Have an interesting take?

Even ESPN analyst Rece Davis, ahead of the Buffs showdown against Texas Tech, expressed his belief in Shedeur and Travis’s gameplay against their opponent and the kind of hold they have in the game, saying, “Maybe it’s just the confidence I have in Shedeur to handle this, Travis Hunter to make plays, and… although Texas Tech played well on defense in Ames on Saturday and held [Iowa State] to 22 points, I’m not betting against Shedeur Sanders against a defense that gives up a ton.”

Well, nothing is far from the truth. Shedeur Sanders currently holds an impressive track record of 73.3% completion rate, running for 2597 yards with 21 touchdowns. And the two-way star Travis Hunter also needs no introduction; currently, he is holding 60 receptions for 757 yards with eight yards in the offense.

Now you can understand why they can possibly be a threat to the Texas Tech team. Even though their defense might be strong, Buffs’ deadly combination is hard to tackle, plus the team has significantly improved their offense in the season. Now, let’s see who emerges as the ultimate winner in today’s game.
