Colorado's Travis Hunter is one of the most popular athletes in college football and one of the most discussed figures in all of sports. When you're a rare breed of dual-position athlete in the most popular sport in America on one of the most discussed brands in college football and are a projected top-five pick in the NFL draft, your name tends to get around.
Popular Twitch Streamer Agent00, who has over three million followers through his Twitch and Instagram accounts, was invited to the Colorado Buffaloes' Week 9 home game against the Cincinnati Bearcats. He went on his stream to share the news, including getting an all-access on-field pass that would allow him to be right next to Hunter and the rest of the players.
Agent00, real name Din Muktar, is a Canadian streamer who is part of the YouTube group AMP. He is largely known for his gameplay of the NBA 2K video game series and is viewed as one of the top creators in the space.
Many celebrities and public figures who have no direct ties to the Buffaloes have made appearances at games in some capacity. These include rapper Lil Wayne, ex-WWE Superstar Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, former NFL tight end Rob Gronkowski, former NBA All-Stars Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett, and music artist DJ Khalid.
Travis Hunter's Colorado is running away with the conference
If Travis Hunter and Colorado can beat Cincinnati to advance to 6-2 on the year, not only will it put them at the forefront of the conversation to win the Big 12, but it will dismantle a lot of the "media hype" accusations from the past year.
Colorado is favored by 5.5 points, so a blowout here would set them in the right direction. But this is one of the very few spots where they have been favored, so a loss against an unranked team in the Bearcats would essentially eliminate them from any sort of playoff contention.
