The Joel Klatt Show: A College Football Podcast
CFP Rankings Reaction: Is Notre Dame being protected? Do USC, Michigan & Texas have a path?
19 Nov 2025
FOX Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reacts to the latest set of College Football Playoff Rankings. He begins by discussing the Notre Dame-Miami conundrum as the Irish come in at #9 while the team that beat them in Week 1, Miami, sits at #13. He explains how the Committee is protecting themselves from a difficult conversation with those two teams with their rankings. Klatt then looks at the paths for 3 blue bloods: #15 USC, #17 Texas & #18 Michigan and explains how viable each path is should they win their final games. How high would USC jump with a win at Oregon this weekend? Would a win over A&M be enough to launch Texas back into the Playoff picture and would a 5th straight win over #1 Ohio State send the Wolverines into the CFP? 0:00-2:02 Intro2:03-5:47 Klatt’s reaction to November 18th rankings5:48-11:31 What does the gap between Notre Dame and Miami mean for the Hurricanes’ at large chances?11:32-22:01 What are the CFP paths for USC, Texas and Michigan?22:02-24:31 Overall takeaways from CFP rankings Use my code for 10% off your next SeatGeek order*: https://seatgeek.onelink.me/RrnK/KLATT10Sponsored by SeatGeek. *Restrictions apply.
