Shedeur Sanders, Colorado throttle UCF

Shedeur Sanders passed for three touchdowns and two-way star Travis Hunter had a touchdown reception and an interception as Colorado routed UCF 48-21 Saturday afternoon in Orlando, Fla. Lightning in the area delayed the start of the Big 12 matchup for about 50 minutes. The game started with the two teams exchanging interceptions on their first possessions before Sanders went to work. Sanders was 28-of-35 passing for 290 yards with an interception. Nine of his completions went to Hunter for 89 yards and four others went to Will Sheppard for 99. Sanders' 23-yard pass to Hunter gave the Buffaloes (4-1, 2-0 Big 12) their first score, and his 47-yard toss to Sheppard broke an early 7-7 tie and gave the visitors the lead for good.
