The combination that will be in Boulder in 2023 connected on Saturday in the fourth quarter of the Celebration Bowl for Jackson State.
Shedeur Sanders threw an 18-yard touchdown pass to five-star recruit Travis Hunter and the Tigers took a 27-26 lead as they looked to finish an undefeated season against a rugged North Carolina Central team/
Deion Sanders had Jackson State go for a 2-point conversion but Shedeur Sanders was sacked and the game remained at a one-point difference.
