Fans Are Calling For Colorado State Safety To Be Suspended
Last night's rivalry game between Colorado and Colorado State was a physical affair but many fans believe one Rams player crossed the line.
After CSU safety Henry Blackburn took a cheap shot on Buffaloes star Travis Hunter, which eventually knocked him out of the game, a lot of people were calling for the senior DB to be suspended:
"Henry Blackburn should be suspended for the next two games," a user said. "CSU just a bunch of dirty players they won't win games like that. They are not a disciplined team."
"Henry Blackburn should be suspended for the rest of the year. Most classless play I've seen in football or sports in a long time," another tweeted.
"Your Colorado State squad played cheap and dirty all night, and got what it deserved," a fan tagged Jay Norvell. "If you were any kind of coach….Henry Blackburn would be suspended for his dirty late hit. Whole country was, and is, rooting against you and your team."
"Henry Blackburn should have been ejected & suspended. Totally uncalled for," commented Chris Moreno.
Blackburn appeared to taunt Hunter after the play as well. Later in the game, he was juked out of his shoes by Jimmy Horn Jr. on the way to the endzone for the game-tying touchdown.
