FOX Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reacts to the latest CFP Rankings going into Championship weekend. He breaks down why Notre Dame falling behind Alabama into the last at-large spot at #10 should make Irish fans very nervous. Klatt also explains why Texas looks boxed out of a potential spot despite the big win over A&M and why he believes Miami and Texas’ head-to-head wins should be carrying more weight with the Committee. He then reveals why A&M’s drop all the way to #7 is a huge deal for their hopes of making a run in the Playoff. Klatt then explains why this Playoff selection process is so subjective without defined criteria and gives his fixes for making the process better – including losing weekly reveals. He wraps the show by discussing the latest coaching moves including Kalani Sitake staying at BYU amid interest from Penn State before giving 3 names he believes the Nittany Lions will target now.
