21,710
Some of y'all are getting a little soft
trying to tap out on me,
171
00:08:21,793 --> 00:08:23,420
and I'm not going for it.
172
00:08:24,463 --> 00:08:26,215
I had nine surgeries in the NFL.
173
00:08:26,298 --> 00:08:28,717
The worst one probably,
I cracked my eye socket in a playoff game.
174
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:33,805
I had a sweep, a reverse jet,
jet to the left, playing against Carolina,
175
00:08:33,889 --> 00:08:36,141
and they pinned my arm,
my head hit the ground,
176
00:08:36,225 --> 00:08:40,437
corner of my face mask hit my eye,
and I couldn't see.
177
00:08:41,438 --> 00:08:43,899
Never in my life
had to be taken off the field.
178
00:08:43,982 --> 00:08:45,901
Never in my life
would I give the training staff
179
00:08:45,984 --> 00:08:48,362
the audacity to come
and get me off the durn field.
180
00:08:48,445 --> 00:08:49,279
I got up.
181
00:08:49,363 --> 00:08:52,532
And Eric Davis, DT,
played with me in San Francisco.
182
00:08:52,616 --> 00:08:53,951
He was playing for Carolina,
183
00:08:54,034 --> 00:08:55,410
but I knew
he was gonna be around the pile.
184
00:08:55,494 --> 00:08:57,329
I said, "ED, which way?
Which way?
185
00:08:57,412 --> 00:08:59,498
Which way my bench, ED?
Which way my bench?"
186
00:08:59,581 --> 00:09:02,167
He said, "To the left."
I said, "Push me there, push me there."
187
00:09:02,251 --> 00:09:04,670
And he pushed me,
and I ran off the field.
188
00:09:07,506 --> 00:09:08,757
Had surgery the next day.
189
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,009
They had to cut my uniform off
and all that surgery the next day
190
00:09:11,093 --> 00:09:13,637
'cause my eye socket, they had to wait
for the swelling to go down.
191
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,306
But even in that,
I got up and ran off the field.
192
00:09:16,390 --> 00:09:19,101
Fourteen years and nobody
never had to come get me,
193
00:09:19,184 --> 00:09:20,894
so I don't really understand
the foolishness.
194
00:09:20,978 --> 00:09:25,941
So my rule is, if we come out there,
you're not going back in.
195
00:09:26,024 --> 00:09:28,360
There's no way you're
gonna come off the field,
196
00:09:28,443 --> 00:09:31,780
and all of a sudden you're
gonna be touched by the hand of God.
197
00:09:31,863 --> 00:09:34,741
So we ain't.
We ain't practice no softness.
198
00:09:34,825 --> 00:09:36,868
Everything is gonna be
mental toughness.
199
00:09:36,952 --> 00:09:38,161
- We good with that, guys?
- [all] Yes, sir.
200
00:09:38,245 --> 00:09:39,705
- We're gonna have a great day, right?
- [all] Yes, sir.
201
00:09:39,788 --> 00:09:40,872
- We're gonna have a great day, right?
- [all] Yes, sir.
202
00:09:40,956 --> 00:09:43,041
- We're gonna have a great day, right?
- [all] Yes, sir.
203
00:09:43,125 --> 00:09:45,460
[Romi]
In football, injury is 100%.
204
00:09:45,544 --> 00:09:48,547
It's always guaranteed,
but the questions now really come down
205
00:09:48,630 --> 00:09:50,382
to a little more of the Xs and Os.
206
00:09:50,465 --> 00:09:52,551
Who's gonna step up
besides the playmakers?
207
00:09:54,303 --> 00:09:56,305
[Jake]
It's Oregon. They are established.
208
00:09:56,388 --> 00:09:57,973
I mean, this is a top-ten team
in the country.
209
00:09:58,056 --> 00:09:58,974
CU is on the come-up.
210
00:09:59,057 --> 00:10:00,892
[crowd cheering]
211
00:10:00,976 --> 00:10:03,895
[Jake] Autzen Field is one of
the premier venues in college football.
212
00:10:03,979 --> 00:10:07,941
It's just been a raucous environment.
It's tough to play in. It's loud as hell.
213
00:10:08,025 --> 00:10:10,902
So, obviously, the odds
are stacked against you.
214
00:10:12,279 --> 00:10:15,490
[Romi] The Pac-12 is one
of the most powerful conferences
215
00:10:15,574 --> 00:10:17,784
right now in college football.
216
00:10:17,868 --> 00:10:19,995
Yeah, this is gonna be a juggernaut
all the way down the stretch.
217
00:10:20,996 --> 00:10:23,790
[commentator] A pitch back
and the toss up the field.
218
00:10:23,874 --> 00:10:25,500
And Franklin's open.
219
00:10:25,584 --> 00:10:28,045
[Romi] You have to be
not just confident in yourself,
220
00:10:28,128 --> 00:10:31,048
but you have to make sure
everyone around you believes.
221
00:10:31,131 --> 00:10:33,550
And it's very clear
that this team believes.
222
00:10:33,633 --> 00:10:35,635
But in recent weeks,
with Travis Hunter going down,
223
00:10:35,719 --> 00:10:37,721
it feels like
it's an even bigger emphasis.
224
00:10:37,804 --> 00:10:40,724
Can this team maintain
throughout the season?
225
00:10:40,807 --> 00:10:44,978
Can they actually pull that off
now that they're down quite a few dogs.
226
00:10:56,156 --> 00:10:57,657
[Andre]
Flip it one time for them, Michelle.
227
00:10:57,741 --> 00:11:01,578
This is how the Buffs eat.
This is how the Buffs eat.
228
00:11:02,788 --> 00:11:03,997
Yeah.
229
00:11:04,081 --> 00:11:05,248
[Carl] Coach.
230
00:11:05,332 --> 00:11:09,628
All right, Coach, we got some
tomahawk prime-cut, prime-cut ribeyes.
231
00:11:09,711 --> 00:11:11,463
My man!
232
00:11:11,546 --> 00:11:12,964
The first time meeting Coach Prime,
233
00:11:13,048 --> 00:11:16,760
{\an8}you know, obviously a lot
of anticipation, a little bit of nerves.
234
00:11:16,843 --> 00:11:20,764
He came in, and as he should have,
he set the bar really high.
235
00:11:20,847 --> 00:11:23,350
And he let us know that, you know,
a lot of things were gonna change.
236
00:11:23,433 --> 00:11:24,267
[woman]
Here you go.
237
00:11:24,351 --> 00:11:25,685
[Coach Prime]
Good Lord. Chef, you ain't playing, man.
238
00:11:25,769 --> 00:11:26,770
[Carl]
Not playing today, Coach.
239
00:11:27,646 --> 00:11:31,400
I think Coach Prime was really
focused on us serving some food
240
00:11:31,483 --> 00:11:34,945
that was really relatable and recognizable
to the guys that were coming in.
241
00:11:35,028 --> 00:11:36,655
We focused on some Southern cuisine:
242
00:11:36,738 --> 00:11:39,157
some Cajun, some Creole,
some barbecue.
243
00:11:39,241 --> 00:11:42,077
We wanted to make sure they felt at home.
244
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:47,499
Chef does an amazing job
of meeting everyone's needs.
245
00:11:48,625 --> 00:11:52,462
[Rick] Now we're serving three meals a day
and, you know, we have more Southern food
246
00:11:52,546 --> 00:11:54,089
{\an8}and, you know,
we're seeing some, you know,
247
00:11:54,172 --> 00:11:56,508
{\an8}people that are pretty excited
about what we're feeding.
248
00:11:57,759 --> 00:11:59,386
We try to cook everything live here,
249
00:11:59,469 --> 00:12:01,596
which means that we don't
do it all before service.
250
00:12:01,680 --> 00:12:02,722
We cook it as we need it.
251
00:12:02,806 --> 00:12:05,684
Keeps quality high.
Keeps product hot.
252
00:12:05,767 --> 00:12:06,893
That's why we do what we do.
253
00:12:07,727 --> 00:12:10,313
These athletes are training so hard,
they have to fuel their bodies
254
00:12:10,397 --> 00:12:13,024
to be able to perform
at the highest level.
255
00:12:13,108 --> 00:12:14,985
We definitely put
some attention to detail.
256
00:12:15,068 --> 00:12:17,779
This is called Buffalo Petty.
This is how petty we are.
257
00:12:17,863 --> 00:12:19,322
Look at this right here.
Excuse me, baby.
258
00:12:19,406 --> 00:12:22,492
Look at that. Look.
Colors and all. Y'all see that?
259
00:12:22,576 --> 00:12:24,744
We got corn
'cause we just beat Nebraska.
260
00:12:24,828 --> 00:12:26,246
We want duck this week.
261
00:12:26,329 --> 00:12:28,290
[Carl] We've got to give these boys
a little taste of what
262
00:12:28,373 --> 00:12:29,916
they're gonna be hunting on Saturday.
263
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,043
So we filled our fryers
with duck fat today.
264
00:12:32,127 --> 00:12:34,337
We got some wings going down,
four different flavors.
265
00:12:34,421 --> 00:12:37,549
We got a house-made
sweet and sour sauce going on this duck.
266
00:12:37,632 --> 00:12:39,759
And then we're gonna garnish
with a pickled blackberry
267
00:12:39,843 --> 00:12:41,678
and some local microgreens.
268
00:12:41,761 --> 00:12:43,555
If you play football,
you cannot eat chicken.
269
00:12:43,638 --> 00:12:45,390
You need to be eatin' duck.
270
00:12:45,474 --> 00:12:46,975
It's hunting season.
That's why.
271
00:12:47,976 --> 00:12:51,229
{\an8}I like this. Chef's nuts.
Chef needs a raise, bro.
272
00:12:56,735 --> 00:12:58,904
[hip hop music playing]
273
00:13:17,631 --> 00:13:21,092
[Dylan] I think people definitely thought
we were not as good as we were.
274
00:13:21,176 --> 00:13:23,470
They were calling us small
and stuff like that.
275
00:13:23,553 --> 00:13:26,223
{\an8}But we came in with the mentality
to get the win.
276
00:13:31,937 --> 00:13:33,688
{\an8}I got a little feel
of big time football before.
277
00:13:33,772 --> 00:13:37,734
{\an8}I played in the SCC at South Carolina,
and we had a lot of fans there.
278
00:13:37,817 --> 00:13:39,903
But here, Colorado fans,
279
00:13:39,986 --> 00:13:42,531
they're experiencing something
that they haven't had in a long time,
280
00:13:42,614 --> 00:13:45,367
which is, you know,
excitement from winning games.
281
00:13:45,450 --> 00:13:48,495
And football brings a lot of excitement
to this city, to this world,
282
00:13:48,578 --> 00:13:51,039
because it's entertainment
at the end of the day.
283
00:13:51,122 --> 00:13:53,833
[indistinct chatter]
284
00:13:57,629 --> 00:13:58,880
{\an8}We talk about the belief, right?
285
00:13:58,964 --> 00:14:01,091
{\an8}It was coming in here
and showing we can get this done.
286
00:14:01,174 --> 00:14:02,175
{\an8}We can get this done now.
287
00:14:03,051 --> 00:14:05,136
And guess what we've done.
We've brought 60 Minutes.
288
00:14:05,220 --> 00:14:08,431
We've brought Game Day.
We've brought Fox Kickoff.
289
00:14:08,515 --> 00:14:09,891
And so these kids,
you gotta keep them focused,
290
00:14:09,975 --> 00:14:11,851
so they can't sit
where they are right now.
291
00:14:11,935 --> 00:14:14,479
You can't stay here.
You gotta keep moving forward.
292
00:14:14,563 --> 00:14:16,773
And if they do that,
they get better and better,
293
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:18,358
and they start to believe in the vision
294
00:14:18,441 --> 00:14:20,193
because they start to see
how the wins rack up.
295
00:14:23,863 --> 00:14:26,116
Let me sit here and visualize
my plays I'm gonna make.
296
00:14:26,199 --> 00:14:28,743
{\an8}So it's not "um." It's...
297
00:14:28,827 --> 00:14:29,911
{\an8}[both] Om.
298
00:14:29,995 --> 00:14:30,829
{\an8}Okay.
299
00:14:30,954 --> 00:14:34,541
{\an8}[Andre] Bishop, before every game,
he goes to the end zone
300
00:14:34,624 --> 00:14:36,876
and he does his Zen meditation shit.
301
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:38,962
He's the calmest I've ever seen him.
302
00:14:39,045 --> 00:14:41,631
And he gets in the game,
none of that shit works.
303
00:14:41,715 --> 00:14:44,884
He gets penalties. He's wild.
He's taking his helmet off.
304
00:14:44,968 --> 00:14:49,180
I don't know what that
transformation is that he's doing.
305
00:14:49,264 --> 00:14:52,017
I'm not sure what's going on with Bishop.
306
00:14:52,100 --> 00:14:54,894
[Mark] Talent is a baseline
when you get to college
307
00:14:54,978 --> 00:14:56,479
and you get to this level
because when you get here,
308
00:14:56,563 --> 00:14:58,398
{\an8}everybody has talent.
309
00:14:58,481 --> 00:15:01,276
{\an8}And what then becomes important
is the attention to detail.
310
00:15:01,359 --> 00:15:05,739
I think that process of learning and
understanding what it takes to be great
311
00:15:05,822 --> 00:15:07,115
along with just being talented,
312
00:15:07,198 --> 00:15:08,575
which are two different things,
by the way,
313
00:15:08,658 --> 00:15:11,453
when you marry the two,
that's a magical thing.
314
00:15:11,536 --> 00:15:13,955
Some look up to heroes.
I always wanted to be a villain.
315
00:15:14,039 --> 00:15:15,999
But tomorrow we get to be the villain.
316
00:15:16,082 --> 00:15:17,709
You should always be the villain
in your head.
317
00:15:17,792 --> 00:15:19,419
It's they spot.
318
00:15:19,502 --> 00:15:20,503
You're never the hero.
319
00:15:20,587 --> 00:15:23,590
The villains be having good agendas,
though. They're just misunderstood.
320
00:15:23,673 --> 00:15:26,092
[Bishop] Yeah, you're right.
I've been the villain my whole life, cuz.
321
00:15:28,219 --> 00:15:30,347
{\an8}[Mark] Number ten Oregon
and number 19 Colorado
322
00:15:30,430 --> 00:15:33,558
{\an8} here in Eugene, Oregon,
in a Pac-12 conference showdown.
323
00:15:33,642 --> 00:15:34,809
[crowd cheering]
324
00:15:34,893 --> 00:15:37,062
[Coach Prime] We're gonna win the play.
We're gonna win the series.
325
00:15:37,145 --> 00:15:40,565
We're gonna win the quarter.
We're gonna win the half.
326
00:15:40,649 --> 00:15:42,817
Then we're gonna do it again,
and then we're gonna win the game.
327
00:15:42,901 --> 00:15:45,487
The Cinderella story
is over, man. Right?
328
00:15:45,570 --> 00:15:47,405
They're fighting for clicks.
We're fighting for wins.
329
00:15:47,489 --> 00:15:49,449
Now, there's a difference. Let's go!
330
00:15:49,532 --> 00:15:52,494
[cheering and applause]
331
00:15:56,748 --> 00:15:58,583
[Mark]
A lot of talk before this ballgame
332
00:15:58,667 --> 00:16:02,754
about Colorado not having
its most dynamic player, Travis Hunter.
333
00:16:02,837 --> 00:16:04,422
Make 'em believe.
334
00:16:08,927 --> 00:16:12,222
[Mark] From the 27,
inside and out taken by Bucky Irving.
335
00:16:12,305 --> 00:16:13,473
Broke a tackle
and then he stepped out of another one.
336
00:16:13,556 --> 00:16:14,933
{\an8} Picks up the first down.
337
00:16:15,016 --> 00:16:16,142
Bo Nix dumps it out of the backfield.
338
00:16:16,226 --> 00:16:17,644
Catch on the near side
and blockers out in front.
339
00:16:17,727 --> 00:16:18,645
Running inside.
340
00:16:18,728 --> 00:16:21,398
{\an8} That ends up being another first down,
a gain of 19 yards.
341
00:16:21,481 --> 00:16:24,275
Be physical! Quit bailing!
Be physical!
342
00:16:24,359 --> 00:16:25,860
{\an8}[Mark]
And another first down.
343
00:16:27,654 --> 00:16:32,075
{\an8} On the opening drive, the phrase
"hot knife through butter" comes to mind.
344
00:16:33,118 --> 00:16:35,578
We're giving them little plays
and we're playing like we're scared.
345
00:16:35,662 --> 00:16:37,080
Let's challenge these cats, man.
346
00:16:37,163 --> 00:16:37,997
[Mark]
From the 28.
347
00:16:38,081 --> 00:16:40,125
Empty backfield.
Shedeur to throw.
348
00:16:40,208 --> 00:16:43,253
{\an8} Going for the home run
and passes out of bounds to the far side.
349
00:16:43,336 --> 00:16:45,213
Another quick snap,
a little screen pass out.
350
00:16:45,296 --> 00:16:48,049
And Shedeur put that one
down low on the carpet.
351
00:16:48,133 --> 00:16:50,343
Drops, steps, throws, grab is made.
352
00:16:50,427 --> 00:16:52,470
It'll be three and out for Colorado.
353
00:16:53,638 --> 00:16:54,639
Give it to Bo Nix.
354
00:16:54,723 --> 00:16:57,475
He shovel-passes that one
to the far side.
355
00:16:57,559 --> 00:16:59,269
{\an8} 13-0.
356
00:17:00,603 --> 00:17:02,230
[commentator]
Right now, we've gotta shore it up
357
00:17:02,313 --> 00:17:04,065
or this is gonna get embarrassing.
358
00:17:04,149 --> 00:17:06,234
[Mark]
They need something to happen on offense.
359
00:17:06,317 --> 00:17:08,486
Shedeur down the right-hand side.
360
00:17:08,570 --> 00:17:10,989
And it is nearly picked off.
361
00:17:11,072 --> 00:17:12,907
Everybody calm down and do your job.
362
00:17:12,991 --> 00:17:15,285
[Mark] Throw to the end zone.
Looking. Grab is made.
363
00:17:15,368 --> 00:17:17,412
{\an8} End zone. Touchdown.
364
00:17:17,495 --> 00:17:20,623
Every single number right now
dominated by Oregon.
365
00:17:20,707 --> 00:17:22,375
[Coach Prime]
Timeout! Trevor!
366
00:17:22,459 --> 00:17:25,795
They're gonna take a shot.
They're gonna take a shot.
367
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,298
[Mark]
Drops, scans, looks to throw.
368
00:17:28,381 --> 00:17:29,716
Running back downfield wide open.
369
00:17:29,799 --> 00:17:31,009
Catch by end zone.
370
00:17:31,092 --> 00:17:32,510
{\an8} Touchdown.
371
00:17:32,594 --> 00:17:35,555
{\an8}I just told him
they're gonna take a shot.
372
00:17:41,561 --> 00:17:42,562
Hey.
373
00:17:44,314 --> 00:17:46,065
Pick your head up.
Don't sit down with your head down.
374
00:17:49,819 --> 00:17:53,156
{\an8}[Mark]
42-6 was the final in this one.
375
00:17:53,239 --> 00:17:55,033
{\an8} And Oregon dominated Colorado.
376
00:17:55,116 --> 00:17:56,701
{\an8} When you start pointing fingers here,
377
00:17:56,785 --> 00:17:59,704
you point at virtually every area
of the football team.
378
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:02,999
Nah. Bro.
379
00:18:03,082 --> 00:18:04,125
What the fuck?
380
00:18:05,001 --> 00:18:05,835
What example?
381
00:18:05,919 --> 00:18:07,212
What is our example here?
382
00:18:08,463 --> 00:18:10,215
What is our standard,
what is our example?
383
00:18:11,341 --> 00:18:13,218
Set the fucking standard,
that's our standard.
384
00:18:13,301 --> 00:18:14,302
Set it.
385
00:18:14,803 --> 00:18:15,970
Set the example.
386
00:18:18,473 --> 00:18:19,849
We gotta work harder.
387
00:18:19,933 --> 00:18:20,767
We gotta work harder.
388
00:18:20,850 --> 00:18:24,479
[indistinct chatter]
389
00:18:24,562 --> 00:18:25,730
[Coach Prime]
First and foremost,
390
00:18:25,814 --> 00:18:29,400
I thank the Lord for the love
in all this that transpired.
391
00:18:29,484 --> 00:18:31,694
It's a good old-fashioned butt-kicking.
392
00:18:31,778 --> 00:18:34,155
There's no excuses, no nothing.
393
00:18:34,239 --> 00:18:37,826
Um, their coaches did
a heck of a job preparing their team.
394
00:18:37,909 --> 00:18:39,494
Obviously, we didn't.
395
00:18:39,577 --> 00:18:42,956
We lost offensively, defensively,
as well as special teams.
396
00:18:43,039 --> 00:18:45,208
Seemed like they had our number.
397
00:18:45,291 --> 00:18:46,501
People around the country will say,
398
00:18:46,584 --> 00:18:48,127
"This is what they needed
to humble themselves."
399
00:18:48,211 --> 00:18:50,588
We wasn't arrogant or whatever.
We just...
400
00:18:50,672 --> 00:18:52,090
We're confident people.
401
00:18:52,173 --> 00:18:55,385
If our confidence offends your insecurity,
that's a problem with you. It's not us.
402
00:18:55,468 --> 00:18:58,555
One thing that I can say
honestly and candidly,
403
00:18:58,638 --> 00:19:00,056
this is the worst we're gonna be.
404
00:19:01,057 --> 00:19:02,058
You better get me right now.
405
00:19:03,393 --> 00:19:05,979
{\an8}I think the Oregon game
was a bit of a reality check.
406
00:19:06,062 --> 00:19:07,939
{\an8}I think that people
were really riding high,
407
00:19:08,022 --> 00:19:10,066
{\an8}thinking that, "Oh, wow,
I think this could actually be
408
00:19:10,149 --> 00:19:13,444
a national championship team,"
after only three games.
409
00:19:13,528 --> 00:19:15,363
And then they faced Oregon,
410
00:19:15,446 --> 00:19:18,449
that is actually
a national championship contender,
411
00:19:18,533 --> 00:19:21,661
and they realized, "Okay,
let's bring these back down to earth."
412
00:19:22,662 --> 00:19:24,539
[Sam] In this profession,
coach's profession,
413
00:19:24,622 --> 00:19:26,374
{\an8}there's constantly
being things thrown your way
414
00:19:26,457 --> 00:19:29,878
{\an8}that's gonna, you know, go off-plan,
things that you didn't think about.
415
00:19:29,961 --> 00:19:33,339
In stressful situations,
I don't think I've ever seen him flinch.
416
00:19:33,423 --> 00:19:36,926
If there was ever a moment
of any sort of doubt or anything,
417
00:19:37,010 --> 00:19:38,970
it was like, "Okay,
let me process what's going on.
418
00:19:39,053 --> 00:19:40,972
Let me process
what's getting thrown at us."
419
00:19:41,055 --> 00:19:43,182
But then instantly within,
you know, seconds,
420
00:19:43,266 --> 00:19:45,268
it's like, "Okay,
here's what we're gonna do.
421
00:19:45,351 --> 00:19:49,063
Here's the game plan,"
and everyone jumps on board.
422
00:19:49,147 --> 00:19:50,356
You know he's doing that for himself,
423
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,901
but he's also doing that
for everyone on the team.
424
00:19:54,861 --> 00:19:56,571
[Jimmy]
If our head coach is confident,
425
00:19:56,654 --> 00:19:58,406
we gotta be confident
right there with him.
426
00:19:58,489 --> 00:20:01,701
{\an8}You win some, you lose some,
you know you're gonna learn from it.
427
00:20:03,369 --> 00:20:05,121
[Shane]
You know, I think maybe in simple terms
428
00:20:05,204 --> 00:20:06,706
it's growing pains, but at the same time,
429
00:20:06,789 --> 00:20:10,793
{\an8}I think that's what you have to go through
to build a culture, to build a foundation,
430
00:20:10,877 --> 00:20:12,712
{\an8}to build something off of,
to make it to be great.
431
00:20:16,007 --> 00:20:19,510
{\an8}There's a lot of ball left,
and we just gotta stay consistent
432
00:20:19,594 --> 00:20:22,347
{\an8}and just do what we do
week after week, but be better.
433
00:20:22,430 --> 00:20:25,934
[hip hop music playing]
434
00:20:26,017 --> 00:20:26,851
[Xavier]
We're on to the next.
435
00:20:26,935 --> 00:20:29,771
You know, you can't keep
dwelling on what we just did in the past.
436
00:20:29,854 --> 00:20:31,189
{\an8}Forget about it.
On to the next.
437
00:20:33,942 --> 00:20:35,902
[Shedeur]
At this point, we're all grown men.
438
00:20:35,985 --> 00:20:37,028
And we're all here for a purpose.
439
00:20:37,111 --> 00:20:39,864
Each person has to make
a conscious decision
440
00:20:39,948 --> 00:20:41,783
by their self for the team.
441
00:20:41,866 --> 00:20:42,825
[man]
Come on, come on, come on.
442
00:20:42,909 --> 00:20:44,911
[Coach Prime] I understand
there's different types of winning.
443
00:20:44,994 --> 00:20:49,207
Winning is just not the summation
of what a scoreboard displays.
444
00:20:49,290 --> 00:20:52,168
I don't mind being second-guessed.
445
00:20:52,251 --> 00:20:57,757
I don't mind being booed or jeered
or having the disbelievers.
446
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:03,846
And I truly know that our team is getting
to the point where they don't either.
447
00:21:03,930 --> 00:21:06,808
They don't flinch
in the face of adversity.
448
00:21:06,891 --> 00:21:09,143
They're ready to walk into it.
449
00:21:09,227 --> 00:21:12,313
[indistinct chatter]
450
00:21:16,317 --> 00:21:19,612
[Gus] I think Deion Sanders,
more than anything, is a winner.
451
00:21:19,696 --> 00:21:24,367
Not only is he a winner in sports,
but I think he's a winner in life.
452
00:21:26,786 --> 00:21:31,165
{\an8}He is a man of service,
especially to African American young men,
453
00:21:31,249 --> 00:21:34,377
{\an8}making the congregation feel good.
454
00:21:34,460 --> 00:21:37,880
And I think that's what he's doing
with college football right now.
455
00:21:37,964 --> 00:21:39,924
[indistinct chatter]
456
00:21:40,008 --> 00:21:41,884
[Coach Prime]
Is that Curtis Franklin?
457
00:21:41,968 --> 00:21:43,428
- Curtis. It's Curtis.
- [Coach Prime] Curtis.
458
00:21:43,511 --> 00:21:45,430
That's your spiritual uncle
right there, Shedeur.
459
00:21:45,513 --> 00:21:47,598
{\an8}- What's going on, man?
- I'm sorry you gotta look down at me.
460
00:21:47,682 --> 00:21:49,475
{\an8}[indistinct chatter]
461
00:21:49,559 --> 00:21:53,938
{\an8}This is Isaac.
You know Isaac Carree that sings. Yeah.
462
00:21:54,022 --> 00:21:55,648
How do you deal with this?
463
00:21:55,732 --> 00:21:57,358
[Coach Prime]
Mm-hmm.
464
00:21:57,442 --> 00:21:59,027
[Kirk] It can't be that simple
to deal with this foolishness.
465
00:21:59,110 --> 00:22:00,820
He wants to call all the shots,
that's his problem.
466
00:22:00,903 --> 00:22:01,863
He wants to call the shots now.
467
00:22:01,946 --> 00:22:03,865
I can't believe that you gotta deal
with this foolishness.
468
00:22:03,948 --> 00:22:07,660
No, I just gotta advise him
and direct him in the right way.
469
00:22:09,328 --> 00:22:12,373
You know, when I first met Deion,
it was in 1997.
470
00:22:13,332 --> 00:22:17,170
We just really connected quickly.
It was... It was... It was crazy.
471
00:22:17,253 --> 00:22:18,379
[Coach Prime laughs]
472
00:22:18,463 --> 00:22:22,884
[Kirk] He'd been listening to my music
and really growing in his faith,
473
00:22:22,967 --> 00:22:25,720
that a lot of it was
streaming from the music.
474
00:22:25,803 --> 00:22:30,058
That's been,
you know, 25 years now.
475
00:22:32,060 --> 00:22:35,188
[Jake] Coach Prime, what he brought here
and what the culture he's bringing here,
476
00:22:35,271 --> 00:22:38,149
he understands the message
that it's much bigger than football.
477
00:22:38,232 --> 00:22:39,275
[Kirk]
God's creation.
478
00:22:39,358 --> 00:22:40,526
[Coach Prime]
You think this is work?
479
00:22:42,403 --> 00:22:44,489
It's crazy.
How can I get mad at this, man?
480
00:22:46,199 --> 00:22:49,869
I'm talking about this is crazy,
and then I'm coaching my sons?
481
00:22:49,952 --> 00:22:52,205
- Yeah. Yeah.
- My daughter plays basketball.
482
00:22:52,288 --> 00:22:54,707
I would have never fathomed
that I would be a coach
483
00:22:54,791 --> 00:22:58,961
in college football
because I just wanted to do my thing
484
00:22:59,045 --> 00:23:00,755
and retire and raise my kids
485
00:23:00,838 --> 00:23:02,965
and be the best father
I could possibly be.
486
00:23:03,049 --> 00:23:06,511
So getting into coaching was not the plan.
487
00:23:07,678 --> 00:23:10,223
But it's not about my plans.
It's about God's.
488
00:23:11,099 --> 00:23:12,433
[Kirk]
So, you know, I gotta ask you, though.
489
00:23:12,517 --> 00:23:13,518
[Coach Prime]
Mm-hmm.
490
00:23:13,601 --> 00:23:17,105
Have you had
any challenges with race?
491
00:23:18,106 --> 00:23:21,734
Only thing we've gotten here
from this ethnicity
492
00:23:21,818 --> 00:23:23,486
has been on the spiritual side.
493
00:23:23,569 --> 00:23:25,863
They don't wanna hear nothing
about no Jesus.
494
00:23:25,947 --> 00:23:28,533
We, every day,
when I meet with the coaches, we pray.
495
00:23:28,616 --> 00:23:30,201
When I meet with my team, we pray.
496
00:23:30,284 --> 00:23:34,497
And sometimes Bucky
would show it in one of the videos,
497
00:23:34,580 --> 00:23:36,249
and you talk about letters and hate.
498
00:23:36,332 --> 00:23:38,584
Bucky and I
get death threats like crazy.
499
00:23:38,668 --> 00:23:42,547
Durn near every day,
at least once a week.
500
00:23:42,630 --> 00:23:43,589
Yeah, yeah.
501
00:23:43,673 --> 00:23:44,841
Because you're
on this side of the country.
502
00:23:44,924 --> 00:23:46,509
- Yeah, it's a real liberal space.
- You know, in the South, it was...
503
00:23:46,592 --> 00:23:48,803
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The South, it was totally different.
504
00:23:48,886 --> 00:23:49,887
They understood.
505
00:23:49,971 --> 00:23:54,559
{\an8}Deion represented this long line
506
00:23:54,642 --> 00:23:57,854
{\an8}of the Black head coach preacher.
507
00:23:57,937 --> 00:24:01,566
These guys were really special,
but you didn't really know about them.
508
00:24:01,649 --> 00:24:03,151
This may have been what it looked like
509
00:24:03,234 --> 00:24:05,570
if Eddie Robinson
would have got that kind of shot,
510
00:24:05,653 --> 00:24:07,572
if Big John Merritt
at Tennessee State
511
00:24:07,655 --> 00:24:09,407
would have got that kind of shot,
you know,
512
00:24:09,490 --> 00:24:13,077
unless you were kind of in that milieu.
513
00:24:13,161 --> 00:24:16,122
But Deion, he's shown a light
514
00:24:16,205 --> 00:24:20,042
not only on HBCUs,
but the preacher tradition.
515
00:24:21,419 --> 00:24:24,005
All this Black pride, Black culture,
516
00:24:24,088 --> 00:24:26,841
you bring all that stuff here,
that's a hell of a thing.
517
00:24:26,924 --> 00:24:29,844
And when one Black person
does well,
518
00:24:29,927 --> 00:24:33,264
the entire population does well.
519
00:24:33,347 --> 00:24:35,725
I pray you keep him taller than me.
520
00:24:35,808 --> 00:24:36,642
[laughs]
521
00:24:36,726 --> 00:24:38,811
And let him always be able to see
that his daddy
522
00:24:38,895 --> 00:24:41,522
will always come in second place,
that he'll be better than his daddy.
523
00:24:41,606 --> 00:24:42,732
Yes, Lord.
524
00:24:42,815 --> 00:24:43,858
In Jesus' name.
525
00:24:43,941 --> 00:24:45,985
Ooh, that didn't go
nowhere to heaven.
526
00:24:46,068 --> 00:24:49,488
That didn't get near heaven right there.
That sure didn't get to heaven.
527
00:24:49,572 --> 00:24:52,658
I can feel that.
I ain't even feel it in my spirit.
528
00:24:54,994 --> 00:24:56,746
[Dr. Rabaka]
When I found out Coach Prime
529
00:24:56,829 --> 00:24:59,999
was coming
to the University of Colorado Boulder,
530
00:25:00,082 --> 00:25:02,543
it was like a prayer had been answered.
531
00:25:02,627 --> 00:25:05,087
{\an8}He reinvigorated me personally,
532
00:25:05,171 --> 00:25:08,049
{\an8}and I know a lot of other faculty
and not just Black faculty.
533
00:25:08,132 --> 00:25:11,052
He gave us a sense of pride.
534
00:25:11,135 --> 00:25:14,931
I have never seen him this excited,
to be perfectly honest with you.
535
00:25:16,265 --> 00:25:18,684
For Black Buffs, this is next level.
536
00:25:18,768 --> 00:25:21,646
This is our time to shine.
537
00:25:21,729 --> 00:25:26,817
Deion carried that HBCU spirit with him
at a place like Colorado.
538
00:25:26,901 --> 00:25:29,320
That's a victory for Black people.
539
00:25:30,404 --> 00:25:31,864
[Dr. Rabaka]
I think a lot of us have done our best
540
00:25:31,948 --> 00:25:36,786
to make sure that he gets a warm welcome,
knows that he's got extended family.
541
00:25:36,869 --> 00:25:38,663
I'm gonna have some of my students
train with you.
542
00:25:38,746 --> 00:25:40,373
And this is Isaiah James.
543
00:25:40,456 --> 00:25:44,293
I've got some of my trainers that was
with me in Jackson that's enrolled here.
544
00:25:44,377 --> 00:25:46,254
Two beautiful, young women,
545
00:25:46,337 --> 00:25:48,589
and I've got them coming over right now
to meet y'all,
546
00:25:48,673 --> 00:25:51,801
because they need to know y'all,
and that's a beautiful thing
547
00:25:51,884 --> 00:25:53,344
and I appreciate you.
548
00:25:53,427 --> 00:25:56,514
You're talking about
an African American coach
549
00:25:56,597 --> 00:25:59,809
in a state that I believe
is 3% African Americans,
550
00:25:59,892 --> 00:26:03,062
on a campus
which echoes the same.
551
00:26:03,187 --> 00:26:09,193
And then you throw in a guy that you say,
"He's not experienced enough,
552
00:26:09,277 --> 00:26:13,906
he's not qualified enough,
and there's no way that this experiment"...
553
00:26:13,990 --> 00:26:16,284
that's what they call it, experiment...
"can work."
554
00:26:16,367 --> 00:26:18,160
And I'll be durned.
555
00:26:18,244 --> 00:26:22,373
They discounted God's grace
and his guidance and his wisdom.
556
00:26:22,456 --> 00:26:23,833
They discounted that.
557
00:26:23,916 --> 00:26:27,211
{\an8}You know, just having the person there
in that forefront to say, like,
558
00:26:27,295 --> 00:26:29,213
{\an8}"Okay, we can do this,
like, we can be as big
559
00:26:29,297 --> 00:26:32,049
as a Nick Saban
or a Bear Bryant of the past,"
560
00:26:32,133 --> 00:26:35,219
I think, is just the biggest thing
for African Americans in general.
561
00:26:35,303 --> 00:26:37,388
[Xavier]
A lot of people are looking at this team
562
00:26:37,471 --> 00:26:40,224
like we should have came here
or we should have did this as well.
563
00:26:40,308 --> 00:26:42,310
{\an8}Like, they're paving the way
they're doing all this
564
00:26:42,393 --> 00:26:43,728
for the Black community and stuff.
565
00:26:43,811 --> 00:26:47,023
So I just feel like
we're the stepping stone,
566
00:26:47,106 --> 00:26:49,400
so we just gotta lead
by example every day.
567
00:27:01,954 --> 00:27:05,958
Fellas, there are multiple things
that we must do to win this game,
568
00:27:06,042 --> 00:27:07,918
and we jotted some of them down.
569
00:27:08,919 --> 00:27:12,631
First of all, study and prepare
570
00:27:12,715 --> 00:27:14,800
to know and understand your opponents.
571
00:27:14,884 --> 00:27:19,472
Now, some of you guys
haven't even watched a lick of film.
572
00:27:19,555 --> 00:27:21,057
How is that possible?
573
00:27:21,140 --> 00:27:23,517
But you say you wanna win.
You say you wanna be dominant.
574
00:27:23,601 --> 00:27:24,935
You say you wanna go pro.
575
00:27:25,019 --> 00:27:27,188
How is that possible?
576
00:27:27,271 --> 00:27:29,690
I promise you, those guys
that haven't watched film
577
00:27:29,774 --> 00:27:32,443
will not play a snap this week.
578
00:27:34,737 --> 00:27:37,656
Take advantage of your opportunities,
tremendous opportunities.
579
00:27:37,740 --> 00:27:40,451
You're playing in front of
12 million people every weekend.
580
00:27:40,534 --> 00:27:43,829
Probably gonna play in front
of 15 million people this weekend.
581
00:27:43,913 --> 00:27:45,331
You still ain't busted a grape.
582
00:27:45,414 --> 00:27:46,791
But this is what you want.
583
00:27:46,874 --> 00:27:49,210
You want exposure, you want all this,
we're giving it to you.
584
00:27:50,252 --> 00:27:52,004
It's an opportunity,
tremendous opportunity.
585
00:27:52,088 --> 00:27:55,758
Do you understand what happens
to your life when you go out there
586
00:27:55,841 --> 00:27:59,220
and dominate and ball out
on this Saturday against USC?
587
00:28:00,346 --> 00:28:03,599
Fellas, is there anybody in here
that don't believe?
588
00:28:03,682 --> 00:28:06,560
Is there anything you've seen on film
that you're afraid of?
589
00:28:06,644 --> 00:28:12,233
Is there any part of our opposition
that you don't feel like you can defeat?
590
00:28:13,526 --> 00:28:14,819
Well, let's go do it.
591
00:28:20,699 --> 00:28:25,496
You've got kids that wanna be
compensated as if they're in the NFL,
592
00:28:25,579 --> 00:28:28,916
but they don't wanna be
treated like they're in the NFL.
593
00:28:28,999 --> 00:28:30,709
You can't have one
without the other one.
594
00:28:30,793 --> 00:28:33,212
Because in the real world
that you're about to be
595
00:28:33,295 --> 00:28:35,923
introduced to real soon,
you gotta do your job.
596
00:28:36,841 --> 00:28:42,096
If you don't do your job,
there's gonna be a problem.
597
00:28:53,858 --> 00:28:55,651
Coach, Sean Keeler
at The Denver Post.
598
00:28:55,734 --> 00:29:01,157
You mentioned last week that Cormani
seeing the field was up to Cormani.
599
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:05,327
I wonder if you could elaborate
on what you want to see him do, one,
600
00:29:05,411 --> 00:29:07,496
and two, did he help his case...
601
00:29:07,580 --> 00:29:08,706
[Coach Prime]
Study. Prepare.
602
00:29:08,789 --> 00:29:10,458
- [Sean] ...late against...
- [Coach Prime] Study. Prepare.
603
00:29:10,541 --> 00:29:13,377
Be on time for meetings.
Show up to the durn meetings.
604
00:29:13,461 --> 00:29:16,255
Understand what we're doing as a scheme.
605
00:29:16,338 --> 00:29:19,341
Want to play this game,
desire to play this game,
606
00:29:19,425 --> 00:29:21,093
desire to be the best in this game.
607
00:29:21,177 --> 00:29:27,016
At practice, in the film room,
and on your own free time.
608
00:29:27,099 --> 00:29:29,351
So if I don't see that, that...
609
00:29:29,435 --> 00:29:31,228
You would be a fool
to put somebody out there
610
00:29:31,312 --> 00:29:32,438
and they're unprepared.
611
00:29:32,521 --> 00:29:33,856
Can't do it.
612
00:29:33,939 --> 00:29:35,900
Won't do it. Can't do it.
613
00:29:37,193 --> 00:29:38,402
[Kevin]
Cormani is coming along.
614
00:29:38,486 --> 00:29:42,948
You know, he's a freshman who has
tremendous weight on his shoulders
615
00:29:43,032 --> 00:29:43,866
{\an8}he has to come behind.
616
00:29:43,949 --> 00:29:47,828
{\an8}He's the highest-rated recruit
here at Colorado.
617
00:29:47,912 --> 00:29:51,790
He has so much expectation
from everyone here
618
00:29:51,874 --> 00:29:53,959
because we know how talented he is.
619
00:29:55,336 --> 00:29:59,715
Me and Coach Prime are on his butt daily
about doing the little things.
620
00:30:00,633 --> 00:30:01,800
[Coach Prime]
Cormani, drop the chin.
621
00:30:01,884 --> 00:30:03,886
Cormani, drop the chin.
622
00:30:05,554 --> 00:30:07,723
What I mean by drop the chin?
623
00:30:07,806 --> 00:30:09,225
Drop the chin.
624
00:30:09,308 --> 00:30:11,769
If you drop your chin,
your shoulders gotta go down.
625
00:30:11,852 --> 00:30:13,521
- Yes, sir.
- On every break.
626
00:30:13,604 --> 00:30:15,022
Just drop your chin. All right?
627
00:30:15,105 --> 00:30:16,398
All right.
628
00:30:16,482 --> 00:30:18,692
The little things
is what's gonna make him be special.
629
00:30:19,568 --> 00:30:21,487
Talk to me
about this call right here, buddy.
630
00:30:21,570 --> 00:30:24,156
Playing what over here, Cormani?
631
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:25,157
That's you.
632
00:30:26,617 --> 00:30:27,535
What's it called?
633
00:30:28,786 --> 00:30:32,039
{\an8}I gotta prove myself.
I just gotta stay competitive.
634
00:30:32,122 --> 00:30:35,334
Where they clouding to, Cormani?
635
00:30:35,417 --> 00:30:37,795
Work on my craft,
do everything I do right.
636
00:30:37,878 --> 00:30:39,463
[Kevin]
Colorado, help him out.
637
00:30:40,839 --> 00:30:42,049
So why you like this?
638
00:30:42,132 --> 00:30:45,052
[Cormani] I take it serious.
I wanna come in and be the best freshman.
639
00:30:45,135 --> 00:30:46,262
[Kevin]
Quit doing your own thing.
640
00:30:47,972 --> 00:30:51,475
[Coach Prime]
Cormani, he's gonna be that guy.
641
00:30:51,559 --> 00:30:55,563
He has a tremendous
navigational system in Travis,
642
00:30:55,646 --> 00:30:58,315
just watching
how he goes about everything.
643
00:30:58,399 --> 00:31:01,277
But just got some growing to do.
644
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,195
I got you. I got Javon.
645
00:31:05,781 --> 00:31:07,324
Oh, shit.
646
00:31:08,534 --> 00:31:09,743
[grunts] Oh.
647
00:31:10,244 --> 00:31:12,788
[grunting]
648
00:31:12,871 --> 00:31:15,040
Oh, shoot!
649
00:31:15,916 --> 00:31:17,251
[Travis]
When I'm on the field talking the most,
650
00:31:17,334 --> 00:31:19,837
{\an8}I'm out there trying to help
the guys out as much as I can
651
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,255
{\an8}because I studied the game a lot.
652
00:31:21,338 --> 00:31:23,257
The doctors wasn't fittin'
to let me play,
653
00:31:23,340 --> 00:31:26,302
so my role is to come out here
and help coach up the young guys
654
00:31:26,385 --> 00:31:28,053
like Cormani go out there
and just stay focused.
655
00:31:28,929 --> 00:31:33,058
[grunting]
656
00:31:33,142 --> 00:31:34,852
[Travis] He's a freshman,
so you gotta stay on him.
657
00:31:34,935 --> 00:31:37,605
Gotta let him know he's gotta
continue to grind, continue to work.
658
00:31:37,688 --> 00:31:39,732
And you just gotta give him
that confidence.
659
00:31:39,815 --> 00:31:41,442
Once he gets his confidence,
it's over with.
660
00:31:42,610 --> 00:31:44,820
[man] Everybody wanna be
on the Wheaties box, right?
661
00:31:44,903 --> 00:31:46,614
Get your ass up and make a poster.
662
00:31:48,324 --> 00:31:51,327
Cormani loves to hear
what Travis has to say
663
00:31:51,410 --> 00:31:53,829
about things he's doing right
and the things he's doing wrong.
664
00:31:54,705 --> 00:31:58,584
[Cormani] I look up to him, so I'm trying
to do, like, certain things he do,
665
00:31:58,667 --> 00:31:59,668
on and off the field.
666
00:31:59,752 --> 00:32:01,295
You gotta learn from the best.
667
00:32:02,171 --> 00:32:03,881
[Kevin] A lot of those guys
don't wanna let him down.
668
00:32:03,964 --> 00:32:06,216
And they feel like
in that defensive back room,
669
00:32:06,300 --> 00:32:08,260
we wasn't holding up
our end of the bargain.
670
00:32:08,344 --> 00:32:10,179
And that's what we need.
That's what leaders are.
671
00:32:10,262 --> 00:32:13,098
They don't just lead on the field,
they lead off the field.
672
00:32:13,182 --> 00:32:15,726
And that's why guys respond to him
the way they do,
673
00:32:15,809 --> 00:32:18,479
because they respect
what he brings to the game.
674
00:32:18,562 --> 00:32:20,272
They respect how he approaches the game.
675
00:32:20,356 --> 00:32:22,733
And it makes it important to those guys
who don't wanna fail him.
676
00:32:24,860 --> 00:32:25,861
[whistle blows]
677
00:32:25,944 --> 00:32:27,946
[indistinct chatter]
678
00:32:32,117 --> 00:32:35,204
[Romi] Colorado, they're 0-16
against the Trojans,
679
00:32:35,287 --> 00:32:39,375
so this is a team that Colorado
has been trying and failing to beat
680
00:32:39,458 --> 00:32:42,044
for so many years,
and I think for a lot of Buffs fans,
681
00:32:42,127 --> 00:32:45,381
this is the first time they felt
like maybe it can happen.
682
00:32:45,464 --> 00:32:49,802
Coach Prime with Shedeur Sanders
finally can end that horrible record
683
00:32:49,885 --> 00:32:51,470
before they leave the Pac-12.
684
00:32:54,098 --> 00:32:56,809
[Shedeur] We're feeling like it's still
a lot to achieve and a lot we gotta do.
685
00:32:58,018 --> 00:33:00,270
We know we just gotta do better
all the way around
686
00:33:00,354 --> 00:33:02,731
and just be...
almost have a perfect game.
687
00:33:03,565 --> 00:33:05,567
[Coach Prime]
A great challenge ahead of us.
688
00:33:05,651 --> 00:33:07,319
Just watching some films,
689
00:33:07,403 --> 00:33:10,280
clean it up and ready to go
into this week for USC.
690
00:33:10,364 --> 00:33:13,701
You gotta understand now,
David's gotta have a Goliath.
691
00:33:14,660 --> 00:33:17,871
Yeah, if David don't have a Goliath,
he don't get to use his stones.
692
00:33:17,955 --> 00:33:19,498
The team just has to be consistent.
693
00:33:21,250 --> 00:33:22,459
That's it.
694
00:33:22,543 --> 00:33:24,920
Just be consistent and we're straight.
695
00:33:26,171 --> 00:33:27,715
[Shedeur]
We're close to having success.
696
00:33:27,798 --> 00:33:30,092
We just ain't found a way to do it
each and every time.
697
00:33:30,175 --> 00:33:31,552
So we're almost there, though.
698
00:33:31,635 --> 00:33:33,846
We just gotta stay focused,
stay patient.
699
00:33:42,688 --> 00:33:44,231
[Coach Prime]
The goal is to win.
700
00:33:44,314 --> 00:33:47,526
Not once have we gone out there
when the offense, defense,
701
00:33:47,609 --> 00:33:48,777
as well as special teams,
702
00:33:48,861 --> 00:33:52,865
have been dominant from the kickoff
or the kickoff return
703
00:33:52,948 --> 00:33:53,907
to the conclusion of the game.
704
00:33:54,825 --> 00:33:56,744
When are you gonna make up your mind
705
00:33:56,827 --> 00:34:00,080
and understand that you have in this room
what it takes to win?
706
00:34:00,164 --> 00:34:02,458
We have a lack of commitment,
a lack of effort,
707
00:34:02,541 --> 00:34:04,001
and a lack of discipline.
708
00:34:04,084 --> 00:34:07,129
Discipline is the key to much success.
709
00:34:07,212 --> 00:34:10,799
We gotta be totally disciplined
in all phases tomorrow.
710
00:34:11,967 --> 00:34:15,304
We got everything we need in this room
to win this game and to be dominant.
711
00:34:15,387 --> 00:34:16,680
We're gonna do that.
712
00:34:16,764 --> 00:34:18,766
We're gonna go out there as one
and we're gonna be unified,
713
00:34:18,849 --> 00:34:20,184
and we're gonna dominate tomorrow.
714
00:34:20,267 --> 00:34:23,645
[applause]
715
00:34:25,773 --> 00:34:27,775
{\an8}[hip hop music playing]
716
00:34:33,363 --> 00:34:36,116
[Mark] Well, so much for the idea
that the luster was off the Buffaloes
717
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,494
after that sudden loss
in Oregon last week.
718
00:34:38,577 --> 00:34:42,206
{\an8} A star-studded, sold-out crowd
today at Folsom Field,
719
00:34:42,289 --> 00:34:45,626
{\an8} as the Buffaloes entertain
number eight USC here in Boulder.
720
00:34:45,709 --> 00:34:46,710
{\an8}Let's go!
721
00:34:46,794 --> 00:34:50,214
{\an8}[Kevin Garnett] It's dope to see
the beginnings of this lovely comeback
722
00:34:50,297 --> 00:34:52,633
{\an8}here in three, four years
and see how that effect
723
00:34:52,716 --> 00:34:54,468
{\an8}has translated into development.
724
00:34:54,551 --> 00:34:59,306
{\an8}Coach Prime is like Jordan,
Allen Iverson, LeBron James.
725
00:34:59,389 --> 00:35:02,184
{\an8}It's like, culturally,
guys that we stick to.
726
00:35:02,267 --> 00:35:04,520
[DeSean] When he said, the coach,
"We're watching greatness,"
727
00:35:04,603 --> 00:35:06,730
{\an8}I mean, it's bigger than life.
728
00:35:06,814 --> 00:35:09,024
{\an8}This is just a whole 'nother level.
729
00:35:09,107 --> 00:35:11,276
{\an8}Man, it's just a beautiful thing to see,
a beautiful thing to be a part of.
730
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:14,154
- [hip hop music playing]
- [crowd cheering]
731
00:35:14,238 --> 00:35:17,115
[Coach Prime] Let's go do it.
Let's be sure of ourselves.
732
00:35:22,746 --> 00:35:25,457
[Mark] Hurry up offense.
First down and ten at the 27.
733
00:35:25,541 --> 00:35:28,919
Williams snap, turns, hands off,
bounces off the near side.
734
00:35:29,002 --> 00:35:30,462
Now reverses polarity.
735
00:35:30,546 --> 00:35:32,297
Has the edge,
and he's going to the end zone.
736
00:35:32,381 --> 00:35:33,215
Touchdown.
737
00:35:33,298 --> 00:35:38,720
{\an8} Nobody had containment on the weak side
and a 27-yard run for a score.
738
00:35:39,721 --> 00:35:40,764
[Coach Prime]
Y'all ain't talking.
739
00:35:40,848 --> 00:35:41,890
Let's call stuff out.
740
00:35:41,974 --> 00:35:43,141
Call stuff out, out there.
741
00:35:43,225 --> 00:35:45,269
Y'all ain't talking.
Y'all just lining up, playing.
742
00:35:45,352 --> 00:35:46,770
Y'all talk, man.
Y'all know this stuff.
743
00:35:46,854 --> 00:35:48,063
[Mark]
A high snap yanked out.
744
00:35:48,146 --> 00:35:49,398
Sets to throw.
745
00:35:49,481 --> 00:35:50,524
Now he fakes, running near sides.
746
00:35:50,607 --> 00:35:53,735
Gonna whip it downfield
and it is caught at the 35-yard line.
747
00:35:53,819 --> 00:35:54,695
He's being chased by Woods.
748
00:35:54,778 --> 00:35:57,447
Can't get him.
Ten, five, end zone. Touchdown.
749
00:36:00,826 --> 00:36:03,662
What'd you do?
You come down when the ball is thrown.
750
00:36:05,038 --> 00:36:06,665
[Mark] Buffaloes are two of five
on third down.
751
00:36:06,748 --> 00:36:07,583
A big one right here.
752
00:36:07,666 --> 00:36:10,502
Snap to Shedeur, drops, pressure
in his face, flushed out to his right.
753
00:36:10,586 --> 00:36:13,881
Whips this one downfield
and it is picked off at the 45-yard line.
754
00:36:13,964 --> 00:36:17,301
Down the sideline to the 30,
to the 25, and out of bounds
755
00:36:17,384 --> 00:36:19,011
goes Christian Roland-Wallace.
756
00:36:19,094 --> 00:36:24,349
And that time, Shedeur Sanders intercepted
for only the second time this season.
757
00:36:26,768 --> 00:36:28,270
[Coach Prime]
Protect the ball at all costs, man.
758
00:36:28,353 --> 00:36:29,730
- Right.
- I know.
759
00:36:29,813 --> 00:36:31,773
When the play is that late, okay,
760
00:36:31,857 --> 00:36:33,567
there ain't a lot
of good things happening.
761
00:36:33,650 --> 00:36:35,235
[Mark]
Side right, Lloyd off his left hip.
762
00:36:35,319 --> 00:36:36,570
A little play action, swinging out.
763
00:36:36,653 --> 00:36:39,197
Rice, the grab, and he steps out
of the tackle of Wood's.
764
00:36:39,281 --> 00:36:40,365
End zone. Touchdown.
765
00:36:42,367 --> 00:36:45,245
These kids are not that good, man.
They're beating us. They're not that good.
766
00:36:45,329 --> 00:36:46,330
We gotta score, though.
767
00:36:46,413 --> 00:36:48,206
[Mark]
Buffaloes down 34-7
768
00:36:48,290 --> 00:36:50,208
inside two minutes
to play in the first half.
769
00:36:50,918 --> 00:36:52,836
Shedeur's out of the shotgun.
770
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:54,922
Takes the snap, drops,
he's got time.
771
00:36:55,005 --> 00:36:57,132
Flash forward. He's got a mile to run!
772
00:36:57,215 --> 00:37:01,678
{\an8} Fifteen, ten, end zone!
Touchdown, Colorado!
773
00:37:01,762 --> 00:37:02,971
[crowd cheering]
774
00:37:03,055 --> 00:37:05,891
[Mark] Well, if nothing else,
the quarterback battle in this ballgame
775
00:37:05,974 --> 00:37:06,808
has lived up to the hype.
776
00:37:06,892 --> 00:37:09,394
You've got the Heisman Trophy winner
in Caleb Williams
777
00:37:09,478 --> 00:37:11,521
and a guy that's looking
to take that trophy away,
778
00:37:11,605 --> 00:37:14,066
and both have been
outstanding this afternoon.
779
00:37:21,531 --> 00:37:23,450
Third quarter, Buffs down 34-14.
780
00:37:23,533 --> 00:37:26,954
Don't leave nothing.
This first series is everything.
781
00:37:27,037 --> 00:37:27,871
Let's end it.
782
00:37:27,955 --> 00:37:28,872
[Mark]
Williams takes the snap.
783
00:37:28,956 --> 00:37:30,374
Now he's gonna throw this time.
Sets to throw.
784
00:37:30,457 --> 00:37:32,918
Dumping over a checkdown
to Michael Jackson again.
785
00:37:33,001 --> 00:37:34,878
Come on, man.
786
00:37:34,962 --> 00:37:38,507
[commentator] That's 16
straight completions by Caleb Williams.
787
00:37:38,590 --> 00:37:40,759
Hey, hey, give me one.
Get Cormani.
788
00:37:40,842 --> 00:37:42,803
[Mark]
Shotgun snap taken by Caleb Williams.
789
00:37:42,886 --> 00:37:46,723
Lobs it downfield
and an amazing grab in traffic.
790
00:37:46,807 --> 00:37:48,517
- You gotta stay focused.
- Yes, sir.
791
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,937
Don't get in the talk with all that mess.
You gotta stay mentally in this.
792
00:37:52,020 --> 00:37:53,188
All right.
793
00:37:53,271 --> 00:37:54,523
Come on, D!
794
00:37:54,606 --> 00:37:57,275
[Mark] Well, this wasn't expected.
Look who's coming into the game right now.
795
00:37:57,359 --> 00:38:00,946
The number one cornerback recruit
in America, Cormani McClain.
796
00:38:01,029 --> 00:38:04,408
Less-than-flattering comments
earlier this week from Coach Prime
797
00:38:04,491 --> 00:38:06,201
about why he wasn't playing:
798
00:38:06,284 --> 00:38:09,079
not being ready,
not taking care of responsibilities.
799
00:38:09,162 --> 00:38:10,872
But yet he comes in this ballgame,
800
00:38:10,956 --> 00:38:13,750
and he's gonna be defending
one of the top offenses in the country.
801
00:38:13,834 --> 00:38:16,420
Money, money, money, money.
802
00:38:16,503 --> 00:38:18,046
[Mark]
But look at this right here.
803
00:38:18,130 --> 00:38:20,841
Travis Hunter,
who's been out with the injury,
804
00:38:20,924 --> 00:38:23,510
the previous year's
number one recruit in America,
805
00:38:23,593 --> 00:38:25,929
coaching his young protege
on the sidelines.
806
00:38:26,013 --> 00:38:27,764
Second down and four from the six.
807
00:38:31,351 --> 00:38:32,769
Snap, turns.
808
00:38:32,853 --> 00:38:34,396
He keeps his time.
Sidearm throw.
809
00:38:34,479 --> 00:38:37,649
End zone. And right there in his face
was Cormani McClain.
810
00:38:37,733 --> 00:38:40,986
[all cheering]
811
00:38:42,988 --> 00:38:44,781
[Coach Prime]
Hey, hey, Cormani.
812
00:38:45,866 --> 00:38:49,411
Cormani! Keep going inside.
813
00:38:49,494 --> 00:38:51,580
[Mark]
Out of the shotgun is Williams.
814
00:38:51,663 --> 00:38:54,791
The snap, drops, throws,
right-side slant.
815
00:38:54,875 --> 00:38:56,668
Rice, catch. Touchdown.
816
00:38:56,752 --> 00:38:57,878
[commentator]
Can't get any easier than that.
817
00:38:57,961 --> 00:39:00,589
[Mark] No, that was like playing catch
in the backyard.
818
00:39:01,965 --> 00:39:05,969
The hardest throw to make is a fake.
So take that. You gotta take something.
819
00:39:06,053 --> 00:39:07,429
Good job. All right.
820
00:39:11,892 --> 00:39:13,977
[Mark]
So here comes Shedeur Sanders.
821
00:39:14,061 --> 00:39:17,522
Let's see if we can give this
capacity crowd something to cheer about.
822
00:39:17,606 --> 00:39:19,816
{\an8} Fakes the handoff,
brings it on the near side.
823
00:39:19,900 --> 00:39:21,151
{\an8} Caught on the numbers.
824
00:39:21,234 --> 00:39:23,862
{\an8} Turns up to the 35, 40, 45, 50-yard line.
825
00:39:23,945 --> 00:39:25,363
Foot race down the near sideline.
826
00:39:25,447 --> 00:39:30,452
Being chased, 25, 20, 15,
and driven out of bounds on the near side!
827
00:39:30,535 --> 00:39:33,038
- [hip hop music playing]
- [crowd cheering]
828
00:39:33,121 --> 00:39:34,372
[Mark]
Been given to Hankerson.
829
00:39:34,456 --> 00:39:37,209
Turns upfield, dives in the end zone!
830
00:39:37,292 --> 00:39:39,252
{\an8} Touchdown! Touchdown, Colorado!
831
00:39:41,546 --> 00:39:42,714
Shedeur sets.
832
00:39:42,798 --> 00:39:45,717
{\an8} Gonna rifle this one down the side.
Cooper's out there.
833
00:39:45,801 --> 00:39:47,469
And he makes the grab!
834
00:39:48,303 --> 00:39:49,179
He's got a blocker.
835
00:39:49,262 --> 00:39:52,265
Running at the ten,
the five, end zone! Touchdown!
836
00:39:52,349 --> 00:39:55,185
And Colorado's pulled within 48-27.
837
00:39:57,604 --> 00:39:59,856
And it is picked off!
838
00:39:59,940 --> 00:40:02,692
Picked off by Cam'Ron Silmon-Craig!
839
00:40:02,776 --> 00:40:06,488
- [hip hop music playing]
- [crowd cheering]
840
00:40:06,571 --> 00:40:07,656
{\an8}[Mark]
Moves to his right.
841
00:40:07,739 --> 00:40:08,824
Looking in the end zone.
842
00:40:08,907 --> 00:40:10,325
Fires to the end zone!
843
00:40:10,408 --> 00:40:12,994
Diving down!
Did he hold on?
844
00:40:13,078 --> 00:40:14,079
He did!
845
00:40:14,162 --> 00:40:18,625
A star has been born
on a Saturday in Boulder!
846
00:40:18,708 --> 00:40:20,252
[all cheering]
847
00:40:20,335 --> 00:40:23,338
{\an8}[Mark]
To make it 48-33!
848
00:40:23,421 --> 00:40:26,299
Shedeur with an empty backfield.
849
00:40:26,383 --> 00:40:28,885
Takes the snap, drops, throws,
end zone, caught.
850
00:40:28,969 --> 00:40:33,473
Touchdown! Honk the horn!
Jimmy found the end zone again!
851
00:40:33,557 --> 00:40:35,433
{\an8} 48-41.
852
00:40:35,517 --> 00:40:39,896
Colorado trails by one touchdown
here in Boulder.
853
00:40:39,980 --> 00:40:42,566
[Coach Prime] We can do this, y'all.
Y'all gotta believe in yourselves.
854
00:40:42,649 --> 00:40:43,733
We can do this.
855
00:40:45,277 --> 00:40:46,695
[commentator]
So you're gonna get an onside kick.
856
00:40:46,778 --> 00:40:49,364
This is their best shot. They gotta do it.
They're out of timeouts.
857
00:40:49,447 --> 00:40:50,282
[Mark] Yep.
858
00:40:50,365 --> 00:40:52,868
[commentator] If they give SC the ball,
they're gonna take a knee three times,
859
00:40:52,951 --> 00:40:53,785
and that'll be the game.
860
00:40:55,745 --> 00:40:57,330
[Mark]
He kicks it. It's gonna get a bounce.
861
00:40:57,414 --> 00:41:01,418
And it bounces right into the hands
of one of the Trojans.
862
00:41:03,086 --> 00:41:06,798
We came a long way today, Coach.
Don't hang your head on this.
863
00:41:06,882 --> 00:41:09,509
{\an8}[Mark]
And there's the final kneel-down.
864
00:41:09,593 --> 00:41:12,929
{\an8} And so Colorado went down swinging
with one of the best teams in America.
865
00:41:18,852 --> 00:41:22,272
So the Buffaloes lose to their second
ranked opponent in a row,
866
00:41:22,355 --> 00:41:26,568
and after starting the season 3-0,
beating a top-25 team and two rivals,
867
00:41:26,651 --> 00:41:28,987
everyone's wondering,
can they refind the magic
868
00:41:29,070 --> 00:41:30,572
and get back in the win column
next week?
869
00:41:35,368 --> 00:41:37,662
[Arielle] Is this,
at least the second half team,
870
00:41:37,746 --> 00:41:40,123
is that the team
that you imagined you would have
871
00:41:40,207 --> 00:41:41,833
when you stepped foot on this field?
872
00:41:41,917 --> 00:41:46,213
No. No. The team I imagined I would have
would play four solid quarters.
873
00:41:46,296 --> 00:41:50,759
And that's what we wanna do.
We are yet to have an identity.
874
00:41:50,842 --> 00:41:52,886
I challenged them all week on,
what's our identity?
875
00:41:52,969 --> 00:41:54,346
I don't know who we are.
876
00:41:54,429 --> 00:41:55,805
From week to week,
I don't know what we're gonna do.
877
00:41:55,889 --> 00:41:57,766
You know, from practice to practice, I do.
878
00:41:57,849 --> 00:42:00,602
But we gotta
translate that into the games.
879
00:42:00,685 --> 00:42:02,979
So we're still searching
for our true identity.
880
00:42:04,064 --> 00:42:08,401
If you can't see what's coming
with CU football, you've lost your mind.
881
00:42:08,485 --> 00:42:09,736
You're just a flat-out hater.
882
00:42:09,819 --> 00:42:11,905
If you can't see what's going on
883
00:42:11,988 --> 00:42:15,158
and what's gonna transpire
over the next several months,
884
00:42:15,242 --> 00:42:16,618
something's wrong with you.
885
00:42:18,245 --> 00:42:22,123
{\an8}[man] Colorado gotta put all the flash,
all the glitter, all the glamour away.
886
00:42:22,207 --> 00:42:24,501
{\an8}Get back to the grind.
887
00:42:24,584 --> 00:42:26,670
[woman]
This game is a must win
888
00:42:26,753 --> 00:42:31,049
in order to have a potential future
in getting a bowl game.
889
00:42:31,132 --> 00:42:33,051
[Mark]
Here's the good news for Colorado:
890
00:42:33,134 --> 00:42:34,886
Travis Hunter back in the lineup.
891
00:42:34,970 --> 00:42:37,222
[Arielle] They're gonna need him
because the road ahead is tough.
892
00:42:37,305 --> 00:42:39,057
But when you gonna see that?
893
00:42:39,140 --> 00:42:40,558
- I figured it out.
- No, you ain't.
894
00:42:40,642 --> 00:42:43,603
[man] We have something
that you need to do
895
00:42:43,687 --> 00:42:45,981
and everybody else is there
and you're not there,
896
00:42:46,064 --> 00:42:46,898
there's a problem.
897
00:42:46,982 --> 00:42:48,984
[Bishop] Hopefully,
I actually put my pads on this week.
898
00:42:49,067 --> 00:42:50,944
[Coach Prime]
I kill a gnat with a sledgehammer.
899
00:42:51,027 --> 00:42:52,320
I go ahead and get it over with.
900
00:42:52,404 --> 00:42:53,488
And let's move on.
901
00:42:53,571 --> 00:42:54,990
Cut that camera.
902
00:42:56,533 --> 00:42:58,535
