After Deion Sanders and Colorado’s loss to Oregon, Shedeur Sanders’ Heisman chances significantly decline.

On Saturday at Autzen Stadium, the Oregon Ducks humiliated the Colorado Buffaloes.

Colorado suffered its first loss of the season and the first of the Deion Sanders era as Oregon defeated Colorado 42-6 to put an end to the Cinderella tale.

The entire Colorado team was outplayed on Saturday, including the offense, defense, and special teams.

Shedeur Sanders, Colorado’s quarterback, who is arguably the team’s most important player, completed 22 of 33 passes for 159 yards and one touchdown, hurting his chances of winning the Heisman Trophy.

According to DraftKings SportsBook, Sanders had +1800 odds to win the Heisman heading into Saturday’s game.
After Oregon’s lopsided defeat, his odds of winning the trophy have increased to +6000.

Moreover, Colorado’s chances of winning the national championship fell.
According to DraftKings SportsBook, the Buffaloes had +11000 odds to win the championship going into the game on Saturday.
The current odds are +25000.

It is undeniable that Sanders’ appointment as head coach has significantly improved the Colorado program over the past year, but Saturday’s defeat shows that there is still much work to be done.

When the Buffaloes play Caleb Williams and the USC Trojans next weekend, the competition will only get tougher for them.
