Joel Klatt Loses His Mind Over Where CFP Committee Ranked Alabama and Tennessee
Joel Klatt didn't hold back after seeing Alabama ranked ahead of Tennessee in the first CFP rankings despite losing to the Vols.
The first College Football Playoff (CFP) rankings have sparked significant debate, with Alabama's position being a major point of contention. The Crimson Tide, currently 6-2, were ranked fifth overall, ahead of Tennessee, who beat Alabama 26-10 in Knoxville on October 17. This ranking has drawn criticism, particularly from FOX Sports analyst Joel Klatt, who expressed disbelief at the eight-spot gap between the two teams.
Klatt questioned the committee's decision, highlighting that Texas, with better wins than Alabama, is ranked two spots ahead of Tennessee. He argued that the committee's decision seems arbitrary and illogical, especially considering the direct head-to-head result between Alabama and Tennessee.
