Not a fan of Joel Klatt. Don't agree with him on this statement. But it was funny none the

less.

In talking about the SEC teams:

Said Alabama is too one dimensional to beat playoff teams every week like you have to do in the playoff now.

Said Texas A&M (literal word for word quote): "is like a drunk chasing a balloon near a cliff".

Again, I think A&M is legit despite the first half Saturday. So I don't agree. Still thought it was a funny quote.

Klatt is a fox guy, he likes to hype the Big 10. He is feeling a bit nervous.

Out of the 2 big ten teams that are in the playoffs one has played no one and probably is about South Carolina level (Indiana), and OSU is for real.

The others are meh and with the SEC looking strong May not get in. If they get 3 in it will be a miracle and Oregon is not that good.

Also Klat is buddies with Cowherd and Cowherd is now pushing USC for the playoffs . Those two are nervous that the SEC gets 5 in and their teams are limited to 2 or 3.

But you know what MSU would beat USCw and Oregon would have 5 or 6 losses with an SEC schedule…

I kind of had that feeling in the stands on Saturday.

I don't get too worked up over the rankings, and Klatt has A&M at 4, so it's not like he's completely dismissing A&M, but for him to drop A&M one after having to come back to beat South Carolina, yet not dock Indiana after a near death experience against a Penn State team with a backup QB and no head coach is rather logically inconsistent. I think that's his Big Ten bias showing, frankly. But, it will all work out in the wash.

Yes putting Indiana in the top 4 after last weeks exposure by Pedo St is not logical. Indiana is way overanked…. What is Indianas best win??

I agree with this. I'd add that Bama is also too damned inconsistent as well.

Indiana can at least hang their hat on beating 1 loss Oregon. The rest of their schedule is mostly bottom of the barrel B1G teams. Same with OSU.

People take shots at A&Ms schedule, but the bottom of the SEC is exponentially more talented than the bottom of the b10
