There Was Another Major College Football Upset on Saturday Night

There have already been a few college football upsets in Week 5, but none bigger than the Kentucky Wildcats stealing a game on the road over the No. 6 Ole Miss Rebels. The Rebels went into the game as a 15.5-point favorite (ESPN Bet).

However, there was another big upset that many may not have considered to be one.

The Colorado Buffaloes went into Orlando, Florida, to face the UCF Knights as a 12.5-point underdog and came out with a 48-21 win.

Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders and wide receiver/defensive back Travis Hunter stole the show once again. Sanders finished with 28 completions on 35 attempts for 290 yards, three touchdowns and an interception.

Hunter continued his potential Heisman campaign with nine catches for 89 yards and a touchdown. He also added an interception on defense, which he celebrated with the Heisman pose.

UCF quarterback KJ Jefferson, who spent five years with the Arkansas Razorbacks prior to this season, threw for 284 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. He also tallied 76 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown.

Even though Colorado was outgained by the Knights on offense, 461-418, the Buffaloes were able to secure the victory by forcing four turnovers compared to their one. The turnovers by UCF led to 14 points for coach Deion Sanders, including a fumble that was returned 95 yards for a score with five minutes remaining in the game.

Colorado now sits at 3-1 on the season and 2-0 in the Big 12. Coach Prime and company will head back to Boulder for their bye week before facing the Kansas State Wildcats in Week 7.

UCF suffered their first loss of the season on Saturday, moving to 3-1 on the year. They will hit the road in Week 6 to face an in-state foe in the Florida Gators.
