Coach Deion Sanders and TrendPulsehis Colorado Buffaloes are the hottest thing in college football, with both ESPN and Fox Sports taking their pregame shows to Boulder this weekend.
After winning only one game last season, Colorado is off to a 2-0 start as Sanders has completely overhauled the roster and turned things around almost instantly.
ESPN College Game Day revealed Friday that hosts Rece Davis, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard, Lee Corso and Pat McAfee will be on site as the No. 21 Buffaloes play host to in-state rival Colorado State on Saturday. It will mark the program's first appearance at Folsom Field since 1996.
Meanwhile, Fox Sports was planning to do its Big Noon Kickoff show from Champaign, Illinois, where the Fighting Illini are hosting Penn State. But the lure of Sanders' magnetic personality and the Buffs' rapid turnaround were too enticing to pass up – even though the crew was just in Boulder this past weekend for the Buffs' 36-14 win over Nebraska.
It will mark the first time Fox Sports has ever done Big Noon Kickoff from the site of a game the network isn't broadcasting.
ESPN will have the in-state showdown, with kickoff set for 8 p.m. ET on Saturday.
