Colorado's two-way star Travis Hunter left the Buffaloes' game against No. 18 Kansas State late in the second quarter due to a right shoulder injury sustained on a 14-yard reception. The game saw a total of four Buffaloes receivers getting injured, including speedster Jimmy Horn Jr. (ankle), Omarion Miller (ankle), and Terrell Timmons Jr. (unspecified).
Coach Deion Sanders provided limited updates after the game, mentioning that Miller was in a walking boot and emphasizing the importance of prioritizing the players' health over the game. The absence of these key players had a significant impact on the team's performance in the closely contested match.
