What a start to the season — and new era — for Colorado football.

Deion Sanders got off to a roaring start with a 45-42 win over No. 17 TCU in Fort Worth and he had a lot to say to the media afterward.

The nation was full of hot takes after Colorado shocked TCU and here are my three hottest takes from the upset win that had everyone talking.

3. Travis Hunter is the most dynamic player in the nation

Watching Travis Hunter do something that no one in college football has done at a high level in years was really impressive. He took the field on defense and finished with three tackles, a pass breakup, and an interception.

On offense, all he did was catch a huge 3rd-and-16 pass and finish with 11 receptions for 119 yards on the day. He looked unguardable on offense and lockdown on defense.

While he doesn’t return kicks, he’s dynamic enough to do that.

It’s been a while since we’ve seen a player this dominant on both sides of the ball and play an entire game, but Hunter is special and he’s the nation’s most dynamic athlete.
