Description: College Football is just days away! FOX Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reacts to the news of quarterback battles being won around the country including Ohio State naming Julian Sayin their starting QB. He lays out what will be expected of Sayin when the Buckeyes take on Arch Manning and #1 Texas next week. He then makes his first game pick of the year by breaking down the Week Zero Top-25 matchup between #17 Kansas State and #22 Iowa State. Klatt discusses Michigan’s punishment from the NCAA following the sign-stealing saga from the National Championship season from 2023.  He also explains the latest CFP format idea coming from the Big Ten that could feature 24 or 28 teams and walks through why that is being considered and what needs to happen next for there to be any change to the current CFP structure.
