Colorado coach Deion Sanders shared a cool gesture by his son and Cleveland Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders for a former teammate.

Staub responded by leading a six-play, 75-yard drive capped by a 21-yard touchdown pass to Dekalon Taylor in just 36 seconds to give the Buffaloes a two-score advantage entering the break. Staub came back for Colorado's first drive in the third quarter and connected with wide receiver Sincere Brown for a 71-yard score.

Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes are still adjusting to life without Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders. The Buffs opened the season with a Week 1 loss to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (27–20) before picking up their first win this past Saturday against the Delaware Blue Hens (31–7).
