“Bruh just give Travis the trophy”: LSU star Flau'jae Johnson drops bold praise on Colorado’s two-way star

LSU star guard Flau'jae Johnson has made her pick for this year's Heisman Trophy winner — Colorado Buffaloes wide receiver Travis Hunter. Hunter had another solid performance in Colorado's win over the Utah Utes on Saturday.

He recorded 55 yards from five catches and scored a touchdown.

The highlight of the game was when he struck the Heisman Trophy pose after intercepting a tipped pass from Utah's Isaac Wilson in the first quarter, electrifying the crowd at Folsom Field.

"Bruh just give Travis the trophy," Johnson posted on Saturday, via X.

In 10 games, Travis Hunter has racked up 911 receiving yards, with 10 TDs and made three interceptions.

It's not often that a non-quarterback wins the Heisman, but Hunter has made a strong case. He is the frontrunner to win it in December, with FanDuel also listing him as the favorite with -140 odds.

The Heisman Memorial Trophy is considered the most coveted award in college football, presented annually to the best player.

Johnson, who became the 37th female player in LSU history to reach 1,000 career points on Tuesday, is a vital piece for the Tigers this season.

"I'm the type of player, I just try to take the best shots and if I don't have good shots, I just try to pass it," Johnson said on Friday's postgame presser (2:31). "That just helps get everybody involved.

"I really like when I have five assists — I feel like that's just super cool. The coach said, 'Come out, hit the leg whip.' I hit the leg whip, and then it kind of just became contagious. Everybody was hitting the post, and we were getting the ball out. That's what we need — we just need ball movement."

Flau'jae Johnson dropped 25 points in the season opener versus Eastern Kentucky, followed by 24 points against Northwestern State on Nov. 8. LSU will face the Troy Trojans on Monday night, aiming to go 5-0 on the season.
