Hey there, fellow tennis enthusiasts It’s your girl Mia Johnson-Carter, and today I’m excited to share some thrilling moments from college football that can teach us a thing or two about perseverance and teamwork. While we’re all about the racquets and courts, it’s always fascinating to see how other sports can inspire us.
Let’s dive into one of the most chaotic and exciting games of the season: the matchup between Colorado and Baylor. This game was a real nail-biter, with quarterback Shedeur Sanders leading the Buffaloes in an incredible comeback against Baylor.

The game saw Shedeur Sanders being sacked four times on five plays on Colorado’s final drive, yet he managed to lead his team down into Hail Mary territory. The first deep throw he attempted was perfectly placed, but wide receiver Will Sheppard dropped the ball. However, on the final play of the game, Sanders worked his magic, finding wideout LaJohntay Wester in the endzone for one of the most impressive plays you’ll see all season, tying the game at 31.
This throw by Sanders is one of the most impressive you’ll see all season from any QB. Rolling to his left, pressure closing in, Sanders uncorks a missile that he puts in the only spot his receiver can get, and Wester makes an incredible play to haul this one in without it hitting the ground. This play shows us that even when things seem impossible, determination and skill can make all the difference.
The game went into overtime, where Colorado took the lead. Baylor drove and attempted to score but was stopped by superstar corner Travis Hunter, who made a great play to force a fumble, ending the game and sealing a roaring Buffalo comeback.
This moment highlights what makes college football so awesome: the absolute scenes of chaos and unpredictability. It’s a reminder that no matter how tough things get, teamwork and determination can lead to victory.
