At first, the story of Colorado cornerback Travis Hunter and Colorado State defensive back Henry Blackburn seemed to embody the worst college football has to offer.
Blackburn lacerated Hunter's liver with a late hit during the Rams’ nationally televised 43–35 double-overtime loss to the Buffaloes on Sept. 16. In response, some fans sent Blackburn death threats.
However, the two have seemingly made peace and appear to have struck up a friendship. A Colorado State spokesman told The Athletic Thursday afternoon that the two players went bowling Wednesday, adding that their game will be featured on Hunter’s YouTube channel in the near future.
