The Colorado Buffaloes continue to attract attention from celebrities despite much of the luster from the program fizzling out.
Hall of Fame wide receivers Michael Irvin and Terrell Owens were among the people in attendance for Colorado’s game against the Houston Cougars in Houston on Friday night. Owens even recorded a hype video for Colorado to help pump up their fans.

Both Owens and Irvin were wearing black shirts, which matches Colorado’s primary color, indicating their allegiance.

T.O. was even seen working with Colorado’s receivers before the game and giving them some help.
Irvin and Colorado head coach Deion Sanders were teammates on the Cowboys from 1995-1999 and won a Super Bowl together. While Sanders and Owens were never teammates in the NFL, they both had stints with Dallas and San Francisco, and they are friends. It’s nice for both men to still support Sanders despite him going through a rougher patch as Colorado’s coach.
This is Sanders’ third year as Colorado’s head coach. They are coming off a 9-4 season that was led by Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter, who have both since been drafted into the NFL.
