Fox Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reacts to a great Saturday in the sport beginning with Oklahoma’s upset of #1 Texas as he explains why Arch Manning and the Longhorn offense are so inconsistent and where he dropped them in his Top 10 this week. He then shifts to the thriller in Tuscaloosa as Kirby Smart and Georgia picked up their first win in Tuscaloosa in nearly 20 years. Did the Dawgs prove they are the best team in the country? How should Alabama be viewed after the loss and did the refs cost them that game? Klatt breaks down Indiana’s comeback win at Nebraska and points out the adjustments made to pull it off. Klatt also discusses UCLA’s big win in Eugene over Oregon and why it’s time to consider the Bruins a Playoff contender. Is it time to officially say Oregon is done while they watch their former OC Will Stein lead Kentucky to a Top-10 upset of LSU? Klatt wonders if USC’s win at Penn State will calm the hysteria around Lincoln Riley and the program for now. He reveals his latest Top 10 and explains his rankings for teams like Ohio State and Notre Dame following convincing wins over the weekend.
