Colorado two-way standout Travis Hunter was named the Associated Press 2025 college football player of the year on Thursday.
The wide receiver/cornerback received 26 of 43 votes from a panel of AP Top 25 voters, with Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty placing second with 16 votes. Arizona State running back Cameron Skattebo got the other vote.
Hunter helped the No. 20 Buffaloes (9-3) earn a berth in the Dec. 28 Alamo Bowl against No. 17 BYU (10-2), playing 688 snaps on defense and 672 on offense. He has 92 receptions for 1,152 yards and 14 touchdowns to go along with 32 tackles, four interceptions and 11 passes defensed in 12 games.
Hunter already won his second straight Paul Hornung Award as the nation’s most versatile player. He is a finalist for the Heisman Trophy and also up for the Walter Camp, Maxwell, Biletnikoff and Bednarik awards.
