Poor day for Deion Sanders’ Buffs and two-way star Travis Hunter
It was a rough day for Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes as they lost to Kansas State. The Buffs struggled to pull off another miracle, especially with injuries piling up.
Star player Travis Hunter, who had been a game-changer on both sides of the ball, left in the second quarter with a shoulder injury.
His absence was felt immediately, as Kansas State kept the ball, scoring on their first three drives after Hunter left. Injuries also sidelined key players like Jimmy Horn Jr. and Omarion Miller, making the climb even steeper for Coach Prime’s squad.
Even though Shedeur Sanders put up impressive stats, completing 34 of 40 passes for 388 yards and three touchdowns, they weren't enough. The Buffs took the lead briefly in the fourth quarter but surrendered it with over two minutes remaining.
The highlight for Kansas State remained a big play from quarterback Avery Johnson and wide receiver Jayce Brown. With a 4-2 record and more questions than answers, the Buffs now look ahead to their road game against Arizona in week 8.
