Colorado coach Deion Sanders advised his players to celebrate responsibly after their 38-31 overtime victory on Saturday night.

In his post-game locker room speech, Sanders told his players they “won’t do anything stupid today.”

“Let’s not go out there and do anything crazy that might provoke the police to arrest you,” he said, noting that doing so would result in being kicked off the team (53:05).

The Buffs had plenty to celebrate as they opened Big 12 play in winning fashion, trailing by as many as 14 points in the first half and needing a 43-yard touchdown run by LaJohntay Wester as time expired to force overtime.

Micah Welch’s one-yard touchdown run gave Colorado the lead in overtime, but a fumble by Baylor’s Dominic Richardson on first down and goal doomed the Bears.

Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders threw for 341 yards and two touchdowns, while star two-way player Travis Hunter had seven receptions for 130 yards and three rushes.
