No. 20 Colorado goes with non-traditional uniforms against Texas Tech

The Colorado Buffaloes will bring a non-traditional yet eye-catching look to their Big 12 matchup against Texas Tech in Lubbock. Deviating from their usual combinations, the Buffs opt for a sleek, monochrome style with black helmets, crisp white jerseys and black pants.

The bold color contrast emphasizes their shared presence on the field and adds to the intimidation factor against the Red Raiders. To enhance the look, a majority of players will wear Deion Sanders’ signature white Nike Air Max DT ’96 shoes, detailed with black flames, connecting Sanders’ iconic style with the team’s revamped identity.

Colorado enters the game with a 6-2 overall record and a 4-1 mark in the Big 12. Colorado is playing not just for style points, but for serious conference implications. As they climb the rankings and gain momentum in the race for the Big 12 title, each game will be a crucial stepping stone. This was evident during Tuesday’s practice, where the team’s sharp focus and discipline caught the attention of Sanders, who called the Buffs a “Playoff team.” In a moment that began when the team expected corrections, Sanders instead gathered them to deliver compliments. His words of encouragement highlighted their growth and collective commitment – ​​a gesture that boosted the Buffaloes’ confidence as they moved deeper into the season.
