There’s no player in college football quite like Colorado’s Travis Hunter. The wide receiver and cornerback is supremely talented, takes a ton of snaps (when he’s healthy) and regularly wows college football fans.
Saturday in Colorado’s home game against Cincinnati was no different, but this time the stunned reactions were more about his celebration than his touchdown catch.
The Buffaloes got on the board first with quarterback Shedeur Sanders connecting with Hunter for a three-yard touchdown pass on second-and-goal early in the first quarter. After the score, Hunter made sure there was no one behind him before doing a backflip and landing like Spider-Man, mimicking a shooting web out of his wrist and everything.

Just, wow.
Hunter has had some cool celebrations in the past, including when he posed like the Heisman Trophy as one of the frontrunners. But a Spider-Man-style backflip has to be one of the best.
