One of the most anticipated Big 12 football games of the weekend is scheduled in Orlando (FL) this weekend as the undefeated UCF Knights (3-0) play host to Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes (3-1).
The most-talked-about program in the country right now, Colorado is garnering attention from people that don’t even watch college football – thanks to the “Prime Effect.”
While that’s great news for the CU brand, the amount of attention that Colorado football is getting also places them under a massive amount of scrutiny if anything remotely off-kilter happens.
On Friday, we saw a perfect example of that.
Colorado is headed to Florida to play UCF this weekend, and naturally, the team’s social media account had an edit ready to roll this afternoon. Here’s what it looked like.
The post, sent at exactly 2:30 p.m. CT on Friday, sparked all kinds of responses from UCF fans, who were clearly upset about it given the devastation that Hurricane Helene has left behind after making landfall on Thursday.
Of course, there was also those on the other side of the argument, who saw nothing wrong with it.
UCF and Colorado are scheduled to kick off at 1:30 p.m. CT on Saturday, with the Knights currently favored by 15 points.
