The Buffs raced out the gates and took a 27-14 lead into halftime. Deion Sanders' side continued the onslaught in the second half and sealed a 48-21 win to improve to 4-1 (2-0 Big 12).
The Colorado Buffaloes went to the Bounce House and were all over the top rushing offense in the country. The defense forced four turnovers (two interceptions, two fumble recoveries) and ensured the UCF Knights had no chance to come back.
Travis Hunter had a massive game. He registered one interception and caught nine passes for 89 yards and a TD. Hunter's display solidified his case for the Heisman Trophy.

The UCF Knights simply had no answer for the Buffaloes. The team went 6-of-18 on third-down attempts and coughed up the football four times as they were handed their first loss of the year to fall to 3-1 (1-1).
