Deion Sanders’ son, Bucky, recently took a playful jab at the Colorado football team while playing the newly released College Football ’25 video game, expressing his dissatisfaction with the team’s roster.
Despite his family ties to the program, Bucky hinted that it might be time to switch to a new squad, remarking on social media, “I might have to start playing with a new team… I ain’t gone lie to you.”
Bucky isn’t the first person affiliated with the program to critique the Buffaloes. Earlier in the offseason, star player Travis Hunter made headlines by roasting his team’s offensive line during a friendly competition with teammate Shedeur Sanders. “Is the O-Line realistic? Yeah, they can’t block for nothing,” Hunter was heard saying while playing as Colorado in the game.
The talent level in College Football ’25 has been a point of contention, particularly concerning the Buffaloes. Despite coming off a 4-8 campaign last year, the game rated Colorado as having the top offense and the second-best defense in the Big 12, a ranking that has puzzled many users. These ratings haven’t prevented players from experiencing frustrations, as evidenced by the reactions of Sanders Jr. and Hunter.
Deion Sanders Jr., a former Division 1 football player who now manages Colorado’s social media accounts, faced immediate backlash for his comments. Followers were quick to respond with remarks like, “Chill bro,” and “Saying this about your father’s team that you praise is nasty work.” Many echoed concerns about the team’s offensive line, suggesting Hunter’s criticism was spot on.

The release of College Football ’25 was highly anticipated, and its debut did not disappoint. The game’s servers crashed on the first day due to the overwhelming number of players trying to log in, a testament to its popularity.
Despite the initial technical issues, the game has been a commercial success, with sales soaring on the first day and expected to continue rising.
Fans are thrilled to have a new edition of college football gaming after a decade-long hiatus. However, to fully enjoy the experience, players might want to avoid teams with frustrating rosters.
As Bucky Sanders humorously highlighted, even virtual football can test the patience of die-hard fans.
