Deion Sanders Calls Collapse Against Stanford 'Pathetic'

Stanford came back from down 29 points against Colorado on Friday

The college football world is still buzzing about Stanford's historic comeback this past Friday against Colorado.

The Cardinal came back from down 29 points and ended up winning by a score of 46-43. They got a historic showing from Pac-12 Player of the Week, wide receiver Elic Ayomanor who racked up 13 catches for 294 yards and three touchdowns from 97, 60, and 30 yards out. 

The win ended a four-game losing skid for Stanford, and the loss for Colorado was not only their biggest blown lead in program history but also made things a lot more difficult for them to make it to a bowl game this season. It also was a showing that head coach Deion Sanders wasn't too thrilled with, as after the game he went as far as to say what they did was "pathetic" and that all of the love they had been getting on social media would now flip to criticism.

Of Colorado's five remaining games, three are against ranked opponents with the other two being Washington State who is getting votes, and Arizona who beat Washington State by 38.

For Stanford, the win was one that appeared to be a program-shifting win, and maybe a moment we look back on years from now.
