Fox Sports' lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt is joined by Colin Cowherd to discuss this upcoming season. The two dive into why they are so excited for this year and react to the AP Preseason Top 25 Rankings. Colin gives his predictions for the big Ohio State-Texas and Michigan-Oklahoma early-season matchups and what he expects from those teams this season. Klatt and Cowherd break down their expectations for USC and whether the Trojans will take the next step and reach the College Football Playoff. They also look at the ongoing rivalry between the Big Ten and the SEC and Cowherd reveals why it's not the Alabama and Georgia's of the SEC that have the best shot at competing with the Big Ten's resources in this new NIL era.

The SEC said pro athletes should not return to college. Same night a Louisiana judge put one on LSU's roster. Lane Kiffin said no, then said they play for you or someone else. College sports are in ruins. That chaos is why I will not watch Ball State play Ohio State. I played at Ball State in the late 1980s and became the biggest Cardinals fan ever. The 2008 team stayed long enough to scare Michigan. The portal wrecked mid majors. I will not watch Columbus. ➢ Show Outline 00:00 - College Sports in Ruins 00:54 - The Chaos in College Sports 03:26 - Impact on Mid-Major Schools 10:52 - The Transfer Rule Debate 16:12 - Lane Kiffin and the Corrupt System 21:57 - The Mercenary Nature of College Sports 30:24 - Deshaun Watson's Apology 36:47 - Skip Bayless on Deion Sanders 45:54 - San Diego Padres New Owner 51:16 - NFL Ownership and Impunity ➢ Follow Our GUESTS https://x.com/SteveKim323 https://x.com/TJMoe28 ➢ Subscribe to Jason's other channel https://www.youtube.com/JasonWhitlock?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.youtube.com/@JasonWhitlockHarmony?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.youtube.com/@JasonWhitlockBYOG?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.youtube.com/@JasonWhitlockClips?sub_confirmation=1 ➢ Connect with Jason on Social Media: https://x.com/JasonWhitlock https://www.instagram.com/realjasonwhitlock/ https://www.facebook.com/jasonwhitlock ➢ Send Jason an Email FearlessBlazeShow@gmail.com ➢ Support The Blaze Visit https://TheBlaze.com.
