The last Rocky Mountain Showdown for five years between Colorado and Colorado State occurred last Saturday. Colorado shook off a lethargic first half and took advantage of two second half interceptions to surge to a 28-9 victory. Travis Hunter once again proved he is a unique player in college football, grabbing two touchdown catches and an interception. The interception was particularly athletic as he broke on the ball before the receiver and snatched it from his grasp. Colorado takes on Baylor this weekend at home.
