Summary

FOX Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reacts to Week 2 of the College Football season. He breaks down what he saw as Oklahoma beat Michigan including whether the Wolverines have an identity crisis and if there should be concerns about Bryce Underwood. He explains why he loved what he saw from John Mateer and his OC Ben Arbuckle but also considers whether Oklahoma’s blueprint for victory is sustainable for the rest of the season. Klatt then revels in the scene at the CyHawk game this weekend as Iowa State continues to be one of the best stories in the sport. He considers what Florida’s loss to South Florida does to Billy Napier’s job security and why things could turn worse very soon. Klatt then looks at teams like Clemson, Georgia, Penn State and LSU who all struggled through their wins vs lesser opponents in Week 2 and discusses whether there’s cause for concern for the future. 0:00-2:26 Intro2:27-22:09 Oklahoma beats Michigan22:10-32:25 Iowa State wins Cy-Hawk32:26-36:18 USF takes down Florida in the swamp36:19-50:24 How concerned should Clemson, Georgia, LSU & Penn State fans be?
