Shedeur Sanders, the senior quarterback of the Colorado Buffaloes, had a remarkable day on Friday as he not only won the prestigious Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award but also set a new record for Colorado's all-time single-season passing yards. Sanders needed 40 yards to surpass Koy Detmer's 28-year-old record of 3,527 yards and achieved this milestone by throwing a 10-yard touchdown pass to LaJohntay Wester in the first quarter.

This touchdown pass marked Sanders' 31st of the season, breaking his own school record set just a week ago against Kansas. Sanders continued his impressive performance by throwing another touchdown pass, this time an 11-yarder to Travis Hunter, helping the Buffaloes secure a 21-0 lead going into halftime.
