The defensive back pounded on a loose ball and ran it back to put the Buffaloes up 41-27 at Texas Tech.

And Sanders performed a celebration made famous by his Hall of Fame NFL dad Deion.

The 24-year-old high-stepped in the end zone late in Colorado’s victory.

And fans could be forgiven for thinking it was Deion himself under the helmet.

One said, “It looks exactly like Deion, awesome.”

Another wrote, “That’s Prime Time’s son!”

A third posted, “Love that he honors his pops! That #21 Dance is fire. Never gets old!”

Deion Sanders, 57, is one of the best to ever play the game and won two Super Bowls.

He played from 1989 to 2005 as a defensive back and wide receiver.

Deion now coaches the Colorado Buffaloes – who are on course for a place in the college football playoffs.

Colorado’s win Saturday improved their record to 7-2.

Sanders’ side are second in the Big 12 behind the BYU Cougars.

Deion has two sons on the team currently – quarterback Shedeur and cornerback Shilo.

The 57-year-old also has a daughter making waves in college sports.

Shelomi Sanders made her SWAC basketball debut for Alabama A&M against Oakwood and had a career-high in points.

She only needed 10 minutes to score 14 points, adding a rebound, assist, and two steals.

She shot 41.6 percent from the field, including 40 percent on three-pointers, on her way to a 96-50 win.

Coach Prime took notice of her great performance and sent along a gift for Shelomi to show off.

On her Instagram story, she was seen wearing eyewear from $90 million company Blenders Eyeware.

This company has an exclusive collection with Deion, and he was sure to send along something from the company for his daughter.

“Thank you for sending sum since I cannot raid your office anymore,” she wrote on the story.

Coach Prime also gave his daughter a shoutout on social media alongside his gift for her.

“Shelomi Sanders balled out in her debut with Alabama A&M,” he wrote.
