The Colorado Buffaloes spring game was not lacking in star power.
Boxer Ryan Garcia was in attendance for the game and even visited head coach Deion Sanders in his office following the game with a full Buffaloes uniform on.

Sanders expressed amusement at Garcia's outfit and even partially shadow boxed with the fighter. Sanders then expressed how proud he was of how Garcia has been performing in the ring.
Sanders notably invited Garcia to the game following the fighter's victory over Devin Haney April 20. He improved his overall record to 25-1 with 20 knockouts and could see a title fight in the near future.
Garcia accepted the invite soon after the fight and followed through on his plan to attend the game Saturday. The Buffaloes offense won the game 29-24.
Colorado went 4-8 in 2023 after a 3-1 start to the season. While this was an improvement over the team's 1-11 record in 2022, it was still a disappointment given the hot start.
Sanders promised the crowd that the Buffaloes would reach a bowl game in 2024, which is the programs first in the Big-12 conference since 2010.
