Arizona’s Taylor Upshaw, a short-lived Buff, calls Shedeur Sanders ‘little boy’ on Instagram
It’s once again personal for Colorado.
Ahead of Saturday’s matchup against Arizona, Wildcats edge rusher Taylor Upshaw posted a clip on his Instagram story of Mike Tyson talking smack with the caption, “Get Your Mind Right little boy @shedeursanders.”
Upshaw was at Colorado for about three months this spring before re-entering the transfer portal in late April. The former Michigan Wolverine then committed to Arizona on May 4.
So far this season, Upshaw leads the Wildcats in both TFLs (8.5) and sacks (7.5). He also owns five QB hits and a forced fumble.
Check out Upshaw’s Instagram story below followed by some reactions from social media:
Looks like it’s still personal for Taylor Upshaw. He posted this on his Instagram story earlier today 👀 https://t.co/rJfNyADKqI pic.twitter.com/txyPHcrocm

@KirkMucker who’s Taylor Upshaw and why is he pissed at Sheduer?

Jedd Fisch on the message to former Colorado players Taylor Upshaw and Montana Lemonious-Craig ahead of Saturday's matchup in Boulder:
"We talk about it, we try to not make it personal, not make it emotional. Just play football."

Can’t wait to see #2 give Taylor Upshaw one of these pic.twitter.com/YJUUKfzzvN

I'd imagine Jedd Fisch is extremely frustrated over Taylor Upshaw's Instagram post tagging #CUBuffs' QB1 on a Mike Tyson clip and referring to him as a "little boy."
It sucks it didn't work out for Upshaw in Boulder, but now it's personal again for the #Buffs.
Not a good look.
