Deion Sanders' views on Shedeur's big debut

Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter, transfers from JSU, became Sanders' wingmen in the massive victory. Shedeur completed 38 of 47 passes for 510 yards, creating a record for most passing yards by a player in his FBS debut in the last 25 years.

Deion showed appreciation for Shedeur:

"We had some guys that singled themselves out with their playing and their playing ability," Deion Sanders said, "A lot of guys you doubted -- one of them from an HBCU -- I think he had 510 yards passing in a Power 5 football game. And he happens to be my son, and I'm proud of him, tremendously."

Sanders also praised Travis Hunter calling him his "other son." Shedeur thanked his parents after his performance for their constant support.
