The Colorado Buffaloes are set to enter the Valero Alamo Bowl in true Coach Prime fashion. When the team takes on BYU on Dec. 28, they'll do so on a modified, custom Boeing 777-200 jet complete with team and Rolls-Royce branding .
Team quarterback Shedeur Sanders has the luxury of sitting in his own cubicle up front with a select handful of players. The retired Boeing 777-200 has Rolls-Royce Trent 800 engines and a paint scheme inspired by Colorado's gray home alternative jerseys. The exterior features Buff's branding, with a bold Buffaloes logo on the tail and Deion Sanders ’ signature mantra, "Believe," smacked on the plane alongside the Rolls-Royce logo on the jet engines.
If reports are correct, the particular aircraft has a history in football. Information online indicates that it was previously used by the Arizona Cardinals before the NFL team upgraded its fleet. Registered as 865DA under the Wilmington Trust Co.
Trustee, the plane is part of a leasing program, a financially sensible move for the Buffs. Shedeur Sanders makes feelings clear on NFL Draft 'tanking' demands Deion Sanders addresses 'package deal' theory surrounding Shedeur's NFL Draft prospects Coach Sanders didn't shy away from joking about the stakes of their bowl game, telling his players, "If we don’t handle our business, we'll be on Southwest on the way back." Coach Prime will be fighting history as the Buffaloes have played in 29 bowl games in their NCAA history with a record of 12–17.
The Boeing.
