Travis Hunter’s Classy Quote Shows Colorado Never Took North Dakota State Lightly
Star wide receiver Travis Hunter and the Colorado Buffaloes kicked off the 2024 college football season in exciting fashion Thursday night with an entertaining 31–26 win over North Dakota State at Folsom Field.
Colorado is a team bursting with electrifying talent at certain positions, especially at wide receiver and cornerback with the two-way star Hunter leading the way. North Dakota State, on the other hand, is an FCS powerhouse.
But Colorado didn’t focus on the “FCS” part of the Bison’s resume when preparing for the season opener.
“We have a lot of respect for them,” Hunter told ESPN’s Scott Van Pelt after the Buffaloes’ win. “We watched a lot of film. I watched 10 hours of film this week—just on those guys.
“We had to respect them. And it showed why we had to respect them because they came out to play.”

Hunter had a monster game against North Dakota State, catching seven passes for 132 yards and three touchdowns—including a 41-yard reception for a score in the first quarter. He also collected three tackles on defense.
His extra preparation clearly paid off.

SBHE to Review Ray Richards Alterations
(KNOX) – The North Dakota Board of Higher Education is being asked to weigh in on the reconstruction of Ray Richard’s Golf Course in Grand Forks. The upgrades and deferred maintenance improvements are the result of the pending DeMers Avenue/42nd Street Underpass project.
UND sold 6.5 acres of the nine hole course to the North Dakota Department of Transportation for the grade separation. During the road construction the golf course will be realigned and reduced to a par 34 course. UND will also address underground utilities and irrigation systems. The total cost is around 4.5 million dollars.
The course will close for the 2026 and 2027 seasons. The goal is to reopen in 2028. SBHE is expected to approve the design at its April 30th meeting.
Crews are expected to begin preliminary work on the $90 million dollar underpass project this week. The initial phase will have minimal impacts to traffic on both 42nd Street and DeMers Avenue. Larger impacts are expected later this summer.
