The 92nd Rocky Mountain Showdown got off to a rocky start at Folsom Field on Saturday night, as with 90 minutes to go until kickoff, tempers flared at midfield between players and staff from the CU…
At approximately 6:35 p.m., a verbal altercation at roughly the 50-yard line accelerated to the point that players from both teams rushed to join in. Order was restored within minutes, but Buffs quarterback Shedeur Sanders could be seen yelling as both sides were separated.
CU Buffs and CSU Rams athletic officials declined to comment on the scrum, or about any possible cause. One witness said the younger Sanders was seen conducting warm-ups and alleged that some passes appeared to be very close to some CSU players who were also prepping for the tilt. The CSU players reportedly took offense, and things escalated from there.
