Colorado's Travis Hunter is a two-way sensation, playing both offense and defense for the Buffs. As a freshman, he caught 45 passes and made 11 tackles on defense. This season, he has continued to impress, earning Big 12 offensive and defensive player of the week honors. Hunter's ability to play both ways has drawn comparisons to NFL great Deion Sanders, who also played both offense and defense in college.
Hunter's stats are impressive: 63 receptions for 732 yards and 6 touchdowns on offense, as well as 27 tackles and an interception on defense. He has also been praised for his intelligence, work ethic, and ability to stay focused despite the physical demands of playing both ways.
Colorado is currently 7-2 and in contention for a Big 12 championship, with many fans believing they can win out and go 10-2. The team's turnaround under coach Deion Sanders has been remarkable, going from a 4-8 record last year to a potential playoff contender this season.
Hunter's story is one of determination and hard work, as he has overcome injuries and setbacks to become one of the most dominant players in college football.
