A pair of questionable calls against Colorado’s Travis Hunter drew backlash from fans on Saturday after the two-way star missed out on a chance to add to another touchdown to his highlight reel.
The sequence occurred during Colorado’s final drive of the first half, when quarterback Ryan Staub—in his first start in place of an injured Shedeur Sanders—appeared to connect with Hunter for a touchdown.
After overturning the call, Staub would again appear to find Hunter, this time on a 29-yard bomb, for a score moments later. However, the celebration was interrupted after the officials to reverse the second would-be TD after ruling that the receiver didn’t maintain control of the ball. The debated decision resulted in CU settling for a 47-yard field goal to cut the deficit to 13–10 at halftime.
