The Colorado State vs. Colorado matchup in Boulder on Saturday night provided plenty of sparks along with a number of moments that left fans scratching their heads. The egregiously late-hit on Buffaloes star Travis Hunter at the hands of Rams defensive back Henry Blackburn certainly qualified as the latter.
After a pass from Shedeur Sanders had cleared Hunter and the initial Colorado State defender, Blackburn flew in and laid a hit on Hunter. The result of that was Hunter leaving the game and in turn, it appears he’ll miss extended time.
