The Colorado Buffaloes faced a gut-wrenching defeat against the Kansas State Wildcats on Saturday night in Boulder. As the clock ticked down, Colorado briefly took the lead when Shedeur Sanders connected with LaJohntay Wester.
However, Kansas State answered quickly, scoring less than a minute later to grab a 31-28 advantage. Despite the Buffaloes’ best efforts to drive down the field in the closing moments, they couldn’t break through. Fans were left questioning a critical no-call on Sanders’ fourth-down attempt. Adding to the tension, the game raised serious concerns for Colorado as they lost two-way standout Travis Hunter early on due to a shoulder injury.
Following the game, Deion Sanders spoke about the situation regarding Travis Hunter’s injury, but he admitted he didn’t have any solid updates available. According to Brian Howell on X, the Colorado head coach mentioned that he still needed to provide information on the injuries affecting Hunter, Jimmy Horn, and Omarion Miller.

In their recent loss to Kansas State, the Buffs faced a tough blow with three key players going down with injuries, but all eyes are on Travis Hunter’s status.
The dynamic two-way player made an impact with three catches for 26 yards before leaving the game due to an apparent shoulder injury after a hit in the second quarter. If Hunter is sidelined, it would significantly affect Colorado’s performance on both offense and defense. Looking ahead, the Buffs are set to take on Arizona in Week 8, and Hunter’s condition will undoubtedly be the focal point of discussion in the coming days as fans and analysts alike await updates on his recovery.
