Travis Hunter hits backflip, Spider-Man touchdown celebration suggested by Kai Cenat

The Colorado Buffaloes and the Cincinnati Bearcats were battling it out on Saturday night on ESPN. Travis Hunter of Colorado was so amped up for the game, he even planned a touchdown celebration before the game with Kai Cenat, a YouTuber. When Hunter scored a touchdown on Saturday night, he had to pay homage to his friend and perform the Spider-Man celebration, where he did a backflip and shot out the spider web.

Hunter once again shows off his insane athleticism with how easy he’s able to pull this backflip off.

Hunter is one of the more electrifying players in all of college football and it’s pretty amazing how effortless he made that backflip look. He’s just a remarkably gifted athlete. And he was a problem on Saturday night for the Bearcats, hauling in nine catches for 153 receiving yards and two touchdowns.

As a defensive back, he had two tackles, and four passes defended. He continues to dominate as one of the most impressive two-way players in college football history.

And kudos to Hunter for the creativity on the celebration. He’s an entertainer at heart and good for him for giving football fans yet another element to enjoy. Colorado came away with a 34-23 win on Saturday, making them bowl eligible for the first time since 2016.

Tim Tebow on Travis Hunter and the Heisman Trophy

Tebow recently talked about how difficult it could be to evaluate Travis Hunter in the Heisman Trophy race.

“It’s extremely difficult to evaluate,” Tebow said Thursday on ESPN’s Heisman Trophy Preview Show. “And you look at him and do you say, ‘Wow, he’s an explosive receiver?’ Or do you look at him and say he’s a shutdown DB? Do you evaluate him as just a playmaker? And I really think you’ve really got to do all three.

“But when you really look at him, you say, ‘Where would Colorado be without him?’ And they wouldn’t even be close. I think that’s one of the things that we have to take into account in voting on the Heisman is where would this team be without him? And they’re not the same team. I think that’s where you have to give a lot of credit to this young man is the fear that he puts in an opposing offense or defense of every time he steps foot on the field, that team has hope, that team is different, that team believes because they believe in him. That’s something that we really have to evaluate.”
