Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders Celebrates Win Against Arizona By Flexing His Watch
It comes as no surprise that Shedeur Sanders has been an integral component of the Colorado team since his arrival from Jackson State. Despite the fact that this is his first season with the Buffs, Shedeur has been the starting quarterback every week.

But he wasn’t exactly gracious in winning, performing his usual celebration in front of the Arizona State Sun Devils supporters.
In a Week 6 game on Saturday night, he helped the Buffaloes earn their fourth win of the season, improving their record to 4-2, with a 24-27 triumph in Arizona.

Shedeur Sanders, the Buffaloes’ quarterback, completed 26 of 42 throws for 239 yards and a score, following a week in which he was chastised for his performances against Oregon and USC.
A video of Coach Prime’s quarterback son sprinting his way to the Arizona State student section after winning at their home stadium, Mountain America Stadium, is going viral on social media. Shedeur then continues to show off his pricey watch to the Arizona State supporters while grinning broadly.

Shedeur Sanders basically exposes his $70,000 diamond-studded watch to his opponents as a message or to celebrate Colorado’s victory in that game. And he did it again when the Buffs defeated the Arizona State Sun Devils 24-27 in a nail-biting Week 6 contest.
The Colorado quarterback’s antics have sparked outrage among supporters. Some think it’s a selfish way to celebrate a win, while others point out that Colorado failed to win against quality teams like Oregon and USC and barely got through a 1-5 Arizona State.

While some may object to the taunting and theatrics, Sanders’ potential is undeniable, and many believe he will play in the NFL in the near future.
Some believe he will be a legitimate first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, which is pretty high praise.
