Stab, a redsirt sophomore, step later Cadon salter And Julian Lewis Played against Blue Hans, and he gave the most opportunity. He completed seven out of 10 passes for 157 yards and two touchdowns, causing his case to be Buffalo’s starter.
Sanders said that he prayed about his quarterback room after losing Georgia Tech 27-20 to the season opener and decided that the best move is giving two series to Salter, Lewis and Stob and “tell your performance” and decide who wants to play.
But when Stob passed the touchdown on each of his two drives, he stopped in two more and helped to turn the 10–7 game into 31-7 routes. Later, Sanders presented Staub with a game ball.
“He is just waiting for his opportunity,” said Sanders. “Never jumped into the portal, he had every right to think in this way. But he is just a great person and a great young man, like a leader among that room. He needed everyone, and I felt that it was time.”
Sanders were not ready to say who would start in Houston’s Big 12 opener next week, but she got the clarity on Saturday she wanted.
“I know how I am going to handle the status of quarterbacks,” he said. “I am not going to say this, but yes, I am not losing to the direction.”
Staub made a start for Colorado in 2023, during the first season of Sanders, an injured Sheder Sanders replaced Sanders and threw it at a distance of 195 yards and at the end of a regular-season, Utah scored a score of 23–17. He played a total of 20 snacks in four shows in the last season, but was entitled to a more experience running the system of Patt Shurmur, an aggressive coordinator compared to two newcomers QB of Colorado.

He opened the second half for receiver with 71-yard touchdown throw Honest brown And stopped as buffalo cubi for the rest of the third quarter.
“To be honest, this whole week, I was not really expecting to play,” Stob said. “Friday, I got a little call and okay, I can play. I was just waiting on one occasion. It didn’t know that it would be a two -minute drill, and the rest is like history.”
A transfer from Liberty, Salter made his second debut with Buffalo and led the team a 10–0 lead, before Sanders gave Lewis to Lewis, overall recruitment of number 12 in 2025 ESPN300, a chance to play their two drives in the second quarter. After ending both drive punts and delaware cut the deficit 10–7, the Stob took over.
Salter later resumed the game in the fourth quarter for two drives, which ended in both paints, and ended with a total of 127 yards offense. Lewis went to the final drive of Colorado to form a victory.
After not playing in the opener, Sanders planned to give more Snaps against Delaware to Lewis. Lewis threw 2–4 at a distance of 8 yards and took a sack against blue chickens. Sanders said that Lewis’s youth showed in their performance and are trying to be careful that Lewis is being kept quickly in his college career.
“Some people want you to throw them there, and I am very protective,” Sanders said. “I love the child and I want the child to succeed, so we are very protective on him and what we can do to him, how we say things with him. We want him to be in a situation.”
Staub said he never considered going out of Colorado during his two years when Shedur supported Sanders or when the buffalo was brought to Lewis and salutes this offsen. He said that he fell in love with this process and program and preferred to keep his head down and continued to work until he got a chance.
“It’s like crazy,” Staub said. “I mean, yes, a lot of work and some self-doubt are many days and, you know, my own fight.
