After Seeing BigXthaPlug Perform In The Locker Room, I'm All In On Colorado This Year

Some people swear by stats, others rely on the infamous “eye test,” but for me? It’s all about the aura. Last night’s game was a perfect example of why aura matters. Travis Hunter was absolutely electric, putting on a masterclass performance that had everyone who didn’t bet on him for the Heisman—myself included—feeling like total idiots. And let’s not forget Shedeur Sanders. The guy looked every bit like a future NFL first-round pick. His elite underthrows drew pass interference calls, he launched accurate bombs downfield, and he showed off a natural ability to evade the rush and make clutch plays for his team.

But here’s the thing: what really impressed me wasn’t just what happened on the field—it was what went down off the field. 

Enter BigXthaPlug. If you don’t know who BigX is, let me introduce you to the guy that everyone’s calling “next up.” BigX is one of the hottest names in the rap game right now, and if you haven’t heard his tracks yet, you better start catching up. His music is a whole vibe, and he’s quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with. Still skeptical? Well, let me tell you a little story about Dana Beers. 

Now, Dana Beers might’ve started out as just your average beer-guzzling hillbilly, but that was before BigX came into the picture. I introduced Dana to BigX’s music, and it was like watching a transformation in real-time. BigX didn’t just change Dana’s playlist; he changed his whole outlook on life. Dana went from shotgunning Bud Lights to vibing out to BigX tracks, and let me tell you—he’s never been the same since. 

So while everyone’s out there drooling over Hunter’s stats and Sanders’ NFL-ready skills, I’m over here paying attention to the real MVP of the night: the aura. It’s not just about what happens during the game, but also the energy that surrounds it. Whether it’s a future Heisman winner, a budding NFL star, or the next big name in hip-hop, aura is what ties it all together. And last night, the aura was off the charts.
