Colorado coach Deion Sanders might spin the quarterback carousel once more Saturday when the Buffaloes square off with Wyoming.

But Sanders isn't telling outsiders who Colorado will deploy following a 36-20 loss to Houston last week that dropped the team to 1-2 this season. Ryan Staub made his second consecutive start in that game, but the results left something to be desired.

'I don't think we're in a car just running aimlessly the wrong way,' Sanders said Tuesday. 'I don't feel that way. I feel like we could be better, and we are better. We just had a hiccup there and a hiccup there that has disarmed us in its totality. And it's no excuse for what transpired last week. No excuse for that.'

Shedeur Sanders was the team's starter last season before entering the NFL draft along with Heisman Trophy-winning receiver and cornerback Travis Hunter.

Kaidon Salter, a transfer from Liberty, started the season-opening loss to Georgia Tech.

After Salter opened the next game, Sanders rotated Colorado's top three quarterbacks for consecutive series in a 31-7 win against Delaware on Sept. 6.

Freshman Julian Lewis is also in the running to get more playing time.

'I think we have the young men,' Sanders said. 'I don't think, I know, we have the young men inside that locker room and the coaching staff to get it together.'
