"Come on, bro. I have confidence in my team, bro," Sanders said. "No, I was just trolling. I was just trolling that. You see it went viral that I said it to Cam. I was just trolling him, bro. That was it because that's what he'd be doing all the time. I'm just happy to see us both successful, bro. That's all that makes me happy."
Colorado finished 9-3 overall and 7-2 in the Big 12. Sanders passed for 3,926 yards with 35 touchdowns against eight interceptions. They suffered an upset loss against Kansas which turned pivotal as they couldn't qualify for the conference championship game.

They ended the regular season ranking 12th before the championship games. Ward had 4,123 passing yards, 36 touchdowns along with seven interceptions.
"We don't really care like that": Shedeur Sanders drops selfless comments about not being a Heisman finalist
On "The Travis Hunter Show," Colorado Buffaloes two-way star was surprised about Shedeur Sanders not being a part of the Heisman finalists despite winning the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm award. Sanders hearing Hunter's views said:
"I mean, I'm not really tripping on it, bro.Honestly, I don't need others' validation to know who I am, so I don't really care. As long as they give at least one of us the respect we deserve, that's all that matters to me."
"If Trav receive an award, it's because of the team. We're not selfish people, you know what I mean? To where we just care about our own accolades and stuff like that. We don't really care like that.We just like having fun, playing a game, and just real relationships. So that's what I'm saying. When Trav wins the Heisman, I feel like I won the Heisman because we are a part of something," Shedeur added
Sanders and Hunter will likely feature in Alamo Bowl against the BYU Cougars on Dec. 28.
