[@keenanlukens2206]

I think it’s important to take into account that if Boise gets ranked into the top 12 before the playoffs, you have to consider that in heisman voting since Jeanty is the main reason Boise is in this position. Also, there is no pause when you ask the question if any other player can do what he’s doing, I’m sorry

[@gagekell6907]

For sure. And that’s an easy win against a Colorado team that will probably be 7-5 or 8-4. Hunter plays both sides of the ball and is amazing, but he plays 2 positions that are really difficult to take over the game from

I have what might’ve sounded the craziest of anything before the season: Michigan misses a bowl game. They play (in order of difficulty) Northwestern, Michigan State, Illinois, Indiana, Oregon, and Ohio State. They’ll beat Northwestern, but Michigan State treats the Michigan game as their Super Bowl and always plays tough, so that’s a toss up. Illinois looks dangerous this year, especially for Michigan. Michigan will likely lose to Indiana, Oregon, and Ohio State, going 6-6 at best and 4-8 at worst. And I’m a Michigan fan who thought 8-4 was their floor preseason!

[@chs_ambs8356]

Even Northwestern is questionable. The things that Michigan is doing wrong are among the worst in FBS. We have the 130th ranked offense. Unless Sherrone Moore works some magic over this bye week, I'm not even sure we beat Northwestern.

[@FeistyBunny]

With the way Oregon has been playing this season, I think Michigan b eats them. Lanning cannot coach against good teams, he just yaps against Colorado.

[@benavich8]

Same here, Nathan, we all know about the offensive woes, but to me, the most disappointing aspect of this team has been the defense...they were supposed to be elite, even rated # 1 or 2 in the country...nope. Just not syre Moore was the right call for being coach...more of an emotional pic, imo...

Let's Go Broncos! Here's the thing. Before the video even airs. I have a hard time believing they'll get a first round bye. I love my broncos and I love Jeanty he's a beast. But realistically our schedule was weak. Minus Oregon, Washington State, UNLV coming up, and Oregon state. I feel like we'd have to keep scoring and finish our 11-1 and hope that chaos happens in the big 12 and we manage to be ranked higher. My problem is back in the BCS era when Boise state was a high ranked team they were never respected for playing a weak schedule. Basically I don't think anything's changed and they will still get slotted at the 12 spot. Either way I'm happy if we can secure a spot. I just don't know how likely the committee will give them a first round bye. I think it's a long shot unless some serious chaos happens

[@treydezellem27]

Jeanty is incredible, I knew going in that we’d have to stop him to win and had some confidence from them stopping Martinez last year. Boy was I wrong on that one. Jeanty is in another league from Martinez. Congrats and can’t wait for the future rivalry. Go Cougs!

[@halfthe]

If we win out completely and are the MW champs, we would likely be ranked ~#10 at the end of season. The chance that a B12 will be ranked behind us is higher than not, otherwise, you are counting on BYU or Iowa State to run the table in the B12 which I think is much more unlikely than us running the table in the MW. The truth is, we are playing a harder schedule than we did back in the Moore era. The WAC had much less competition the the current MW/P12 hybrid.

[@dannygillespie6614]

Boise St wins out and Jeanty wins Heisman. Big 12 champ has 3 losses. I think in this world, you get the bye.

Great coverage. I hope you cover teh WVU / ISU game. This game is going to be big in the Big 12 I feel.

Your show is great. Long before becoming a buckeye fan, I was simply a football fan. With the transfer portal and NIL I believe that "upsets" will be far more often than ever. Last weekend is just the beginning. I committed the unforgivable sin by predicting my buckeyes would loose to that team "up north" the last three seasons. For your second scenario of the bickeyes to play Penn as #1 and #2 in November will require my buckeyes to make a LOT more progress. I see a few significant weak spots. I would rank them 5 or 6 right now. Yet, I saw in the alabama georgia game the best team in America only to see their weaknesses exposed. I think my buckeyes are going to have to play Oregon like alabama did against Georgia or vandy did against alabama to beat the ducks, otherwise they will go down with their weaknesses exposed

Wild but possible: Two G5 playoff teams. Boise State. Lone loss was week 2 at Oregon on a last second field goal. Also Jeanty wins the Heisman (as I suspect he will). Undefeated Army or Navy. In what world does an undefeated service academy get passed up for a two or three loss at large SEC team? Playoff picture: Big Ten: Probably OSU, Oregon and Penn State. Long shot Indiana, but lets say 3 spots. Big 12: One team league, take your pick. ACC: Two teams probably. Miami, Clemson and SMU all have a decent shot, but only conference game participants in i think. so 2. Group of 5: Boise State, let's say. So prior to considering the SEC, that's only 7 spots. That still leaves 5 spots. Are there 5 SEC teams going to make it? I'm skeptical. You've got Texas probably and A and M has a good path. That's two. Then there's Georgia, Bama, LSU, Ole Miss, and Tennessee lurking. Ole Miss LSU this week eliminates one of them, let's say Ole Miss out. Then LSU Bama eliminates one of them. And Tennessee plays Bama and Georgia which will certainly knock out one of the three of them. Now you have Texas, A and M, and two more teams from the SEC who survive. And ample space for an undefeated Army or Navy (maybe even a one less Army or Navy! but that might be pushing it). And they still both play ND. If ND beats them both, this spot might be ND's for the taking. In other words, it's chaos.

[@MattBuild4]

Extremely unlikely. Only time two G5 teams made a major post season is still just 2009. And with it being the only example thats the bar youd pretty much have to work with. Reality is NOBODY is even on pace for either of these teams.... 1. Both of them went undefeated. One of them was back to back undefeated 2. One of them beat the ACC Runner up in OOC and the other beat a Top 10 pac champion. 3. One of them had 3 Top 25 wins including 2 25+ point Top 20 wins. 4. One of them ranked #1 in defense in the nation, the other ranked #1 in offense in the nation 5. Both teams ranked in the top 2 for margin of victory at 28+ per game. Again no G5 team is on pace to really accomplish any one of these.

His avg yds per catch not impressive and only 2 picks. He’s definitely top 5 but Not first. And Milroe is the reason Bama got ranked #1 despite a Pathetic Defense. Great Show Again

[@P51DFreak25]

Having a ton of catches is a wild thing to complain about. INTs are a hard thing to also complain about when the ball isn’t being thrown your way a bunch

What happens if Clemson, Miami and SMU all go undefeated in ACC, who makes championship game? Do all 3 make the playoffs?

[@TonyM132]

What does 'ATH' stand for as Travis Hunter's position(s)?

[@spencerstewart8765]

If Boise state got a 9-11 seed would that mean the next best non power 4 team would get the 12 seed or would it go to a power 4 school?

[@odog4show]

Texas is going to have to prove they can beat the Dawgs. I think GA learned a valuable lesson with that slow start against Bama. Make me a believer TX.

[@JoshuaRoe-r7s]

Georgia isn't that good. Other than Texas the SEC isn't that good. I know you all will argue this forever but it seems like that conference forgot how to play defense.😊

[@Twinnerwinner-1554]

Georgia, Bama, OSU, Penn State, TX, Oregon are all going to make it automatically with anything less than 3 losses. Even with 3 losses they probably still make it but it's not a guarantee

[@Hockeywizard5577]

PSU not making it with 3 and they don’t deserve to with 3. Look at our schedule ROS. I don’t see a third team who they could lose to which would look remotely respectable by the committee

[@Twinnerwinner-1554]

@Hockeywizard5577 is a 3 loss PSU a better fit for the CFP than a 2 loss Ole miss? 1 loss Indiana? I would say yes

[@keegandecker4080]

PSU and OSU play 3 times this year Pitt sneaks into a the playoffs with a loss to SMU, and a loss to Clemson in the ACC championship game

[@Jrm-xs9qi]

Pennstate isn’t elite 🤣 not happening

[@cosmic_kid2868]

Why has no one in the media talked about the atrocious ACC officiating as of late?!

[@ryanhogan1561]

Man, just completely disregarding Oregon is offensive. Ohio state has to travel across the country to play a good Oregon team at home where they hardly ever lose… and you’re adding to their bulletin board material also.

[@lukeslc-xd8ds]

I have never heard of Travis Hunter.

[@jeffrywebb1749]

@JoelKlattShow Do you think FBS should do away with rankings? With all the wild swings in these rankings OR not wild enough swings in the rankings based on some terrible losses (looking at you Bama) the rankings seem like a feelings meter more than a ranking. Looking ahead to OSU vs Oregon… if #2 beats #3 by one score, you know Oregon will get punished… that’s stupid right?

[@kylewebb469]

Only teams that don't get huge drops in rankings are SEC teams but they get huge boost for bad wins
