Video: Shedeur Sanders Tells CSU QB 'You Can't F--k With Me' After Not Shaking Hands

It's safe to say Shedeur Sanders had some extra motivation while leading his Colorado Buffaloes to a 28-9 victory over Colorado State on Saturday.

Colorado State quarterback Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi approached the Buffaloes star at midfield after the game and extended his hand, but Sanders refused the handshake and said, "you were talking that s- -t on Instagram" and "you can't f--k with me" (36:30 mark)

Fowler-Nicolosi walked away and said, "Keep talking."

Colorado clearly kept receipts coming into the contest, as head coach Deion Sanders referenced the "disrespect" his team felt during his postgame press conference.

"Wonderful game," he told reporters. "Personal game. Heartfelt game. Emotional game. They kinda make it like that. The disrespect was uncalled for during the week. We knew coming into the game it would be a bit personal. I just pray that our kids would never act in that matter cause y'all would have a field day with it.

"Great darn victory. Offensive line was phenomenal. The defense picked up right where it picked up in the second half of last week's game. We're upset with the last touchdown we gave up."

This is the second straight game between the two in-state rivals that featured trash talk and a chippy environment.

Colorado won last season's matchup 43-35 in double-overtime in a memorable game after Colorado State head coach Jay Norvell took a jab at his counterpart for wearing sunglasses and a hat during interviews. With that as the backdrop, Shilo Sanders celebrated an interception returned for a touchdown by putting on sunglasses on the sideline last year.

As for this season's game, Shedeur Sanders was brilliant and went 36-of-49 for 310 yards, four touchdowns and zero interceptions. The Buffaloes defense also forced four Colorado State turnovers and performed at a much higher level than last week's loss to Nebraska.

The question now is whether Colorado can build on this after losing eight of its final nine games last season following the emotional win over the Rams. A similar collapse would leave the program asking plenty of questions after going 4-8 last season.

For now, though, the Buffaloes are celebrating after earning in-state bragging rights.
