Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter had been separating themselves from the pack recently, but now it might not be a contest.
Sanders' odds of becoming the first pick in the 2025 NFL Draft have grown recently, while Hunter has become more likely to win the Heisman Trophy.
The Colorado stars, who could be the top two selections in April, may have those in the bag after dominating in what's likely to be their final game in Boulder.

Sanders, the son of head coach Deion Sanders, completed 34 of his 41 passes for 438 yards and five touchdowns — Hunter caught three of those — as the Buffaloes dominated Oklahoma State, 52-0.
Hunter said recently he is "for sure" entering the NFL Draft, but Deion has said both will play in whatever bowl game they make, assuming the Buffaloes fall short of the College Football Playoff. That'd be a rarity in today's college game with top picks, but Coach Prime has a different mindset.
Scouts think Hunter is more likely to be a cornerback in the NFL, but he has not shied away from wanting to play both sides, and who can blame him?
