Colorado’s stars led the Buffaloes to a win over North Dakota State to open the season on Thursday night.
The Buffaloes beat the FCS powerhouse Bison 31-26 as QB Shedeur Sanders threw for 445 yards while CB/WR Travis Hunter played nearly the entire game again and had seven catches for 132 yards and three touchdowns.
Hunter’s final two touchdowns of the game were the deciding scores. He caught a 13-yard TD from Sanders halfway through the third quarter to give the Buffs a 24-20 lead. And then he made an incredible catch midway through the fourth quarter to put Colorado up by two scores.
