College football world reacts to Jimmy Horn Jr.'s massive night
Wide receiver Jimmy Horn Jr. is having himself a night in Colorado football's season opener against the North Dakota State Bison. At the time of writing, Horn has torched the Bison for 191 receiving yards and a touchdown on six catches through three quarters of action. Those numbers should only get bigger as Colorado's offensive continues to impress on Thursday evening at Folsom Field.
Horn is entering his second season with the Buffs and has obvious chemistry with CU quarterback Shedeur Sanders. We are officially on stat watch, as Horn's 191 yards already represent a career-high. His career-high in catches was set in the season opener last year when he caught 11 passes against TCU.
Here's how social media reacted to Horn's massive Week 1 performance:
