Rock Solid Support: Dwayne Johnson Backs Deion Sanders Through Colorado's Rocky Start

The Colorado Buffaloes suffered a defeat in their Big 12 opener against Houston on Saturday evening, falling 36-20 and continuing their disappointing start to the 2025 season. The absence of key players is clearly hindering Deion Sanders' squad, which has now dropped two of its last three matches. Initially, the contest between the Buffs and Cougars showcased competitive play. Colorado executed a pair of scoring drives late in the second quarter, narrowing the gap to a mere 16-14 at halftime. However, the Cougars reasserted their dominance in the second half, outscoring Colorado 20-6 while controlling the ball for an impressive 13 additional minutes. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, a prominent supporter of Sanders, remains steadfast in his admiration despite the setback. He expressed pride in Coach Prime and his team's efforts, noting, “He’s creating his own blueprint.” Johnson emphasized Sanders' significant impact on both the program and the community, underlining a transformative moment in college football.
