Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter were incredible in Colorado's upset win over TCU. FOX Sports' Joel Klatt explains why the duo was so impressive.
"That was as good of a performance from a quarterback wearing that uniform as I’ve ever seen," Klatt said of Sanders, who completed 38 of 47 passes for 510 yards and four touchdowns in the victory.
. There were questions about how the QB would handle going from the FCS level to a Power 5 program, but he answered all of them."He’s been a winner everywhere he’s been," Klatt said of Shedeur."He’s been efficient, he’s been accurate, and he put on a show on Saturday.In addition to the jaw-dropping numbers Sanders posted in his first start in a Buffs’ uniform, there were three areas that impressed Klatt the most: Operation, preparation, and performance.
Sanders played under control and with poise throughout the game, showing the signs of a leader — Coach Prime honored his QB by having him wearKlatt was also impressed by Shedeur Sanders' intelligence and preparation. That was evident by Sanders’ impressive 81% completion percentage, which hasn’t been done by a Colorado QB since 2018, when Steven Montez completed 22 of 26 passes in a 38-16 victory over"Quarterback play, when it’s all said and done, it’s really about timing and ball placement," Klatt said."Is the ball on target and on time? And let me tell you, it was. He never held onto it too long. It was to the right spot, and it was generally accurately thrown.
