Well you sure it's not that
I agree Pinix should have won the Heisman trophy. He is amazing. !
18:40 Klatt finding a way to sneak in his iconic Hampton by Hilton sponsor segment was fantastic🤣🤣
I laughed so hard when I saw it😂
Me too haha! Anyone who watched the podcast definitely cracked a smile there
Thank you Joel Klatt for saying Penix should’ve won the heisman. Best QB play came from him this year
Jayden Daniel’s had 1000 more rushing yards and 700 less passing yards. Less turnovers and 15 more TDs. Daniels was clearly better. It’s not smart to operate in hindsight.
As a Michigan fan, I also thought Penix should have won the Heisman. He will be a top 2 pick in the draft.
Go Blue 〽️
Michigan vs Everybody
@@Jarel_317empty stats
@@Jarel_317Soft as charmin SEC schedule 🤡
@@Jarel_317 Penix Jr is undefeated lead the NCAA in passing has a chance to win the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. Meanwhile Jayden racked up meaningless stats against Georgia state and another bottom tier team. Winning doesn’t mean anything no more I see.
Brethren, we're going to lose Klatt in a couple of weeks once the season is over 🥺This time of the year is rough!
He has a show😂
Hoping he calls some of the XFL
@@willsportzyeah but it’s not the same with him not roasting Colin
Who cares lol
Love Joe & Colin.
That Harbaugh story was dope. We love Macdonald in Baltimore. We want him here for a long time but he will probably be a head coach after this season
And then we grab Minter and bring him back
@@frankl3518 if Michigan wins it all, and I'm a Michigan fan so I'm biased but I think they will, Jim is going to go to the Chargers as the HC and Minter will become with new HC at Michigan with a huge salary to match. Mark it.
@JessBeautyJunkie I was thinking that. Chargers or wherever. Minter might go with Jim. I'm also a biased Ravens fan. So we're like 2nd cousins lol. I want Minter to come home
I would be shocked if Harbaugh left Michigan! It’s home and he would be a King and legend. Plus a new contract as the highest paid coach!
@@JessBeautyJunkieIF Harbaugh leaves, Sherrone Moore is the next HC most likely
The Hampton by Hilton breakfast mention was classic.
Glad they’re giving Washington & Penix his due, their team has been great all year and he’s playing absolutely lights out. Also I’m 100% with Klatt that this year really showed a need for an expanded 8-team playoff. On a side note, that quote “bye bye, everyone has a funeral” was a fire by Colin.
It’s 12-team bro
It's going to be 12 teams. It should be 8 or 6.
@@TJ_Loves2fish6 feels right, 1&2 get a bye so nobody gets to push FSU around on a free week. This year would probably have been Texas v Georgia, Alabama v FSU. Then Michigan/Alabama & Washington/Georgia, Michigan/Georgia final, Georgia wins. Funny that the best team didn't play in the playoff and all the press was about a pretty average team that got left out...
@@wgriffin3460they ain't the best team if they ain't still in it bub😂😂😂😂
Go blue! Penix looked NFL in the Sugar Bowl though
Klatt highlighted college football’s biggest strength so well, its tribalism that’s rooted in either going to a school or living in the same town as one your whole life, and how that’s something so emotional that’s intrinsically tied to your identity as a person. Sure the NFL is a better sports product, but it’s almost sanitized to the point of boredom (that and the insatiable corporate greed leaves a sour taste). If a team wins by 10 in the NFL it’s seen as a dominant win, whereas in college, it’s so volatile (because it’s played by 20 year olds) that in any game a 10 point lead is not a safe cushion in the slightest and that’s what makes the sport so exciting and heart wrenching. It’s the heart-on-sleeve, immature and a bit sloppy garage band compared to the NFL’s clinical, precise and calculated pop hit. Both are enjoyable but for very different reasons.
This is very true and why it can be hard to really buy into college football if you’re not from a school or certain area. I grew up in NY where college football isn’t really a thing so I don’t have the same passion as Klatt.
Good analysis.
That tribalism is why some ppl simply don’t care.
@@tjayd1225tribalism is why people are into sports
@@Nodnarb518it’s like European soccer but in America. If you didn’t grow up in a place where it was the dominant sport it is harder to be as passionate about it.
Smartest college football commentator, love Joel love college football
Good lord their chemistry is so legendary - Klatt & Herd is instant click
Michigan’s (Ravens style) defense was tenacious with 10 plays for loss. Many of those were big yardage losses! The Wolverines D was the difference in this game ultimately. The way DE Stewart (#5) blew up the last offensive play of the game by Bama with a pancake of Bama’s right guard (who Milroe tripped over) was awesome! And the last drive to tie the game by Michigan reminds me of Tom Brady. JJ is becoming that guy who can get you a score and a win at crunch time like Brady! Huge Rose Bowl win!
Absolutely. I think if Milton doesn’t trip, he bounces left and scores. That was the real difference maker I don’t see enough people talking about.
@@chadrickjennings7873 Absolutely! 👍
@@chadrickjennings7873he didn’t trip, Josiah Stewart pushed Latham (a 3* 245 lb guy pushing a 360 lb 5* 3 yards) into Milroes path, and Milroe ran into Lathams leg. No accidental trip, just bama getting completely outphysicaled
Wash wind
Wins
The way Klatt breaks down Penix is insane, mid way thru his description I was like wow this is next level analysis. He’s easily Colin’s best segment. And I get college football tribalism but the thing that will always hurt that is that I don’t have to have went to a certain college to be a die hard fan of the Seahawks or 49ers etc. in college If I didn’t go to Michigan, Ohio state, Bama, etc then I more than likely will not care
Bam!!! Spot on!!
it is great.if you played ball then you know what he is saying and appreciate it even more. its too bad that more "gurus" know it
I think college football also gains tribalism in having it represent your state in a way. Most of the Michigan fans I know never went to the University but because they are from Michigan they are die hard fans. I even know die hard Michigan fans from Canada lol, but they are very close to the Detroit border so it’s their closest team as well
@@picklesz745 why is that funny that there are Michigan fans in Canada?
@@picklesz745 there are a lot of Canadians who played in college and coach/ed in college
As a 49er fan, watching the Michigan miscues reminded me of the 2011 NFC Championship Game where Kyle Williams muffed the ball twice on punts. Jim’s teams play with the most heart I’ve ever seen a coach get out of players, but mistakes happen at the worst moments
i don't Kyle William's muffed punts had anything to do with Jim Harbaugh, pretty sure that's just a thing that will randomly happen to any team being coached by any coach lol but point otherwise taken
BROOOO KYLE WILLIAMS! WOW WHAT A THROWBACK 😭🤣 I’ll never forget that name and what’s sad is that he was actually a good player for us moving forward haha
I’m an Aussie. I was enthralled. Love, love college ball in all sports, hyper young kids going at it, all day and twice on Sundays
What does being an Aussie have to do with anything?
College Football is an American sport, so I assume they're saying they're not culturally conditioned to care about it
@@KiDSteeZev They don't play American style football in Australia so for an Australian to like it is quite an honor for us here in the USA. Thank you Rapahel Bashamella! Most foreigners find it very violent, interrupted constantly and wondering why a touchdown is so many points. Australian football players wear shorts and don't put on all that protective equipment.
@@KiDSteeZev you really have to think about that one?
The Rose Bowl for whatever reason has thee best games hands down. Should be the finale every season moving forward.
The Hampton by Hilton plug was 🤌🤌🤌
It is crazy that the two teams that dropped punts won.
Florida State's full staffed defense would have shut down all for teams! And now we'll never Know!!
@@StoneThrowing-bp7eiIf you're going to copy and paste a comment all over, at least use the correct "four"
@@StoneThrowing-bp7ei BURN!
You got burned 🔥 😵
Btw, availability is an element of the game and cannot be excused. Next man up!
Klatt’s Hampton plug is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen on this segment lmao
Colin and Joel are always hilarious we need a podcast with these 2 sadly we will never get it
Is there anything sweeter than knowing that no matter who wins, it won't be an SEC team?
So happy I could cry.
Why? This is like when people hated the Patriots for winning.
I guess the sec we’ll have to settle for 4 out of the last five.
Don't care. Not this year.@@nathanmorris5588
So does that mean the SEC is the best conference?
They should be glad Michigan didn’t have to play Georgia.
hey Michigan y'all were dominant and better than we were all season i mean that game was just awesome and legendary to watch along with Texas vs Washington so y'all go ahead and celebrate like crazy and you guys definitely deserve it and don't worry about that game Alabama fans we had a great year anyway and im not even mad that we lost to Michigan 27-20 sure it's definitely disappointing but still it is what it is so yeah and Michigan fans i know it's been a while since y'all won the championship so go ahead and enjoy it and I'll definitely be rooting for you guys in the championship game against Washington next Monday night roll tide and go blue.😊🎉.
Thank you sir🫡 was a phenomenal game amongst 2 of the great programs of the sport. Bama had a great season and sure gave us a heck of a scare in that one. Nothing but class from Saban and AL fans, appreciate the kind words✊🏽 GO BLUE
@@stevenselleck5460 well hey thanks a lot I appreciate that hope you guys win go blue.😊
@@KidLatin27 That game will be shown for decades to come. Alabama had an off year, but they were still a very tough challenge. The players , coaches and fanbase should not be disappointed in what they accomplished this year, there is still a lot to learn from this loss and will only make Bama stronger and formidable. I appreciate the class that you/ the fanbase is showing and the challenge your team gave to my Wolverines, it was an Ali vs. Frazier type matchup. Look forward to the future matchups between these 2 and wish you a very happy new year.
@@joevukovich2626 hey thanks I appreciate that and the fact that you said that it was like that ali farzer fight I love that I'm surprised that you jump up and down saying and yelling down goes bama down goes bama Michigan has survived against Alabama and they will play Washington for the championship game but hey at was fun hey I'll be rooting for you guys to win the championship against Washington next Monday night you guys have fun.
@@KidLatin27 HAHA. I definitely said something along those lines, but it only goes to show how dominant Alabama has been over the past 2 decades. That game, with that setting, and the story book history of both teams made the game all the more glorious. As a realist, the story isn't done, these programs are bound to meet again.
Love the idea of finishing at the Rose Bowl. Maybe cut the regular season back to 11 games, so conference championships are done the last week of November. Conference champs get a bye, all others play the first week of December, with a two week break before the title game.
The powerhouse schools could easily quit playing the 1 or 2 cupcakes built into their schedule usually the first month of the season.
The Rose Bowl wouldn't like the idea. They want the power to pick their teams (hence a brand name like Alabama), which you can do only in early rounds. When it gets down to the last two, you are stuck with whichever team makes it that far
Hands down and for so much at stake......that was the best day I have ever witnessed in College Football. Both games wins decided on the final play ...period.
Cowherd’s “thank you” when Klatt said Penix deserved the Heisman was perfect
Klatt’s idea about ending the season at the Rose Bowl is a great idea and would help fix the cfb schedule (listen to whole thought at end of video)
They do it in college baseball with Omaha the Rose Bowl would be even better
Klatt is right, the Rose Bowl makes sense as the championship!!!
We are part of Michigan! Our son graduated from Michigan, Class of 2023. We were on campus for the past 4 years. We attended the games and activities. I was always a Michigan fan, 2nd generation, however now we are part of Michigan and can say, We Are Michigan! College ball is better than Pro.
I am ill today so I’m home so I have watched many shows commentating on the semi finals. This was BY FAR the most interesting with such intelligent takes. Colin and Joel are the BEST! I’m gonna look for Joel on TH-cam
One of their best segments all season!
Klatt roasted Jmac so bad at the end 😂
The number of times I saw Penix throw a ball against OR and TX where I think to myself, "I don't know how you defend that", is remarkable. We'll see if that translates against MI.
Dude ..making the rose bowl the national championship game on New Year’s Day is genius.
Jayden Daniels was probably the 4th best option for the Heisman this year
If that. Padded stats and 3 losses. I'll call it The Heist Man
Crazy....yall must be on drugs
@@caramelpop9427 LSU wasn’t even a relevant team this year (outside of the top 10 by the end of the year) and he wasn’t even as impressive as Malik Nabers who was on his own team.
Bama shoulda stuck with the run game, thats why their 3rd quarter was so good. Unfortunately Milroe is not a QB you can rely on to theow hes more of an athlete that runs. Michigan looked like traditional Bama up front and was more physical. Bama kept it close and but the better team won. Great game
Bama kept it close?! Bama had the lead the final 20 minutes of the game until a minute and change in the game when um tied it up.
I love listening to these two talk ball.
Our 2nd to last Klatt/Colin adventure. My favorite segments of the week. THANKS GUYS
I see ya Joel with the Hampton by Hilton shout out. Keep them checks rollin, brother.
Texas fan - I totally agree that last play was open, but honestly Washington outplayed us that whole game. Would have been pretty unfair to win because of the injury timeout
Would not have been unfair, that's football. Ewers just choked, If Manning was in we win that game.
Florida State's full staffed defense would have shut down all for teams! And now we'll never Know!!
@@StoneThrowing-bp7ei fsu players showed how much they cared about there program, brothers in arms, and fan base when they opted out in a bowl game. no respect
@@JoshuaDuncan-um7loJust because his name is Manning doesn’t make him amazing. If he was better than sewers he would’ve played.
@@jacquesbreaux4108no one gave them respect so why should they?
joel klatt and colin cowherd makes up the best duo ones informational and the other is enthusiastic its just great
18:45 best plug ever,J.K...I'm a marriott man, myself, but you was smooth with it in the transfer.
To be honest,segment was an all timer.
Thanks, Joel! New Year's Day Rose Bowl should be the championship game ... and then, open the transfer portal the next day! The biggest objections might come from Orange, Sugar, and Fiesta Bowls which may want to stick with New Year's Day. Perhaps, they can be guaranteed the two semi-finals and one of the quarter finals every year. I always enjoy these college football segments with Colin and Joel.
SEC schools should not have to go to the West Coast every year.
I need a video on Colin’s thoughts regarding David Tepper throwing a drink on jaguars fans. That was outrageous
This segment could be an hour. It’s like a warm blanket.
This is the best insight I’ve heard. Great video!!
Joel literally said he’d take McCarthy over Penix like 7 weeks ago
That's a long time to reevaluate your opinion. Especially when it comes to performances on the field. If you're hating on someone for seeing the play in big games and updating their stance you must be someone too stubborn to ever learn anything new.
KLATT ON TUESDAY
Klatt and Cowherd are the Shaq and Kobe of college football analysis
I love these two guys together. Im going to miss them in the off season.
Also that Hampton plug by Klatt, and stare at the camera was hilarious. Good job by you.
It was either Bama or fsu. Georgia couldn’t get in if they didn’t win their conference when Bama did.
It should’ve been fsu no matter what.
I kinda think it should have been FSU and Arguable between Bama/Texas.
The FSU Georgia game was 🤷♂️. Georgia killed us, but we had 17/22 starters opt out which would not have happened in the playoffs so we get no clarity at all there. Maybe FSU gets killed, maybe not. Can’t say but it stinks we didn’t get a chance.
@@tallytrev1496 I don’t think fsu gets killed and ima Ohio State fan. They got played. Had Georgia beat bama fsu would’ve been in. Problem is they wanted a sec team in, they couldn’t put bama without Texas so fsu was collateral damage. All that talk about a QB injury affecting fsu offense and Milroe throws for 116 yards and sacked 726225 times lmao a joke
@@polo4941 100%
Truth is… Whether you agree or not GA is better team than Bama and FSU. 🤷🏾♀️
GA played horrible at the absolute worst possible time and mind you still came close to beating Bama!
Great season FSU but the committee got this one right but was so wrong about Bama being selected to rep the SEC!
No 1 team drops to No 6 and eliminated from the playoffs 1st time ever... pure craziness
2024 and still the best segment on sports television
One of the best segments in a long time
I was very impressed with Ewers' post game press conference. I haven't seen him like that. I'm already curious about the QB room next year
As big a FlipFlop Colin is to the NFL, he is great at College Football
Will be interesting to see how Michigan does against Washington's OL and Penix's timing and accuracy. Michigan looked really good. But the Alabama center and QB were grab-passing around half the game, which made it a much more containable offense. Not sure UW will contain UM's rush offense all game. Would behoove them to get up early.
If Michigan brings pressure and doesn't give Penix time to throw it'll be hard for Washington to move the ball. I'm just happy the underdogs won, everyone was already planning on a Bama-Texas rematch.
Michigan was actually the Vegas favorite against Bama
UW's O-line won the Moore award for best in the country, bama's O-line wasn't even a finalist. Texas had 19 pressures and Penix was still like 14-19 of those pressures with, iirc, 2 drops. Zero sacks. only 11 all year. MPJ was 19-20/411 to the WR trio. If UM plays zone, as like 78% of their plays this year, they will be playing catch up by halftime. OSU and Bama moved the ball OK, and UW is lightyears better...
@@wil8115 nobody is expecting Mich to shut down Penix and that offense, the question is if Wash can do it all game against arguably the best defense in college football, can Wash stop Mich run game? C.J Stroud threw for 400 yds, J Smith-Njigba and G Wilson both had over 100 yds in 2021 against Mich, all 3 were and are top NFL prospects and Ohio State still lost by 2 touchdowns.
@@C-S. not stop it but hopefully limit it. UW has already beaten 7 better rushing teams than UM. the UM defense stats are padded. take away 8 of the worst 34 offences in all of 133 teams, UM is 47th in scoring D, 8th in yd/g, dont have time to look up all the passing stats but they gave up 278avg vs the OK teams they played. and UW has already beaten 8 better offences then UM played ALL year inc bama.. If they cant get to him under 3 secs, he will pick them apart, good luck vs that Oline. they looked great vs Texas and had a good D-line to..
This ep was awesome and hilarious - great takes - thanks, gents! ✌️Eric
That segment on how to fix the portal? That was my thoughts on how to fix opt outs and transfers. Transfer portal comes after the season to improve the quality of the games.
100% this
Joel’s 100% right with the Rose Bowl being the championship game.. it’s called the granddaddy of em all for a reason!!!!!
Michigan is the MOST WINNING College Team in History. FACT. No need to prove anything.
This was a great segment.......Truth all throughout!
Great segment. Will miss it in the offseason. The chemistry makes me feel at home
Undefeated Matters ‼️
Committee got it wrong
Yes because watching Florida state get beat by 30 would have been so much better than watching an overtime game.
@@scottrowlandrowland1098 60*
I agree about this year being super exciting and thrilling. NIL is not killing the game. The transfer portal is not killing the game. Now perhaps the NIL needs some guard-rail rules to even things out a bit. When it comes to most Bowls, they've been dead for years...some for decades. Many of these Bowl games were dead way before the transfer portal and the NIL became a thing. The 12-team playoff has been needed for years. And personally I think we need a playoff for the 13-28 teams. The best of the rest kind of tournament. Sort of an NIT like in men's basketball. Make it fun. Keep it interesting. Let there be a reason for the players to want to play 2 or 3 more games.
100% agree with Joel on the changing of schedule
Joel have you noticed how much you agree with Colin’s takes? It just means the student is paying attention in class. Congrats on being the optimal college football professor.
Alabama has been gradually declining the last several seasons. BUT, that really isn't a knock on Alabama. It's basically what Klatt said. Other teams have been getting talent. Bama used to just get every top 50 player they wanted, stick them on a team, and beat the 2nd best team in the country who had half their talent. Now, you have a lot of teams with talent distribution. The transfer portal hasn't really even taken shape yet. It will make it even wilder. College football has more parody now. It's that simple. People trying to compare any team to some of the older elite Bama teams is just silly. None of the current teams could play with those teams. They had like a dozen first rounders on those teams. It was stupid.
I would disagree to a small extent. Bama has lost a lot of recruits to UGA which had the most first rounders ever in history just 2 seasons ago and produced some recent dominant teams, not to mention both just finished with the #1 & 2 classes. UGA’s only 2 losses in 2 years is Bama. So while it’s true that it’s not just bama the SEC in general has had very dominant teams the last 6 years. Next year with Texas and Oklahoma joining it’ll look a lot like it did this year just with more SEC teams in it.
Alabama is not declining when they have won 10 plus games each season the past 15 yrs. It's NIL and college free agency.
Florida State's full staffed defense would have shut down all for teams! And now we'll never Know!!
Alabama got away with paying their players before NIL. Now the market is leveling off. Unfortunately, there's still major bias in the system. Hopefully that gets corrected.
@@StoneThrowing-bp7ei Ooookaaay
Best quick interview of the year
Totally agree Klatt the rose bowl needs to be the naty
The media is so happy that the Michigan beat the Alabama but they are not happy with the Washington beat the Texas team and you can imagine if the Texas team beat the Washington
The Michigan Wolverines have THE best fight song AND helmet logo in the country hands down 🎤🫳
Agreed 💯
The best back and forth in sports media. Klatt + Coward = Gold
I could listen to these two together for hours. Does Joel have a good podcast?
a healthy Michael Penix is on display. he played hurt the last 5 games. he is saving his best for the Natty. Go Huskies!!!
Lol how that go
thank you Klatt for that rant about Penix not winning the Heisman! the voters did not watch Husky football
Daniels played better than Penix all year, Daniels was the right choice
The Heisman has WAY too many voters. I would bet that at least 75% of the voters are general sports fans who focus on college football as an afterthought, and pay attention only after the baseball season ends.
If you watched football all year, you understood that Penix and Nix were the best players in the country. Daniels this year and Williams last year had strong numbers, but were especially strong in November when people who should not have a vote started paying attention.
@@caramelpop9427 Daniles played better? Lost 3 games to 0 games for Penix. Who did Daniels beat? Lost to Bama, Ole Miss, FSU. Only 1 win over a ranked team, Missouri. Washington beat Oregon (twice), Arizona, Oregon St, Utah, USC, and Texas, and haven't lost yet.
I agree with most of what you both said sbout this era of college football. I just wish you also talked about the opt-outs.
And Yes! Penix is Elite. He's not in my team, and he stressed me out ALL season
As good as Jayden Daniels is, you can’t tell me he’s better than Penix.
I certainly can.
I love Klatt and Colin together. I don't think Michigan pushed Bama around tho. I do think they matched their physicality, and if you want to say Michigan was slightly more physical I'm fine with that. But both teams had stretches of that game where they imposed their will. Alabama not being able to block Michigan in the 1st Half was more Minter and his pressure paths to me. Michigan has been talked about as a bully all year. I'm still a little surprised at how physical and well coached that defense was. Credit to Harbaugh and Minter and staff
Don’t think Michigan pushed Bama around?
Michigan 6 sacks, 10 TFL
Bama 1 sack, 1 TFL
@jamesy1979 Alabama 172 rushing yards. Michigan 130 rushing yards. 25 of which came in OT. Sacks aren't pushing a team around. Ecspecially when most of them came with Michigan sending pressure. Alabama was leaning on Michigan in that 3rd Quarter. Looked like Michigan was wearing down. Then they turned it around and scored and looked like the fresher team in OT. They were acting like it was one sided. It was a hard fought game
@@frankl3518 Bama had their lowest offensive output their entire season, like 280 total yards of offense. They had 172 rushing yards, most of which came on a few big runs, but that was the only thing that worked for them. Michigan had 500 yards of offense against TCU but still got pushed around in the trenches.
@HyzersGR Because Milroe couldn't complete a pass. Michigan's offense was held down too. People are so funny. If Bama scored on the 4th down and went for 2 and got it nobody would be saying Michigan "pushed them around". But because they lost that's the narrative. It was a very competitive game. Both defenses won their matchups
Michigan dominated line of scrimmage on both sides period....
Joe Klatt is such an insightful and entertaining analyst. Amazing segment. I think his points were spot on. Love the tie in between Michigan and Baltimore defenses.
Great segment, my appreciation of college football is getting better.
The NIL evened the score. Alabama and the SEC always paid players, and they covered each other. Now, the money is not the issue. They all pay players. Alabama is just another team.. They are normal now
I wish that were true, but it’s not. Look at 2024 recruiting. The same handful of schools still dominate.
@@Kaddywompous wait until 2024 season is over, hen tell me this
Michigans nil sucks!!! Developing players wins games.stars in high school mean nothing
@@stevesalisbury3657 Then Michigan is doing it right, long term. Don't pay anyone until they produce for you
@Superfreq69 they are but sometimes 5 star actually is 5 star in college have to atleast get a couple
It’s clear after yesterday’s games that the committee finally got it right on the last try under the current system. Best games ever by the best 4 teams in the country.
Far from right
@@polo4941no it was right
Dude! What are you smoking?
@@user-bo2os5jh6c the two playoff games came down to a final play. That's pretty much getting the matchups right.
Both Michigan and Alabama played terrible. This is the end of the season and they couldn’t field punts, couldn’t snap the ball, couldn’t kick field goals or extra points, could not block. This was a close game. Not a good game. Don’t get them confused.
I love Klatt's idea for the Rose Bowl and the change in schedule
That hotel sponsor shoutout by Klatt was so clean and IYKYK lmao best Klatt show wink ever
Alabama displayed the type of offense that we were told by the experts "was not playoff worthy" as their justification to keep FSU out. I do think Alabama deserved to be in but it just doesn't take away from the absolute robbery that happened to Florida State.
Alabama scored 27 points against Georgia in their Conference Championsship game. FSU scored 16 against Louisville.
Yes Alabama was limited in offense this season. Still less limited than FSU was after their QB got injured.
Well Georgia vs Florida State says Florida State wasn't worthy
@@daverome9212only 1 starter for FSU played that game. If you think that games means anything more than FSU giving the middle finger to the NCAA then you are a Neanderthal. FYI I’m not even close to being a FSU fan.
Bama’s offense was not even remotely as putrid as FSU’s offense, and they were playing a much better defense than FSU faced against Louisville. What an absurd take.
Noles 13-0 Non opted. The best in the top 4.
Buckeye fan. Hate UM. Colors are gross. The fight song is nauseating. The mascot is a rodent. Ann Arbor is a..
Congrats on yesterday. 100% earned this game and deserving to compete for your first natty and a quarter century. Should be a great game Monday
Now Joel, there's no need to attack Blockbuster.
Oh that plug for Hampton by Hilton 😂😂
The Football Gods have spoken: NO Alabama did NOT deserve it because they did NOT go undefeated.
I thought Michigan would win because they look so strong all season. Thought Washington would win because Penix is a better QB. Penix dropped in the basket against defenders all over the receiver. But I was surprised to see how strong Washington is as a whole. I would bet on Washington to win the title.
Agreed, I’m a Michigan fan and am surprised we’re the favorite after watching Washington last night . They are scary, the only chance we have is if they turn it over enough.
I pick wash
Vegas has Michigan by 4.5 points, i always bet against Vegas. I cant wait to watch the game. My friend is letting us watch the game at there house, since we dont own a TV
How much cash you lose penix got exposed
@billdoty6438 than you don't know football
Thank you!
Good point about washington basically looking like Ohio St. I hope it's true and I hope Michigan's defense really is built to stop this type of explosive offense. We'll see. . . .
Alabama deserved… they were leading in the 4th qtr and a 4th down play away from another Natty appearance.
For as much as he’s done, can’t believe how people still disrespect Ole St Nick.
Joel Klatt is always spot on with college football. College football should listen to him about some of this playoff stuff. FCS does it right and FCS fans watch those playoff games as they are all big games to them. FBS, I rarely turn the TV on to any of these boring bowl games, I only wanna see the playoffs and the meaningful games.
Literally every level of football, from high school to the NFL, gets playoffs right except for FBS.
They start off blathering so much over Sark and losing Texas play rather than giving kudos to Dawgs D and Penix shredding the secondary. Priorities..😮
I’m a huge NFL fan and I only really watch the college football playoffs but, with this playoff expansion I will definitely watch more college ball. Tbf I never did get the 4 playoff team thing.
You were exhausted. I’m a Michigan fan and I’m wiped out after that game.m
Best coverage of the game 👍
"sorry J-Mac, everyone has a funeral" LOL man these Klatt segments are sports radio GOLD
Good segment
Always Cowherds best segment of week. Not news to anyone I know but still true
