Colorado Buffaloes face quarterback decision ahead of Texas Tech game

Colorado Buffaloes head coach Deion Sanders faces a critical juncture as his team prepares for a high-stakes matchup against No. 12 Texas Tech. Following a period of instability, including a 41-7 loss to Northwestern and a 23-13 defeat at Baylor, Sanders is evaluating his quarterback position to revitalize a struggling offense.

Reports indicate that five-star prospect Julian Lewis may be benched in favor of Isaac Wilson. Sanders has stated that the decision will be finalized during practice, emphasizing that the chosen quarterback must possess confidence, a strong grasp of the offense, and leadership within the huddle. While Lewis provided stability late last season, the team's high-tempo ‘Go-Go’ system has struggled to find consistency this year.

The upcoming game against Texas Tech serves as a pivotal moment for the Buffaloes' standing in the Big 12 Conference. Colorado enters the contest as an underdog against a Red Raiders team that has secured wins over Oregon State and Houston.
