Travis Hunter, the Colorado Buffs, and the news headlines go hand in hand. When Deion Sanders announced a bye week, fans said what would be left in the college football news if they were absent. There is no other say in it, good or bad. They just know how to stay in the limelight. Deion Sanders’ star boy Travis Hunter is the one player who has been the topic of debate among critics and fans. While some are calling him a fantastic dual-threat player, some can’t agree on it. Meanwhile, let’s learn what analysts Andy and Ari have to say about him.

As we know, the Buffs are ready to roll against Kansas State in their upcoming game. Now the On3 analysts Andy and Ari are saying that Hunter is going to be a problem for Kansas State. “Travis Hunter is the best football player in America, and that’s no knock on Ashton Jeanty from Boise State.” Andy explained that Hunter is so talented that “those of us under 70 years old have never seen before,” because he is equally capable of playing both the positions of a receiver and a cornerback. Andy further discussed that Hunter is “the best receiver and the best corner most of the games that he’s playing,” which makes him a true dual threat in any conference.

That’s something Kansas State must be prepared for. Ari even predicted that there are higher chances for the buffs to take away the win. Highlighting the notion that gives Colorado the edge, Andy said, “He is the engine that runs this Colorado team,” explaining the buffs’ offense mainly leans on Hunter for his explosive plays. Hunter has recorded 6 touchdowns and 46 long receptions in the five games he has played this season.

The analysts further pointed out that Hunter has exceeded 100 yards in the four games. This kind of performance from Hunter is going to be challenging for Kansas State to control. “If Travis Hunter is more than 97 and a half, there’s also a good chance he’s got an interception on the other side of the ball,” Ari said that the sum of his offensive firepower and defensive prowess makes him dangerous; that’s why the analysts are quite sure about Colorado pulling out the win.

What did Coach Prime say to Travis Hunter?

So the Buffs are holding second place in the Big 12. Only a man who has given so much to this program can understand its worth. Deion Sanders is not in the mood to let anything happen to that ranking. He told Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter how to play up to the mark of that standard during the October 9 pregame press conference.

After winning three major games this season, a win over Kansas State seems imaginable. “You learn a lot from successes. You don’t just learn from when you’re getting your bu– kicked,” said Deion Sanders, referring to his boys. After consistently noticing Shedeur and Hunter’s performance, it can be said that they have improved a lot.

What’s your perspective on:

Is Travis Hunter the best dual-threat player we've seen in decades, or just overhyped?

Have an interesting take?

Amid Hunter’s high odds of grabbing the Heisman this year, a win over Kansas is going to be crucial for him. Now that Coach Prime is thinking of including his boy Shilo Sanders for the Wildcats game, the Colorado defense becomes even stronger. If Travis Hunter, along with his mates, does what they have been doing for the past three games they won, they can easily pull the same magic in the game against Kansas State.
