The CU Buffs’ season has been marked by resilience, determination, and standout performances, none more impressive than those by Shedeur Sanders, Deion’s son and the Buffs’ star quarterback.

Faces of Boulder this season reflect the heart and soul of the Buffs – students, alumni, and lifelong fans who bleed black and gold. Whether it’s the sea of fans rushing the field after a big win or the tailgates that feel like family reunions, the bond between the Buffs and Boulder’s community is undeniable. With a bowl game ahead and Deion’s transformative vision leading the way, the Buffs are just getting started – and the best fans in the country will be right there with them every step of the way.
