  11/16/25 - Boo Carter, Jr/2028, Colorado, 5-10, 200 (DS#8 FS) + More +

  Defensive back Boo Carter no longer is on No. 20 Tennessee's roster after not being at Neyland Stadium for the Volunteers' last game. A Tennessee spokesman confirmed Sunday that Carter is no longer on the program. Asked if Carter was at the Vols' win Saturday over New Mexico Stat e, coach Josh Heupel was brief. "At the end of the day, there's a standard you've got to meet to be in that locker room and so he was not out on the field with us," Heupel said. "That'll be my last response to anything related to that for right now." Carter had to work his way back onto the field to start preseason practice after reportedly missing workouts this summer.

He made the Southeastern Conference All-Freshman team for starting five of 13 games. He ranked sixth with 38 tackles, including 28 solo. He also led the SEC averaging 16.5 yards per punt return. He played in nine games this season and led Tennessee returning 11 punt returns for 145 yards with a 13.1-yard average. He also had one sack, 25 tackles, broke up three passes and forced three fumbles. Carter thanked Tennessee fans, coaches and administrators on social media Sunday afternoon. - AP College Football

  10/11/25 - Kaidon Salter, rSr/2026, Colorado, 6-1, 195 (DS#36 QB) + More +

  Kaidon Salter tossed two touchdown passes and Colorado's defense came up big in the fourth quarter with an interception and a fourth-down stop to help the Buffaloes beat No. 22 Iowa State 24-17 on Saturday. Salter threw for 255 yards, including a 70-yard TD strike to Omarion Miller, as the Buffaloes (3-4, 1-3 Big 12) snapped a two-game skid. Salter took a knee to close out the game and threw the ball high into the air. The students rushed the field despite warnings from the public address announcer. It was the second win over an AP Top 25 team since coach Deion Sanders took over at Colorado. Sanders was on the sideline after undergoing surgery related to his blood clots earlier in the week.

The momentum flipped early in the fourth quarter with the Cyclones (5-2, 2-2) facing third-and-goal at the 7. Rocco Becht was intercepted by Tawfiq Byard, but a flag was thrown for an apparent pass interference behind the play. The officials huddled for a moment before waiving off the flag. Iowa State coach Matt Campbell was livid on the sideline. He was still angry and yelling at the officials after the Cyclones forced a Buffaloes punt. Soon after, Iowa State faced a fourth-and-1 at their 18 only to be stuffed by Colorado. It led to a 29-yard field goal by Alejandro Mata to make it 24-17. Salter's short TD pass to Joseph Williams in the third quarter gave the Buffaloes the lead for good. Salter also hit Williams for a 38-yard gain late in the fourth that sealed the victory. Williams had eight catches for 128 yards. Abu Sama III ran for 177 yards and a pair of short touchdowns for the Cyclones, who have dropped two in a row. - Colorado/AP College Football

Mitchell's 10 stops were the second-most by any CUSA player in week six, and he was the only CUSA player with multiple passes defended (two PBU, 1 INT).
