Meanwhile, a controversial hit by Dallas Turner on Jayden Daniels raises questions about targeting penalties, highlighting the blurred line between what is considered dirty and what is not.

Sanders, who transferred from South Carolina to play with his brother at Jackson State before joining Colorado, wears the same number as his father did during his career.
