Cam Newton hasn’t tasted victory on the NFL gridiron in a while, but that didn’t stop the former Carolina Panthers quarterback from delivering a virtual thrashing to Colorado Buffaloes standout Travis Hunter. Newton’s 42-20 triumph over Hunter on College Football 25 was showcased on his secondary YouTube channel, “More Cam Newton,” and the internet exploded.
With the NFL off-season in full swing, fans hungry for football action turned to social media, rallying behind Newton. One fan, dripping with disdain, remarked, “Hunter’s just a sore loser. Watch him get dismantled by Cam Newton on NCAA.” Another echoed the sentiment, saying, “Cam Newton smoking Hunter’s boots on NCAA 25 is brutal, especially with his girl on stream.“
The commentary continued, with one fan bemused, “Why do people think they can take on NFL quarterbacks in any football game? Cam Newton gave Hunter a beating in that first game.” The reactions were swift and plentiful, painting a picture of a community unified in their amusement at Hunter’s expense.
