Locked On Buffs - Daily Podcast on Colorado Football and Basketball

Turmoil engulfs the Colorado Buffaloes as frustrations mount around Deion Sanders’ unraveling tenure. Leadership issues, persistent organizational missteps, and relentless turnover on the coaching staff are accelerating doubts about Sanders’ hold on the program. Reports of a crucial playbook left behind at a hotel bar and in-game confusion—especially on special teams where Colorado failed to even field enough players—underscore a growing lack of attention to detail, with discipline crumbling and accountability in short supply. As the Buffs stumble in a demoralizing loss to Texas Tech, questions swirl over whether Sanders is losing his pulse on the team. Dismissals due to behavior, repeated coordinator changes (four OCs and two DCs in as many years), and no clear specialist approach at head coach point to a program in disarray. Is Deion Sanders simply not used to this level of adversity, or are the wheels coming off for good? The Julian Lewis quarterback saga only intensifies the tension. After a benching that may spell the end of Lewis’ time in Boulder, Deion Sanders’ evasive postgame comments suggest deeper behind-the-scenes conflict, with Lewis’ future and development hanging in the balance. With the offense stalled and no clear solution at QB, the Buffs face daunting matchups ahead, and optimism has faded into disbelief at how quickly things have fallen apart.

Deion Sanders faces mounting pressure as the Colorado Buffaloes search for answers ahead of a pivotal clash with Baylor. Can Coach Prime withstand the scrutiny after bold roster decisions and inconsistent playmakers? Kevin Borba examines the fallout from the Buffs’ turbulent start, highlighting their struggles to establish a reliable WR3, Julian Lewis's growing pains at quarterback, and the team’s urgent need for offensive spark—potentially by moving Boo Carter to the attack. The Baylor matchup looms large, with Dave Aranda’s defensive prowess posing a serious challenge for a Colorado offense averaging just 10.5 points against Power 4 opponents. Key topics include the quarterback controversy between Julian Lewis and Baylor’s DJ Lagway, the importance of getting Danny Scudero healthy, and whether Colorado’s shifting identity can revive the “juice” of the Coach Prime era. Can the Buffaloes reclaim momentum and silence the critics, or will mounting pressure turn Prime into the villain for his roster decisions? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

With Colorado preparing for a marquee test against Big Ten foe Northwestern, the narrative is shifting as respect for Deion Sanders and the revamped Buffs program grows. Comments from Northwestern head coach David Braun and key players reveal a new level of acknowledgment—this is no longer the Colorado squad teams could overlook. As Colorado eyes Top 25 contention, every snap in Evanston holds postseason implications. Kevin Borba breaks down the Wildcats’ physical approach, their prideful running backs, and what Joseph Hyman’s confidence means for Colorado’s defense. He highlights the improvements on both sides of the ball—top 50 in offense, massive defensive strides—and drives home just how high the stakes are with national perception and rankings in play. Who needs to step up?  Kevin Borba spotlights five Buffs primed to make a statement: Jason Stokes in the secondary, Micah Welch looking to own the RB1 spot, Lamont Lester as the pass rush catalyst, Julian Lewis seeking next-level consistency at QB, and the Joseph Williams/DeAndre Moore duo aiming to offset receiver injuries. Bold predictions? Turnovers from CU’s fired-up secondary, a resurgent run defense holding Northwestern under 100 yards, another 100+ yard explosion from Micah Welch, and a vertical attack unleashed by Julian Lewis.  The Buffs are relishing the underdog role—but are sporting a “punch-you-in-the-mouth” mentality not seen in years past. Locked On Buffs captures the stakes, the smashmouth challenge, and why Colorado’s chase for respect is far from finished as Big 12 play beckons. Will the Buffs seize the national spotlight with a statement road win? Let the proving ground drama begin.

Colorado rolls to a dominant 52-21 victory over Weber State, but Deion Sanders is not having it. Despite career-best numbers from Julian Lewis and weapons everywhere on offense, the Buffs’ locker room celebration is cut short by Kevin Borba’s candid recap: untimely penalties, sloppy special teams, and dangerous lapses on defense leave Coach Prime furious. His public postgame critique—“you definitely ain’t no dog. You ain’t no killer. You definitely ain’t no pro”—sets a new tone in Boulder, demanding a higher standard even after a 31-point win. Kevin Borba dives into why Coach Prime’s tough love is the wake-up call Colorado needs, breaking down the preventable mistakes plaguing the Buffs: 13 penalties for 112 yards, costly special teams errors, and missed assignments that opened the door for Weber State’s big plays. With a potent ground game led by Micah Welch and breakout defensive moments from Ja’Ja Boyd and Jason Stokes, the talent is there—but can discipline catch up in time for a rugged Northwestern team? With a Big Ten road test looming, roster tweaks underway, and Deion’s expectations crystal clear, this episode explores how Colorado can tune up the details to stay undefeated and avoid last year’s pitfalls. Will Coach Prime’s relentless pursuit of perfection turn the Buffs into true contenders? Or will the same mistakes haunt them on the road against Northwestern? Buckle up—Colorado’s real season starts now.     Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! KALSHI For a limited time, Download Kalshi and use code  Locked On  to get $25 when you trade $25. Kalshi.

Colorado’s football rebuild takes a surprising turn as the Buffs start thriving after losing highly-touted lineman Jordan Seaton to LSU’s $4 million NIL offer. While many expected disaster, Colorado’s new-look offensive line powered a statement win over Georgia Tech, dominating the trenches and igniting hope for a return to Big 12 contention. Is the Buffs’ collective approach worth more than a single superstar?

Colorado Buffaloes silence doubters with a statement win over Georgia Tech, triggering a rare public apology from one of their harshest critics. Are more national voices about to eat crow as Deion Sanders’ squad showcases unexpected physicality and discipline?

With a matchup against Weber State looming before a Power 4 road test at Northwestern, the discussion turns to critical areas for improvement as Colorado looks to prove this is no fluke.

Big 12 teams face early-season pressure as Baylor preps for a high-stakes showdown against Auburn in the Aflac Kickoff. Can DJ Lagway ignite the Bears’ offense and save Dave Aranda’s job, or will Auburn’s transfer-heavy roster under Alex Golesh hold the upper hand?

The conversation focused on Oklahoma State’s revamped lineup, raising questions about defensive improvement and the upside of bringing in nearly an entire staff from North Texas. UCF’s Alonzo Barnett emerges as a sleeper to watch, while the hosts debate whether parity in the Big 12 will help or hurt the conference’s playoff hopes. Plus, bold predictions for BYU, Kansas State, and Arizona State set the stage for a wild opening weekend. Which teams are poised for a quick rise—and which might be overrated?

Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes storm into Week 1 with confidence and a tactical edge over Georgia Tech, thanks to the unpredictable go-go offense and a roster overhaul that’s kept even the savviest scouts guessing. With five fresh starters on the offensive line and a wide-open running back rotation, Colorado’s playbook projects chaos—leaving Georgia Tech to prepare for every possibility. Kevin Borba dives deep into why the Buffs’ new underdog mentality and strategic secrecy could tilt the scales in their favor, drawing eerie parallels to the shocking TCU upset last season. The episode compares Julian Lewis and Alberto Mendoza in detail, dissecting each quarterback’s strengths, limitations, and what it’ll take for either to break out in this high-stakes showdown. From the behind-the-scenes gamesmanship—three starting Georgia Tech running backs?!—to Kevin Borba’s bold calls on how Colorado wins (bottling up the run and rattling Mendoza) or falls (early QB struggles for Lewis and a shaky front seven), the stakes couldn’t be higher. National pundits have written off the Buffs, but could Deion and his rebuilt squad be primed for another statement win? This episode unpacks all the keys to victory, pivotal matchups, and why Colorado’s resurrection might just shock the world once more. Do you believe?

Julian Lewis Named Colorado’s QB1, Go-Go Offense Hype, & Bold Georgia Tech Predictions | Locked on Buffs The wait is over: Colorado officially announces Julian Lewis as the starting quarterback, quelling chatter and confirming what insiders long expected. The five-star USC flip enters Week 1 vs. Georgia Tech as the face of the revamped Buffaloes, with eyes on living up to the NIL hype and ushering in a new era in Boulder. But can he deliver under the bright lights and the pressure of a “homecoming” road trip? Kevin Borba and Jay Smith dissect Lewis’s readiness, why fans may have overreacted to the delayed announcement, and what makes this Georgia Tech opener eerily reminiscent of the headline-grabbing TCU upset of 2023. Calm command, deep-ball effectiveness, and early-season nerves are all in play as Jay emphasizes the need for Lewis to show poise, push the ball downfield, and leverage his precision in Brendan Marion’s quarterback-friendly “Go-Go” offense. Beyond X’s and O’s, the conversation pivots to why Brendan Marion’s obsessive preparation and high-voltage mentality could serve as Colorado’s X factor—not only for the opener but for a breakthrough campaign. Could Marion be a head coach in waiting if “Coach Prime” ever steps aside? Kevin Borba lays out three bold predictions: the Buffs rushing for 100+ yards for the first time in the Prime era, forcing three turnovers, and beating Georgia Tech by double digits. Jay rates each on the “crazy” scale, pushing back on turnover luck but admitting the opener is as unpredictable as they come. Both agree: Week 1 is college football’s biggest mirage, but a statement win in Atlanta could light a spark for this new-look squad. Will Julian Lewis seize his moment and silence the doubters? Can the Go-Go offense click right away? And is Colorado primed to pull off another season-opening stunner? All that and more in this high-energy episode of Locked on Buffs.

Fall camp stirs up drama and hope in Boulder as Kevin Borba delivers an inside look at which Colorado Buffaloes are surging—and which transfers and depth chart contenders are lagging behind. Is Zach Atkins truly ready to headline a revamped tight end room, or is hidden-gem Fisher Clements about to steal the show? Micah Welch’s return ignites the running back battle, while the secondary unit claims early praise with high-effort, hard-hitting names like Cree Thomas, Boo Carter, and Makari Vickers fighting for key roles. But not everything’s settled in Buffs Nation. Kevin Borba voices concern over standout transfers struggling to meet expectations and a rash of injuries that already has critical units—receiver, defensive line, and even the promising Julian Lewis—on health watch.  As Kevin Borba highlights, roster depth remains a mystery, especially at linebacker and on both lines, with big questions looming ahead of a nationally televised opener at Georgia Tech. Off the practice field, Buffs alums are battling for roster spots across the NFL. Will Shepherd makes noise with the Packers, Le’Jonte Wester and Jimmy Horn look to earn their stripes as versatile playmakers and return specialists, and Shedeur Sanders pushes for snaps in a crowded Browns quarterback room. With the season kicking off soon, Kevin Borba lays out the unknowns that could define Colorado’s 2024 campaign. Can the offensive line turn a long-standing weakness into a strength? Is the defense finally ready to stop the run? And most of all, is JuJu Lewis ready for the spotlight in his own Georgia homecoming? Fall camp’s answers—and Week 1’s revelations—will set the tone for one of the most intriguing Buffs seasons yet.  Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/locked-on-buffs Locked On College Conferences, HBCU, Basketball & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnCollege #Colorado #DeionSanders #ColoradoBuffs #collegefootball  Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!  KALSHI For a limited time, Download the Kalshi app and use code [LOCKEDON] to get $10 when you trade $10. .

Two of college football’s most polarizing coaches are in the crosshairs as Kevin Borba and Isaac Shade dive into the futures of Deion Sanders and Bill Belichick. As national media speculation heats up, are these high-profile names truly on the verge of being ousted, or does local support and administrative backing paint a different picture? Both Colorado and UNC sit at a modest 4.5-win prediction for the season, but the pressure-cooker environments couldn’t be more different. Kevin Borba unpacks the gravity of Deion’s meteoric rise and fall—from a 9-win breakthrough to a rocky path riddled with roster overhauls and national scrutiny—while Isaac Shade breaks down how Belichick’s enigmatic NFL legacy, behind-the-scenes drama, and the turbulence of a grueling schedule have fans and boosters on edge.  Expect candid debate on which coach is most likely to be fired first, whether making a bowl game is enough to turn down the temperature, and how new athletic directors on both campuses might influence the fate of these massive personalities. The guys offer bold predictions—taking the over for Colorado and the under for UNC—and riff on what it’ll take for either program to steady the ship in an era of outsized fame and unrelenting expectations.  This episode is can’t-miss for fans invested in college football’s wildest sidelines, where a single misstep could topple even the biggest brands. Will Deion and Belichick silence the doubters, or will this season mark the end of an era in Boulder or Chapel Hill? Strap in—this Crossover set the stage for one of the wildest coaching races in the country.  Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/locked-on-buffs Locked On College Conferences, HBCU, Basketball & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnCollege #Colorado #DeionSanders #ColoradoBuffs #CollegeFootball     Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Deion Sanders’ future at Colorado is under intense scrutiny as speculation swirls about his job security. Amid heated debate, the spotlight is on Sanders’ need to convert hype into on-field wins, with questions about whether his recent overhaul—hiring a new coaching staff, boosting recruiting, and showing renewed commitment—will buy him enough time to prove he’s building more than a sideshow. The conversation pivots to Baylor’s Dave Aranda and Cincinnati’s Scott Satterfield, with both sitting firmly in the Big 12’s hot seat crosshairs. While Sanders commands national attention, the threat of early-season firings looms larger for underperforming programs, sparking debate about which coaches are at greatest risk of being ousted by Halloween.  In a major off-field storyline, the Big 12’s much-hyped sponsorship deal with Monster Energy is taking flak. Despite aggressive branding efforts and promises of fresh revenue, the $1 million-per-team patch partnership is widely panned as a “monster whiff,” paling in comparison to lucrative Big Ten deals and drawing criticism for its garish visual impact. The episode questions whether Brett Yormark’s bold marketing moves can keep pace with the power conferences, or if the Big 12 is simply grasping at straws. To close, the hosts dish out their Big 12 superlatives, forecasting surprise teams, coaches on the brink, and quarterbacks ready to shape the race.  As the season churns toward kickoff, the College Crossover crew breaks down the names and narratives set to define the new-look conference race.  Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/locked-on-buffs Locked On College Conferences, HBCU, Basketball & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnCollege  #Colorado #DeionSanders #ColoradoBuffs #collegefootball  Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!  KALSHI For a limited time, Download the Kalshi app and use code [LOCKEDON] to get $10 when you trade $10. .

Has the Coach Prime effect really run its course in Boulder? Kevin Borba fires back at recent headlines claiming Colorado's luster has faded, breaking down the real story behind viewership drops and why the Buffs are still a national draw. With Colorado football ranking top-30 in TV eyes despite last year’s rocky record, is the media narrative missing the point about Deion Sanders' ongoing impact?  Fall camp is almost in the books, but huge position battles remain unsettled. Kevin Borba drills into the nickelback showdown, the scramble for the fourth linebacker, Colorado’s wide-open running back competition, and crucial decisions looming on the offensive line and pass rush.  Who will step up and claim roles as Georgia Tech prep ramps up? Plus, another big win off the field: Progressive Insurance jumps in as a key sponsor, boosting Colorado’s profile (and bank account) as the athletic department plots its next leap forward under new AD Fernando Lobo. Kevin Borba details why this signals smart business for the Buffs' brand—whether or not Coach Prime is around for the long haul. Is the Prime effect truly dead, or is Boulder still at the center of college football’s biggest spotlight? Kevin Borba says don’t believe the hype—Colorado’s story is very much alive, and the next chapter is about to unfold.   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Colorado quarterback Julian “Juju” Lewis set off alarm bells after missing multiple practices with an undisclosed injury, just as Buffs fans look ahead to the Week 1 showdown against Georgia Tech. While Kevin Borba quickly assures the faithful that Juju has returned to practice and is slinging the ball again, questions linger about his rapport with a brand-new offensive line and receiver corps — especially with key targets like Danny Scudero and Cam Perry also banged up.  Is Colorado ready for the opener, or are depth concerns creeping in? Kevin Borba breaks down the Buffs’ quarterback room, highlighting backup Isaac Wilson’s gunslinger mentality and Colorado’s quietly strong depth compared to the rest of the Big 12. Meanwhile, off-field drama looms as Coach Prime could be tangled up in a courtroom, subpoenaed to testify at his son Shiloh Sanders’ bankruptcy trial the same week as the opener. Will legal distractions sideline the Buffs’ head coach, or will the judge cut some slack?  Camp competition ramps up as veterans and transfers scrap for starting jobs at nearly every spot. Running back is suddenly wide open, with Jaquale Smith overtaking transfer standout Richard Young down the depth chart. On defense, new faces on the line and in the secondary are grabbing headlines, while the offensive front remains in flux with surprise candidates like Sean Kinney pushing for starting center. With injuries already mounting and so many new pieces to integrate, Kevin Borba delivers the essential updates Buffs fans need before Georgia Tech arrives — and before another off-field curveball hits Boulder.   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!   KALSHI For a limited time, Download the Kalshi app and use code [LOCKEDON] to get $10 when you trade $10. .   The Game Don't miss this chance to celebrate 40 years of The Game with 40% off your entire order. Visit https://TheGameCaps.com  and use promo code  LOCKEDON at checkout. 5-Hour ENERGY Bring on the sweetness with Cotton Candy 5-hour ENERGY®️ shots—available online now at https:/5hourENERGY.com  or on Amazon.

Colorado football is turning heads as Coach Prime and the Buffaloes gear up to silence skeptics ahead of the 2026 season. With unfriendly preseason projections and critics doubting their Big 12 readiness, a wave of returning talent—including Chauncey Gooden, Quentin Gibson, Makari Vickers, and Boo Carter—are making major leaps, fueled by a stronger culture and renewed focus. Kevin Borba details how an overhauled linebacker corps, featuring standouts like Gideon Lampron and Leon LaFau, could be the key to transforming Colorado’s defense from last year’s liability into this season’s biggest strength. The show dives deep on the team’s improved mentality, off-field growth, and why additions like play-caller Brendan Marion could help unlock the roster’s full potential. With Coach Prime more “bought in” than ever and the Buffs thriving on being underrated, Kevin Borba lays out why this team is poised to exceed lowly expectations, chase bowl eligibility, and spark a new era of Buffaloes football. Is Colorado really destined to finish near the Big 12 basement, or will they turn the national narrative upside down?   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!   KALSHI For a limited time, Download the Kalshi app and use code [LOCKEDON] to get $10 when you trade $10. .   The Game Don't miss this chance to celebrate 40 years of The Game with 40% off your entire order. Visit https://TheGameCaps.com  and use promo code  LOCKEDON at checkout.

With the college football season on the horizon, Deion Sanders and Colorado are in the thick of three crucial position battles that could redefine the Buffs’ trajectory. Nearly every starting spot is up for grabs—with 20 potential new starters—including fierce competition at corner, running back, and wide receiver. Can Cree Thomas lock down CB1 status? Will veterans like RJ Johnson and rising transfers like Jason Stokes step up? And who emerges in the ground game with Damien Henderson and Jaquell Smith making noise in the backfield?

Georgia Tech’s shaky quarterback situation, a lethal duo in Justice Haynes and Malachi Hosley, and Colorado’s revamped run defense all set the stage for a must-watch opener. The Buffs’ offensive X-factors, defensive adjustments under Chris Marv, and depth concerns on the line have fans buzzing—is CU truly ready for this next leap? On the recruiting front, a new QB target emerges in 4-star 2028 prospect Anthony Turner, showcasing the staff’s eye for the future, while unfortunate injury news for rising edge Drew Sapp shakes up the incoming class.

Kevin Borba of Locked On Buffs takes a closer look at the growing questions surrounding Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes heading into the 2026 college football season. CBS Sports recently ranked Sanders No. 13 among the Big 12’s 16 head coaches, putting Coach Prime near the bottom of the conference after Colorado’s disappointing 3-9 season in 2025. Why has Deion Sanders’ stock fallen so dramatically? Kevin breaks down the reasoning behind CBS Sports’ ranking, the expectations surrounding Coach Prime entering Year 4, and whether Sanders can prove his critics wrong with a bounce-back season in Boulder.  The discussion also dives into some of the most important injuries impacting Colorado heading into the season. With the Buffaloes looking to build a more competitive roster and replace key production from previous seasons, staying healthy could be one of the biggest factors determining how far this team can go. Kevin also examines the bigger picture surrounding Colorado football, including the pressure on Sanders, the changes to the coaching staff, the development of quarterback Julian Lewis, and what the Buffaloes need to accomplish to change the national perception of the program. Is Deion Sanders really one of the worst coaches in the Big 12? Or is CBS Sports overlooking what Coach Prime can accomplish with Colorado in 2026?  Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!  KALSHI For a limited time, Download the Kalshi app and use code [LOCKEDON] to get $10 when you trade $10. .

Drama heats up in Boulder as fights steal headlines at Colorado’s fall camp, leaving fans to wonder: is discipline going to derail the Buffs in 2026, or is this just off-season intensity reaching its boiling point? Kevin Borba unpacks the daily brawls, questions whether Colorado’s recent penalty struggles will return, and explains why he isn’t pressing the panic button—yet. Injury woes hit hard, with Danny Scudero and Cam Perry both banged up and the always-secretive Coach Prime offering few concrete updates.  Will Taj White’s absence shake up Colorado’s offensive line rotation? Who steps up with top receivers sidelined? Kevin Borba highlights Quinn Gibson, DeAndre Moore, and Quanell Farrakhan as under-the-radar candidates looking to seize their moment. Plus, Kevin Borba dives into Coach Prime’s push for a spring scrimmage against Air Force, arguing that a joint practice could toughen Colorado’s discipline, boost run defense, and give the team a true measuring stick before the opener. Could training with the disciplined Falcons finally help the Buffs turn the corner physically and mentally? As the season inches closer, roster health, avoiding dumb penalties, and building championship habits top the agenda. Is rage-baiting a real threat, or will Colorado shake off its fall camp rust and prove the doubters wrong?  Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms… 🎧 https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/locked-on-buffs Locked On College Conferences, HBCU, Basketball & More 🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnCollege #Colorado #DeionSanders #ColoradoBuffs #collegefootball Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.  Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!  KALSHI For a limited time, Download the Kalshi app and use code [LOCKEDON] to get $10 when you trade $10. .
