Watch: Colorado's Shilo Sanders huge hit with forced fumble vs. UCLA
Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports

Colorado Buffaloes defensive back Shilo Sanders wasn't going to be mowed over. The physical beast stood up UCLA's Carson Steele and won the battle by forcing a fumble with the Bruins driving in the second quarter. It was another highlight for the Jackson State transfer, who came up with a huge turnover.

Colorado took an early lead off over No. 23 UCLA with two Alejandro Mata field goals. They're sticking close with the Bruins, down 7-6 near halftime. Shedeur Sanders started off strong, but haven't fully cashed in on possessions. He looks a little shook up in the early going. 

Travis Hunter is playing both ways tonight at the Rose Bowl. He already has two interceptions and look very stout coming back from missing time. Colorado will look to stack up some type of momentum with the defense outworking UCLA's offense.
