He specifically noted the pervasive smell of weed during the second quarter of games, a tradition he had not anticipated. Sanders, who is entering his third year coaching Colorado and recently signed a $54 million contract extension, made the remarks amid discussions about the unique atmosphere at Colorado football games. This comes shortly after Sanders publicly battled cancer during the offseason. The coach's comments highlight an unconventional aspect of the student section culture at Colorado home games.
