Shedeur Sanders addresses hostile Lubbock atmosphere

The Jones AT&T Stadium in Lubbock was rocking. Texas Tech fans indulged in their tradition of throwing tortillas on the field during the game when the Buffs turned up the heat, prompting coach Joey McGuire to ask them to stop.

After the game, Shedeur Sanders interacted with the Red Raiders band, even performing with them before signing a fan's tortilla chip as a keepsake. During his postgame news conference, he explained why he thrived in the hostile atmosphere.

"They excited to see us in person," Shedeur Sanders said. "I think this is the last year me, Travis (Hunter), Shilo (Sanders) and a lot of players are able to be traveling around and interact with a lot of these college kids or young kids in general.

"It's kind of cherish the moment, understand it's game by game and show love to the fans because that could have been the last time ever seeing us and we always want to leave a great impression."

The Colorado Buffaloes have thrived in adverse conditions this year reacting to setbacks in games to win. After going down 13–0 against Texas Tech, Sanders and the Heisman-contending Travis Hunter stepped up and started the Buffs' comeback.

Sanders revealed how differently the current Colorado team reacts to adversity vis-a-vis last year's team.

"We thrive on that (adversity)," Sanders said. "We've always been in adverse situation. Everywhere we go. Some of the typing and the pens and the paperwork puts us in an adverse situation. It's not one time that I'm not getting a reminder on my phone that someone is putting us in adversity. These young men, they were bread for this man. I'm proud of them, I really am, for what they're doing."

The Buffaloes have their destiny in their hands, and Sanders and Co. have shown the necessary composure to make an unexpected run to the Big 12 Championship Game.
