BOULDER, Colo. — On Election Day 2024, Deion Sanders might’ve been the most popular man in America pleading to not have your vote. Not your top-25 vote, anyway.

“We don’t care about (any) rankings,” the second-year Colorado football coach said Tuesday before the College Football Playoff committee ranked his Buffs 20th. “Rankings (are) like a tease, man. .

.. “Rankings can fool you.

It can get you in a situation where you start thinking that you are that. And we don’t buy into that. We know who we are.

“(By) Week 11 in college football. If you don’t know who you are by now, something’s wrong. .

.. So we can’t be fooled for that foolishness.

That’s why I said, ‘Don’t rank us.’ We’re better without it. We’re cool.

” They’re good. Dang good. The clever coaches know when and how to use the underdog card.
