Transcript

00:00 Colorado was on upset watch for a minute there,

00:02 but wound up getting the win.

00:04 Robin Lundberg, Claudette Montana here with you

00:06 on the fifth quarter.

00:06 And Claudette, afterwards, Chador Sanders made sure

00:10 that the student section at Arizona State

00:12 knew that the Buffs took the dub.

00:14 Is he getting a little too cocky?

00:16 - I mean, why are we surprised by this news?

00:19 This is what Chador Sanders does.

00:20 I think after every single win, he's flexed his watch,

00:23 which I believe also I saw is like $70,000.

00:25 So shout out to him for playing football

00:27 with a $70,000 watch.

00:29 But I don't think he's being too cocky.

00:31 He's entertaining and we're talking about it today.

00:33 And it's college football.

00:35 This is what it is.

00:37 What I think is hilarious is the fact that he went over

00:39 to the student section at Arizona State

00:41 after they beat a team that has only won one game

00:43 this season.

00:44 That's the worst team in the Pac-12 conference right now.

00:46 He was kind of acting like they upset

00:48 the Georgia Bulldogs or something.

00:49 But you know, his dad's Deion Sanders.

00:51 He's known for having extreme confidence.

00:53 You have to be a fool to think that some of those traits

00:56 aren't going to be trickled down to his sons.

00:59 - Yeah, look, I mean, I think this is overblown

01:02 to an extreme degree.

01:04 The origin of this celebration,

01:06 maybe I didn't love at first when it felt like

01:09 he was flaunting it, but now that it's sort of

01:12 just become his celebration, well, of course,

01:14 he's going over and having fun with the fans.

01:16 That's what we want.

01:17 We see that all the time, the interaction

01:20 between an athlete and the fans,

01:21 or if they're chanting overrated

01:23 and he shoves it in their face.

01:24 He won the game.

01:25 He has been excellent all season long.

01:28 I really don't understand why people are getting

01:31 so upset about this.

01:33 This looks like par for the course for college sports

01:36 and sports in general.

01:37 It's part of what we love.
