Alright, you won’t believe this wildness that went down ahead of Colorado’s game against Texas Tech. A full-on booklet, complete with the Buffaloes’ offensive plays and game plan, was reportedly found chilling at a hotel bar in Broomfield, Colorado, on Friday night. Yeah, you read that right: their actual playbook, just sitting there.
Rival Fans Scoop Up Sanders’ Secrets
According to The Athletic’s David Ubben, a group of Texas Tech fans stumbled upon this goldmine of proprietary info. The cover sheet itself was a dead giveaway, reading “‘Powered by the gogo,’” a direct nod to offensive coordinator Brennan Marion’s signature Go-Go offense. And inside? The fans who found it claimed it had Colorado’s opening script of plays for the game and way more. Naturally, this thing blew up on social media faster than you can say “fumble,” and it was immediately plastered all over a Texas Tech message board Friday night. Can you even imagine the frenzy?
The Trick Play That Actually Hit
Here’s where it gets even crazier. At least one of the plays diagrammed in that booklet, specifically an opener, was actually run in the game. We’re talking about a reverse pass trick play, which Colorado pulled out on its very first offensive snap! Talk about a bizarre twist of fate, right? The fans who discovered the booklet reportedly tried to get it into the hands of the Texas Tech staff, but head coach Joey McGuire told The Athletic he never saw it. Whether he did or not, that’s a whole different level of pre-game intel that almost landed in enemy hands.
This whole situation is wild, leaving you wondering what kind of chaos could have unfolded if that info had fully made its way to the opposing sideline. It’s a stark reminder that in the heat of a regular season, every detail matters, and sometimes, those details end up on a barstool.
