  "account": "Colorado head coach Deion Sanders expressed disappointment in his team's performance following a 31-point victory over Weber State. The Buffaloes scored 52 points, displaying a lack of domination in the second half. Sanders attributed their struggles to missing the gas after building a lead and pointed out 13 penalties as unacceptable for a program with championship aspirations. He praised quarterback Julian Lewis, who threw for 366 yards and four touchdowns, but criticized the team's inability to capitalize on its offensive opportunities. Sanders was particularly frustrated by a holding penalty that negated Titus Bautista's 73-yard touchdown run. He emphasized that Colorado wanted to win a championship and not just a game, and expressed satisfaction with freshman Micah Welch's milestone 100-yard rushing performance, becoming the first Buff to achieve that feat since 2022. Sanders also highlighted cornerback Jason Stokes Jr.'s strong effort following an adjustment to move Boo Carter inside.",
