    Um past coaches specifically hairball get a pass
    Jimmy laffing all the way to the bank and suffers no penalties but of course he knew nothing about any cheating!!
  • Mr. College football
    Best podcast ever
    More on Ohio state please
  • MT Woodpile
    Good Show Klatt!
    Methodical approach - no hot takes - insightful analysis It’s Klatt and Cosell for QB knowledge.
  • Markbeede1
    Shedeur Sanders?
    Thinking Shedeur Sanders should be the 1st pick in the draft. Good grief, man. Be better

    Best college football podcast
    Nobody compares and you own the college football podcast
  • kjp5129
    My go-to college football podcast
    Joel Klatt is one of my favorite analysts and he breaks down college football in a concise and clear manner. I’m excited for his YouTube content as well.
  • cfbnerd
    Best CFB analysis on the interwebs
    Joel is such a huge fan of college football and that comes through episode after episode. His understanding of the game and passion for the sport makes listening to him each week a lot of fun. His clear fandom for Ohio State doesn’t hurt either
  • MasonValley
    By far the best college football show
    Joel does an amazing job breaking down games players, etc. sometimes you have to deal with a little Colorado or Michigan bias love but other than that the show is one of the highlights of my week!
  • NativeTexican
    Fail
    The college game is circling the drain. You condoning spineless quitters is part of the problem. If it doesn’t matter then why even play the game at all.
  • J S F
    Great analysis
    Love the show. Great on the Xs and Os, sound well thought out takes. Has passion for the sport. He’s a Colorado homer but I get it. Life long fan, player and alumnus. No one’s perfect 🤣
  • jutsheosj
    This show Rocks
    First off id like to say that I don’t always agree with everything that Joel says. But goodness imagine hating or giving the show a poor rating because you disagree on a DEBATABLE topic. Grow up and go listen to your favorite team’s bias radio show. Joel is a straight shooter. He is in the sport of college football full time watching film, breaking down games and speaking confidently and passionately about them. He is great for the sport and I recommend every sane fan of college football that wants unbiased coverage of college football a follow.

    Joel Klatt = Best in the Business
    Love this show. Love the commentary. It’s the best. Keep up the good work!
  • Mcconn23
    Best ever takedown of Kiffin
    Klatt I'm a listener but always kinda considered you a pretty bland company man. Your takedown tweet of Kiffin was epic, that authenticity is what people want! Five stars bravo
  • bye bye birdie
    Doesn’t know ball.
    Unfortunately Joel has lost touch with reality. Good show but his blind allegiance to the committee is sad, you need to accept when mistakes have been made. Id recommend listening to more open minded shows such as Josh Pate.
  • VNAllStars
    Shooting From The Hip
    He clearly hasn’t scouted SMU and possibly not watched any tape at all. SMU lost to BYU by 3 points after changing QBs in the middle of the game and turning the ball over 2x inside the BYU 5 yard line. Anyone who watched the game knows that SMU dominated the game. Squeaked by in most of our other wins? SMU beat TCU by 24, beat a ranked Pitt team by 23, beat a ranked Louisville team on the road by a TD, beat Stanford on the road by 30. They squeaked by Duke because Kevin Jennings broke his hand in the game and couldn’t hold on to the ball. Do your homework if you are going to hold yourself out as a college football expert.
  • NoleFan1123
    Great CU Podcast
    If you love Deion and Colorado football this POD is for you! (His other CFB content is good too when it’s sprinkled in)
  • Avidly Listenering
    Favorite NCAA podcast
    This is a fantastic college football podcast, even if he does like Colorado ;) his analysis is clear and makes sense, but is also interesting to listen to. It’s not just facts and figures, it’s way more.
  • Surprised of SEC Bias
    Wrong on Conference Championship Valuation
    NFL gives bye or preferred ranking to division winners over teams with better record that didn’t win their division. CFP isn’t the only one doing this. Get your facts straight. Otherwise I really love this podcast.
  • thahn812
    GREAT SHOW!
    Rivalry week MI/OH was spot on and the insight on upcoming rankings was spot on. Thanks guys!
  • kensley_riddle
    Awesome!
    Always look forward to each show. Respect for you Joel!
  • Beat Navy 92
    The Army Team
    Ref. the 27Nov CFB Playoff ranking show, you should consider a 12-1 Army AAC Champion Tulane victor rather than Tulane or your beloved overrated Buffaloes. With a lone loss to the Irish, it would be HUGE TRAVESTY to leave out a 12-1 Conference Champion Service Academy, especially the heralded, historic Army Team!!!
  • Dallas0021
    Bias analysis
    Hopefully show runners read: Klatt discussed resumes and was flat wrong about Indiana’s margin or victory. The Fighting Irish have the best point differential in the FBS (+301) and have outscored their last nine opponents 399-92. That dominance was on display again on Saturday as Notre Dame handed No. 18 Army its first loss in a 49-14 result One would think with only 3 ranked vs ranked match ups the #6 vs #19 game would get a few seconds. Maybe a minute. Nope, hardly mentioned. He also used up a lot of oxygen talking about Colorado, who lost their 3rd game and was a Hail Mary away from their 4th.

    Great show
    Love the show, and the analysis.

    Joel can you ask Colin if he’s watched any other OSU game besides when they played Oregon?
  • Peng420
    Review
    I’m leaving a rating and review as Klatt requests numerous times during each episode. I disagree with literally everything he says and the fact that he exists and has a “platform” illustrates the pitfalls of capitalism. One star.
  • Broigi
    Balanced
    I love how Joel balances facts and his opinions. His options are understandable and he gives data and information to back up his opinions while also not trying to control what we think on the matter. I’d like to see Joel Colab with espn college game day podcast, it would rock
  • ATXbubs
    Best In the biz
    This is a great show. Joel is so knowledgeable, and him and Gus and Jenny are the best team in CFB. I usually listen on my phone, but I saw the behind the scenes of Joel and the crew on YouTube as they went to Madison. This was incredible insight and showed how much work goes into calling a game. Keep up the good work!
  • Travis from Denver
    Up to date analysis from a very knowledgeable guy
    Klatt does a great job with timely release of onpoint college football analysis. Good balance of comment on the big programs and humorous and thoughtful commentary throughout. I look forward to these episodes whenever they release
  • glimadoll
    I learn a lot from this podcast
    Thanks for the comprehensive coverage of the teams and their upcoming games- excellent!
  • CtCaneEJ
    Miami #2 in the ACC even tho their UNDEFEATED
    Dude your a straight clown…. Oh yeah that’s right Klatt the Clown has an nice ring to it… Miami only had to come back because that guy you think is the best player in the ACC only turned it over 4 times and has taken 6 sacks in the last two games. BEASON says hello btw
  • Mothball556
    7 Stars!!
    Huge Nebraska and general college football fan here. Joel gets into the X’s O’s a lot, his expert analysis is 2nd to none. But it doesn't stop there. I also love to hear him talk bout about our Christian faith (i'm Christian), his family and his life advice. Klatt and Pate for co-college football commissioner!!
  • Treyday6
    Great Content
    Joel does a great job, even if he wants to continue to talk about CU. Just messin, keep up the great work.
  • JMoneyshot
    Love the Show
    Joel does a great job breaking down games and informing the listeners. My only problem with the show is how biased he is towards The Big Ten and hatred for the SEC. Should also wear his Buckeyes hat while doing the show and announcing games.
  • DavidBana
    CFB Guru
    Klatt is by far the best analyst in CFB. Deep dives with the best points and angles and info
  • Music21-21
    Epic College Football!
    Joel has great insights and a ton of knowledge on the college game! You can tell he has passion for the sport and the content is worth your time.
  • Razorback Hogballer
    Klatt talks with us, not at us.
    College football is my favorite sport and I consider myself a fan of the macro and micro parts of it. Joel Klatt is the top analyst of college football because of the way he can explain the minutiae to us with clarity, emotionally, and intellectually, all in a timely manner without talking down to us or making feel like he is an officer and we are enlisted. He shows us that he is a fan of the game first, and talks with us, not at us. I wish the podcast happened everyday, but I understand Klatt’s schedule and why that’s not possible.
  • LPRoad
    Good stuff
    I’m more into NFL, but for college content I listen to Joel.
  • usually angry
    Lost his touch with the game and fans
    Not sure when it happened but you’ve lost your touch, Joel. Becoming an apologist for coaches that can’t get the job done and he fantasizes what programs are. Not worth the time anymore, used to be so much better. Stick to analytics and color commentary, serves you much better than the opinion pod
  • PicOrion
    Great, Honest, Unbiased Podcast
    The best in the business. 5-0 on your picks!! Congratulations. Look forward to listening to you the rest of the season.
  • First time reviewer01
    I generally really like the show until he talks about Michigan
    I get it, his livelihood is the game and nothing would destroy it quicker than the loss of the integrity of the sport. I assume that is why he struggles so much talking about Michigan cheating. I’m disappointed :) Joel can’t be more open, clear, and honest about what it is. He is better off not talking about it at all because it only makes me question his integrity when he does.
  • Aeeeeeeebbb
    Joel Klatt is the best. As is Gus Johnson
    Bring on Gus to the show!!
  • Matt 5237
    QBs aren’t smart
    It never occurred to me how dim Joel is until this apparent cheating Michigan did. He’s talking 90s offensives and probability. Did Michigan illegally steal signs (y/n)? Should institutional cheating be punished (y/n)? Welcome to Earth Joel.
  • Porterhouse0
    A+
    I dare you to find me a better college football analyst
  • Shamrocks99
    Very Good But Not Great
    Enjoyable and likable host who conveys a passion for college football. The in-season podcasts are extremely informative. Avoid the coaches interviews as they contain nothing but softball questions.
  • Russian Ruler
    Amazing
    Joel has one of the best sports podcasts I have seen. His interviews are very insightful and diverse. He has a great voice for podcasting! Love the heavy focus on the B10.

  • idCatholic

    Great Stuff Joel!
  • CozyM1996
    Goat Klatt Show
    One of the best CFB shows period bc Joel is a student of the game. He goes above the X’s & O’s in all aspects.
  • TexasBuckeye01
    Good insight
    Love Joel and his insight but lost a bit by defending Michigan last year. That will soon be proven to be a swing and a miss. Other than that - no complaints
  • Hawkis
    Good listen for college football news
    Joel great analyzing and call games
