The Buffaloes scraped past the Sun Devils in their Week 6 clash and it gave Deion Sanders a chance to fulfill a promise he made after his Week 5 loss.

Deiondra had gifted Coach Prime the shiny diamond whistle last week after the Buffaloes fell to the USC Trojans at Folsom Field.

Prime, at that time, had said that he would wear it after winning a game with the team. And now, he has fulfilled that promise. The Buffaloes had to fight hard for the victory but in the end, they all counted one.

Colorado is back on track with Arizona State win

The Buffaloes went into week 6 on the back of two heartbreaking losses in weeks 4 and 5. The team first faced humiliation at the hands of the Oregon Ducks, their first defeat of the season.

They then fell to the USC Trojans in what was almost an epic comeback on their part. So pressure was building on the team to get back to winning ways.

Colorado did exactly that against the Sun Devils on Saturday. They had to fight off their opponents in an intense battle but in the end, they got the job done. Alejandro Mata's last-minute field goal gave the Buffaloes a 27-24 win.

The Buffaloes now have four wins under their belt under Deion Sanders. They next take on the struggling Stanford Cardinals in another game where they are favorites to win. Thus, the diamond whistle might just become a regular accessory in Coach Prime's gameday outfit.
