Questioning Deion Sanders after Colorado's 2nd-straight loss? Jim Harbaugh & Michigan | THE HERD

The Colorado Buffaloes may have kept it interesting as they took on the USC Trojans last Saturday, but a loss is a loss, and it's now their 2nd straight loss after falling to the Oregon Ducks. Joel Klatt joins The Herd to decide whether it's too early to start questioning Deion Sanders, and explains why the league needs coaches like him. Plus, the Michigan Wolverines are having a great start, but are troubles surrounding Jim Harbaugh putting a damper on their season? Klatt also rolls out his top college football teams, and talks the upcoming match between Oklahoma and Texas.

[@jakebushey5333]

Why would anyone question Deoin for losing to Oregon and USC in his first year? 7-5 or better would be a good year for Colorado .

[@NothingToPointOut24]

Because the hype after the first 3 games was unwarranted. The TCU win was big but they werent the same team they were last season. Nebraska should never be considered a tough opponent but for some reason every year they are. And then they had trouble beating CSU. If their schedule was reversed and they lost their first two then won three in a row, no one would really be saying anything great about them right now. Agreed that anything above .500 would be a success. But there's a big difference between slight success and people putting Deion in the coaching Hall of Fame which is what people were wrongly doing when the Buffs were 3-0.

[@EulogyfortheAngels]

@@NothingToPointOut24 once Colorado was 3-0, I remember seeing Instagram posts legitimately asking if 2023 Colorado could beat 2019 LSU. People lost their minds. The sport was just flooded with new, loud casual fans.

@@TheBrotherHoodSports I dont care about Deion, Colorado or really college football in general. So it should probably say something where even me hears too much about a certain college football team when I dont even search it out. Its overhype. And there is a big difference in hype and overhype. Deion overhyped this team. And the first time all of the countries eyes were on them against Oregon, they got smacked. Maybe his brash flashy attitude will draw some eyes to Colorado games that otherwise wouldn't have watched, but its also going to make people see how overmatched they are when going against the better teams in the country.

Saban had a much better team. So yea…Sabans really not that great a coach. Just a top notch recruiter. Saban wasn’t beating TCU or competing with USC with THIS line Colorado has. He needs 5 high draft picks on the line to be relevant.

[@pacpacU]

Joel Klatt loves talking about the Pac-12, he's mentioned over and over again they are the deepest conference in football, and is hyping up their strength of schedule over the SEC and Big 10. But do we really know that for sure? Yes, they can have many explosive offenses and many of the top QB's in the country. But can the PAC-12 play defense? We saw how USC lost to Utah late last year and their defense has not improved much. Then Utah gets beat by Penn State in the Rose Bowl. USC will have a major drop off once Caleb Williams goes pro. The PAC-12 impressed early this year, but Washington was exposed by Arizona last week and Oregon nearly lost to a weak Texas Tech team earlier this season, and still remember last year that Georgia beat Oregon 49-3 (Georgia may not be the same). I do however agree with Joel that a 1 loss Pac-12 team should get a playoff spot, but not necessarily #1 team in the country.

[@lancesilvis4085]

QB’s are overrated in college football.

[@P51DFreak25]

And the SEC can’t beat anyone out of their own conference besides bottom feeders like Cal. When they played solid teams, they got crushed. The PAC12 is incredible this year. The top 10 this year is spot on. Georgia, FSU, Texas, ND, 3 Big Ten, and 3 PAC12 teams. Funny enough is he is constantly being accused of showing Big Ten favoritism when he’s generally pretty spot on

[@pacpacU]

​@P51DFreak25 well said. Joel is very high on the Mich, OSU and PSU and I agree mostly with his top 10. He just spends the majority of his podcast talking about the PAC-12. I get it, he's super excited with Colorado, I get he was their former QB and it's the biggest story seeing Deon Sanders bring back the program. However, its a little over the top. There are a lot of top 10 teams who have been discussed much less than Colorado. His analysis is top notch but a little more balance would be great. It's also unfortunately possible that if all the PAC-12 teams beat each other up, we might not see how they stack up in the playoffs.

[@P51DFreak25]

Frankly, Warde Manuel should be fired at Michigan. For some reason his relationship just seems sour with Harbaugh despite the fact that Harbaugh has single-handedly made that program great after nearly 2 decades since Lloyd Carr left. If there’s any chance that Harbaugh stays with a different Athletic Director then Warde Manuel HAS to go. I know at Michigan there’s a lot of thought amongst the higher ups that the institution is bigger than College Football and it’s bigger than one team… but that’s no longer the case at any school that plays D1 football aside from maybe Harvard or Duke (although Duke’s team is starting to develop, too.) The football team is the biggest revenue generator at most schools now and you can’t afford to throw away millions of dollars because you couldn’t get along with one of the most successful coaches in your schools history, even a school who has a history that includes a Schembechler and Carr and Yost and many greats.
