Deion Sanders squashed any lingering potential for drama between Colorado and Arizona State at his news conference on Tuesday.

At the end of last Saturday’s game between the Buffs and Sun Devils, ASU running back Cam Skattebo was seen from the sideline back onto the field to hit Colorado’s Jordan Domineck. On the play in question, Domineck appears to pick up the football off the ground and start to run with it. Several other ASU players on the field react, but Skattebo comes in to deliver a blindside shot that knocks Domineck to the ground.

Arizona State was trying to come up with a last-second miracle touchdown in a game it eventually lost 27-24.

Domineck doesn’t react, but several of his teammates approach Skattebo before ASU’s sideline gets involved.

Some fans on social media thought the hit was another attempt by an opposing player to deliver a cheap shot on a Colorado player. Others argued that multiple players on the field all appeared to be reacting as if the play was still live.

Sanders was asked about the interaction on Tuesday.

The question that was posed to Sanders: “Last week, on Saturday, at the conclusion of the game, Arizona State running back (Cam) Skattebo walked off the field of play, an assistant coach said something to him, and then he immediately turns and runs back into the field of play. Is there a concern that these cheap shots are gonna start getting out of hand?”

Sanders disagreed with the framing of the question.

“I don’t know if your analysis of that is correct,” Sanders said. “I can’t say the assistant coach told him to go back and do something crazy. I’m not gonna go that far. All I know is Coach (Kenny) Dillingham and I spoke as early as Sunday and we good. We’re good. Moot point. We’re good.”

Colorado has been no stranger to controversy this season. Sanders has seen others take plenty of shots at him. Star two-way player Travis Hunter was sent to the hospital after a nasty hit in the Colorado State game.

Things were a bit chippy Saturday between the Sun Devils and Buffs as well. CU quarterback Shedeur Sanders took an ASU player’s mouthpiece and tossed it into the stands after a touchdown, then he made waves for flashing his watch to the ASU student section after the game ended.

For what it’s worth, both head coaches were highly complimentary of one another throughout the week leading up to their game. Sanders even went so far as to say he nearly hired Dillingham to coach on his staff at one point earlier in his career.
