Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter continue to build their reputations ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft.

Sanders threw two touchdown passes to Hunter and ran for another in the first half of Saturday night’s home game against Cincinnati.

His effort gave the Buffaloes a 10-point lead at the half.

Shedeur and Travis are different, different right now man!

Sanders ended the Buffaloes’ first drive of the game with a short touchdown pass to Hunter, then ran for a touchdown of his own on Colorado’s next possession.

The Colorado quarterback entered halftime going 18-of-21 for 219 yards with three total touchdowns through two quarters.

Hunter caught a 34-yard touchdown pass from Sanders in the final seconds of the second quarter, his second touchdown pass of the night.

The wide receiver and cornerback made seven catches for 113 yards, while recording a solo tackle and two passes defensed on the other side of the ball.

The dominance of Colorado’s star duo on Saturday night led some fans to wonder whether Sanders and Hunter could move up to the No. 1 and No. 2 picks in the upcoming NFL draft.

The crowd at Folsom Field on Saturday night included five-star quarterback prospect Julian Lewis.

Lewis, who will be part of the Class of 2025, verbally committed to USC but officially visited Colorado for the first time last spring.

Colorado will hope tonight’s matchup between Sanders and Hunter is impressive enough to encourage Lewis to switch his commitment to Boulder for next season.
