Colorado is 2-5 and winless in Big 12 play after a 57-24 loss to Oklahoma State, in which the Buffaloes gave up 34 unanswered second-half points and managed just 56 rushing yards. Former LSU and NFL defensive lineman Breiden Fehoko criticized the program’s motivation and performance, while Sanders accepted responsibility, saying he had not been able to get the team on track.
A separate $50,000 claim involving Sanders and critics also drew attention. Associate Christopher Neely later clarified that Sanders’ remark about paying media personalities not to mention him was a tongue-in-cheek joke, not an actual payment offer. The controversies are unrelated, but Colorado’s continued struggles remain the central focus.
### Key Takeaways
– Coach Mo’s motivational speech resurfaced as Colorado’s on-field results worsened.
– Colorado fell to 2-5 after a 57-24 defeat, with major issues in rushing and defense.
– Sanders took responsibility for the team’s poor performance.
– Neely characterized the $50,000 remark as a joke; there is no evidence of a payment arrangement or wrongdoing by Coach Mo.
