Summary

FOX Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt is joined by Chris “Bear” Fallica from Big Noon Kickoff and Bear Bets to go through a Draft of the teams they think have the best chance to win the National Championship this season. The two go back-and-forth as they debate who to select with their picks: Is Ohio State a no-brainer at the 1st pick? How long until the first SEC team comes off the board? How high should Indiana be picked? Does Notre Dame warrant spending a high selection on? Do teams like Oklahoma and Texas even get picked and where does Vanderbilt fit into all of this? The guys each pick 6 teams as they make 12 selections to win this year’s title. 0:00-1:44 Intro1:45-4:33 Chris “Bear” Fallica joins the show!4:34-5:43 Ohio State5:44-8:32 Indiana8:33-10:51 Oregon10:52-13:21 Alabama13:22-16:10 Georgia16:11-20:40 Notre Dame20:41-22:29 Texas A&M22:30-23:48 Miami23:49-26:06 Texas Tech26:07-28:51 Ole Miss28:52-33:13 Vanderbilt33:14-39:04 Texas39:05-41:17 Recap of picks Use my code for 10% off your next SeatGeek order*: https://seatgeek.onelink.me/RrnK/KLATT10Sponsored by SeatGeek. *Restrictions apply.
