Travis Hunter grabbed his latest interception of the first quarter of Colorado’s game against Utah and hit the Heisman pose.

Safe to say, the campaign is very much on for the two-way star. Hunter’s third pick of the year kept Colorado up 14-3 at the end of the first quarter.

You can see the interception and the Heisman pose below.

Heisman frontrunner? It seems like Hunter might be in the driver’s seat.

Hunter has excelled on both sides of the football this season. He has 69 catches, 856 yards, nine touchdowns and 12.4 yards per catch going into Saturday’s game against the Utes.

On defense, Hunter has 21 tackles, one tackle for loss, two interceptions (well, now three), seven pass deflections and one forced fumble.

“He is the favorite by a wide margin for the Heisman trophy,” FOX Sports’ Joel Klatt said. “Nobody is doing anything close to what he’s doing right now. He played 170 snaps against Texas Tech. 170 That is absurd, absurd … Travis is incredible, man. And here’s the thing: you look up at the end of the day, he’s got nine catches, 99 yards a touchdown. His touchdown was terrific. He’s played 170 snaps. He is going to win the Heisman if Colorado gets to the Big 12 championship game, and he should, because no one else is doing this. Like all due respect to Ashton Jeanty, you’re having a great year, but like a Mountain West running back is not winning the Heisman Trophy over a guy that’s in the Big 12 doing what he’s doing on both sides of the ball … 

“I had someone tell me, like, well, his defensive statistics like, they’re non existent. Yes. So were Deion Sanders. And you know why? Because no one threw at him. He’s that dominant. He’s taking away a side of the field, a player from the offense. So like, Travis is doing things that I’m just like, that’s incredible. I can’t wait to go and watch him on Saturday, and again, just to appreciate what we’re seeing. Because Travis Hunter is one of one, and he is right now the favorite for the Heisman trophy. Period. Period.”
