CU Buffs Score Big! 🏈✨

Hey Boulder fans, what a game! CU Buffs took to Folsom Field this past weekend, and Coach Prime’s team didn’t disappoint, claiming a crucial win that keeps them in the Big 12 race. This victory means the Buffs are just a step away from bowl eligibility—stay tuned as they battle for a spot in the Big 12 title game!

Here’s what went down: Quarterback Shedeur Sanders showed off his skill, throwing for over 2,200 yards this season with an impressive 19 touchdowns, and two-way star Travis Hunter brought the heat, leading with six touchdowns of his own. Buffs fans were treated to amazing plays by Jimmy Horn Jr., LaJohntay Wester, and Isaiah Augustave, each adding fuel to CU’s offensive fire.

Defensively, the Buffs were unstoppable! Cam'Ron Silmon-Craig and Nikhai Hill-Green held the line with 53 tackles each, backed by key interceptions from Travis Hunter and Colton Hood. With all eyes on their matchup against Cincinnati’s star running back Corey Kiner, CU’s front seven shut down the Bearcats, forcing crucial third-and-long plays that kept fans on the edge of their seats!

Next Up: The Buffs take a breather next weekend and will return to action on Nov. 9, ready to take on Texas Tech and continue their race to the Big 12 title!

Congrats to the Buffs for a fantastic win, and as always, Go Buffs! 🦬💛

4. Get Creative with Your Candy Bowl 🍬
   For a twist on traditional treats, create a “mystery bowl” filled with candy or small toys and cover it with a cloth. Kids can reach in without seeing, adding a little spooky fun to trick-or-treating!

5. Download a Halloween Playlist 🎶
