Colorado two-way star Travis Hunter wins Heisman Trophy as college football's top player NEW YORK (AP) Two-way star Travis Hunter of Colorado has won the Heisman Trophy, punctuating a tireless performance all season by a dynamic player with a unique combination of skills.

The big-play wide receiver and lockdown cornerback dominated on both sides of the ball for coach Deion Sanders and the Buffaloes, joining late running back Rashaan Salaam in 1994 as the only players in school history to take home college footballs most prestigious individual award.

Hunter received 552 first-place votes and 2,231 points in a comfortable victory.

Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty was the runner-up with 309 first-place votes and 2,017 points, the closest margin since 2009.
