Social media reacts to Colorado State players' bold comments on Colorado
Once again, we have some drama heading into Saturday's Rocky Mountain Showdown between the Colorado Buffaloes and Colorado State Rams.
Speaking with Romi Bean of CBS Colorado, Colorado State football starting quarterback Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi and wide receiver Tory Horton shared some intriguing comments on last year's game and how they view head coach Deion Sanders' Buffs.
"We should have murdered them guys," Horton told Bean of CSU's double-overtime loss in Boulder last season. "They (CU) came out with that attitude as they were on top of the world. This ain't no Cinderella story."
Fowler-Nicolosi later added, "We'll see how far Instagram followers gets them."
Here's how social media reacted to Horton and Fowler-Nicolosi's bold comments:

Should Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi be talking?
What if I told you the person speaking in this video is flexing about a game in which he threw three picks and lost?

Revenge on their minds
Before the season started, I asked Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi and Tory Horton their thoughts on last year's Rocky Mountain Showdown.
The Rams didn't mince words. Revenge is on their mind this weekend. https://t.co/vvgdeZJ1pQ— Richie Cozzolino (@RichieCozz) September 12, 2024
