Can Deion Sanders rally the Buffs to victory with Hunter and Horn back in action?

“But what do they do without Hunter and Horn?”. A question that raged in the minds of every Buffs fan out there after Jimmy Horn Jr. and Travis Hunter were both out of the Wildcats showdown in the first half itself. Coming off of that 3-win streak, no one had thought that Deion Sanders was going to find himself in such a predicament. Being the second lead WR on the roster, Jimmy Horn Jr. has to come back.

And he will cause, in Horn’s own words, “No money in this world can make me switch up on my dawgs.” Deion Sanders made it clear during the post-conference that Jimmy Horn Jr. is coming back. WR Coach Jason Phillips also had some positive words regarding Horn’s overall growth and recovery. “[Jimmy Horn] practiced today, so he feels really good,” Phillips had mentioned during a post-practice interview.

Horn has been nothing but explosive every time he has stepped on that turf. In the 5 games he has played, this guy has already managed to cover 347 yards and collected 1 touchdown under his belt.

The most memorable play the dude managed to execute was during the NDSU showdown. It was the Buffs opener, and someone had to crack it big, and it was Jimmy Horn Jr. The offensive line gave Shedeur Sanders enough time amidst the blitz and he locked in the pass.

Horn gets it and converts it into a 62-yard touchdown. No wonder he is one of the fastest guys on Colorado’s offense. However, he ain’t the only one who is going to help Deion Sanders win his pride back against Arizona this weekend.

Coach Prime can bring this one home

Travis Hunter is back for blood. With him almost recovered from his shoulder injury, Hunter is coming for everyone. He made it quite clear on the Outta Pocket podcast that he is going to quit being humble and show people what he is actually capable of.

What’s your perspective on:

Can Deion Sanders rally the Buffs to victory with Hunter and Horn back in action?

Have an interesting take?

If you ask us? We definitely do not doubt this guy. After the plays, he has managed to pull against the Rams, Baylor, or a run-heavy team like UCF. Hunter can literally do anything on the turf as long as he has the room.

Another dude who can help Deion bring this one home is his son; Shedeur Sanders. Shedeur had no one against Kansas State. Both Hunter and Horn were out and the big question was if Shedeur could even do anything. He did. Collection over 380 yards and bringing in 3 touchdowns, Shedeur almost helped the Buffs win the game.

If Deion’s D-line had performed the same way they had against the Knights, then Joyce Brown‘s 50-yard touchdown wouldn’t be a success and the Buffs would’ve won with 28 points on the board. However, let sleeping dogs lie. We cannot wait to see what Coach Prime does against Arizona cause he is getting back his best soldiers on the turf.
