FOX Sports’ lead college football analyst Joel Klatt unveils his Preseason Top 25 rankings for the upcoming College Football season. Klatt begins with the 2-time defending champion Georgia Bulldogs before revealing how much separation is between Michigan and Ohio State as well as their division rival Penn State. He gets into why he’s higher on Alabama than most before getting into how he stacks a potentially deep group of Playoff contenders including LSU, Florida State, Clemson, USC and another Pac-12 school which he thinks could be better than all of them. Klatt also walks through his process as he went through the annual struggle of deciding where to rank Texas before a season.

Do you agree with Klatt's Preseason Top 25 rankings?
Love it Klatt! Best most unbiased CFB analyst out there!
Ohio doesn’t have any competition till the end of the year, then they fall after playing cupcakes.
How can you still rank Ohio St and Mich when they can’t win a playoff game? Ever
Wreck em
LSU no way under Kelly sorry boys that's not going to fly
Typical Klatt forgetting that Oregon beat Day in Columbus
It really is a shame that as soon as the Pac-12 gets it together with top heavy teams, they split apart. Makes sense since the Pac-12 can never have anything nice.
Since Deion Showed up Klatt has done a 180 on USC. Even he has succumbed to bias
Ohio St. all day!!!!
Love how underrated my DUCKS are. Going to be great winning the last season of PAC-12. Ranking USC so high without a defense that can tackle lol
Not a south Carolina fan but they are being slept on so hard smh
I'm confused. Caleb Williams or Michael Penix will win the Heisman. Marvin Harrison Jr is the best player in football. So why doesn't MHJ win the Heisman?
Go Blue! 〽️
Alabama is gonna win it all this season. Every time there are QB concerns (going back to 09’) they win the National Championship. They’ll be more run heavy, be better on defense and win it all.
PAC12 with 5 teams in the top 15? The PAC12 should be strong for the next few seasons
I hope the pac 12 has a really good season and beaks viewership records. Also hope Oregon state (and Washington state) hand it to the teams leaving the pac 12
6-7 OU over ND. Clown show.
Like oklahomas losses are significantly worse than NDs losses from last year.
Did he really say Marvin Harrison is the best player and not Caleb
Texas longhorns going to win it all
At 33:00 he was finna be racists 😂😂😂😂
I think and, have said this on many Georgia podcast that Day is a great coach, like you said he's just got to finish some of the high profile games
It's official, Joel Klatt is the best Sports Analyst in College Football. I would also like to see him as a member of ESPN's College GameDay Show but can't since he is under contract with Fox Sports. Wish he could be on both.
Hot take: South Carolina will have a better season than Tennessee.
I'm a Michigan fan, but they're weak due to their QB JJ and ought not be in the top 10.
Tenn also got Bama first.
Georgia got a lot of tape and all of Tenn's secrets from the game.
Wow, WA at #6? That's crazy. I figured USC or Utah would've been higher up than WA.
so georgia blew out teams with nfl playbooks and better roster than tenn that didn’t even have enough depth still from the year before and ga has 5 star talent now u say the offense is one dimensional bruh smh
I love this list. Oregon state was a surprise but I like their placement.
ALSO thanks for starting with #1. Made the segment much more enjoyable than working backwards.
You should have Colin Cowherd on. Maybe he can sit to your right in a tiny chair.
PSU diehard, I’m not unbiased, but that means I’ve paid close attention. Klatt’s right, what we’ve been missing has been downfield throwing. Taking the top off. When McSorley would load up and gun it deep to Godwin or Gesicki or Hamilton, the team was nearly unstoppable. Since then, we’d been predictable with Clifford. Limited. Allar is a different kind of QB, a much more dangerous one.
Keep this in mind: PSU had 3 total seniors on defense last year. Only 1 actually got drafted. That defense held OSU to just 16 points until midway through the 4th. Clifford committed like 4 turnovers to the same OSU defensive end who did absolutely nothing for the rest of the year. Was it a fluke? Yes, the Nittany Lions choked.
Penn State has it this year. Michigan is the real prize for them.
Doesn’t matter what the qb situation at Penn St is. Michigan bullied them, should have been 60-0. James Franklin is average. Most overrated next to Tennessee & Oklahoma
lsu at 8 😂😂😂
Klatt's a good game analyst, but not so sure about his rankings.
Penn State ahead of LSU…Are you nuts!!!
Why you an LSU hater Klatt ?
Klatt quietly enters the conversation with one of the worst top 25 lists of the off season.
Georgia should have got beat by Ohio State. Ohio State beat themselves in that game.
Thank you somebody said it fsu didn’t play nobody that’s why they won 10 games they 10th win was against a 6-6 team
Clemson qbs looked like trash last seaon.
This is the best top 25 list yet! #GEAUXTIGAS
I always liked Joel working a game or giving his take. I couldn't stand playing against the dude, because he won the Big XII North (boo), but in the booth, he's a fair and knowledgeable dude.
How long has Joe Milton QB Tennessee has played college football??💯
Klatt you are great but I just don't get how you have TCU out of top 5, this just goes to show the bias of the media for SEC and B10,
Georgia lost a lot to the transfer portal. So the depth thing isn't correct moving forward
Auburn wins national championship
