Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter continue to improve their reputations heading into the 2025 NFL Draft.

Sanders threw two touchdown passes to Hunter and rushed for another touchdown in the first half of Saturday night's home game against Cincinnati.

His attempt gave the Buffaloes a 10-point lead at halftime.

Shedeur and Travis are different, different, man right now!

Skip Bayless @RealSkipBayless

Shedeur to Travis, touchdown, 24-14 Buffs at halftime. These two ARE SO GOOD. I'll say it AGAIN: 1-2 or 2-1 in the NFL Draft.

Sanders ended the Buffaloes' first drive with a short touchdown pass to Hunter and then ran for a touchdown of his own on Colorado's next possession.

The Colorado quarterback entered halftime having gone 18 of 21 for 219 yards and three total touchdowns through two quarters.

WOW!
You give Shedeur time ANYTIME and he will make you pay.

Romi Bean @Romi_Bean

Shedeur Sanders started the game with 15 consecutive completions.
2 passing TDs and 1 rushing TD in the first half.
Why isn't he a bigger part of the Heisman conversation?

Caleb Mauldin @cwmauldin00

I know Travis Hunter is the Colorado player everyone thinks about…
But it's time to think about Shedeur Sanders. He is the best quarterback in the country and the main reason his team is so successful. He took this team to a completely different level

Hunter caught a 34-yard touchdown pass from Sanders in the final seconds of the second quarter, his second of the night.

The wide receiver and cornerback entered the break with seven catches for 113 yards while recording a solo tackle and two passes defensed on the other side of the ball.

Kyron Samuels @Cyrus Samuels

Travis Hunter has 7 catches for 113 yards and two touchdowns.
it's halftime.

Pat Forde @ByPatForde

Travis Hunter has 113 receiving yards and two touchdowns…in the first half…while also breaking up two passes on defense. Ridiculous.

The Colorado star duo's dominance on Saturday night led some fans to question whether Sanders and Hunter could get the No. 1 and No. 2 picks in the upcoming NFL Draft.

Shadrick Bell @Shadrick_Bell

I'm sorry, but Travis Hunter & Shedeur are so cold that a franchise can empty the draft tank and try to draft them both in a row to keep them on the same team

Shedeur easily surpasses the 15 QBs once the draft is over

Five-star quarterback prospect Julian Lewis was among the crowd at Folsom Field on Saturday night.

Lewis, who will be part of the 2025 class, verbally committed to USC but officially visited Colorado for the first time last spring.

Colorado hopes Sanders and Hunter's performance tonight is impressive enough to encourage Lewis to decommit to Boulder next season.
