Oregon In Trouble? UCLA Turning Heads? Klatt Names Alarming, Exciting CFB Teams
Week 2 of the college football season was nothing but thrilling.
Oregon and Oklahoma faced massive upsets, Texas claimed the No.
1 spot in the rankings and Bob Chesney and UCLA are continuing to prove their offseason hype in the regular season.
Notably, Mississippi State's Kamario Taylor defeated its first Big Ten opponent on the road for the first time since 1980.
But after two weeks, where do some teams sit in terms of their outlook on the rest of the year? On "The Joel Klatt Show," FOX Sports' Joel Klatt broke down teams that fall into three categories: Time to panic, stay calm and get excited.
Klatt's thoughts: "If not for those two defensive scores, that is a route.
A route! The film was alarming for Oregon.
On both sides of the ball.
I think it's time to panic.
It's not just the result, now they're dealing with some injury issues… Injuries are always going to happen, there's no doubt, but you don't want them to happen when you're trying to right the ship.
"I was on a deep dive in both last year's film from Oregon, and this year against Boise State, and what did I find? Oregon has run-pass tells in their offense, and this is a devastating deal… but the film was also alarming on the defensive side." Klatt's thoughts: "Oklahoma doesn't have an offensive line and they cannot run the football.
And in order to move the ball, John Mateer has to be Superman, or they've got to create explosive plays.
And they couldn't do either of those things against Michigan last week.
Can you really rely on splash explosive plays the entire season? I don't think you can, it's ultimately what their Achilles heel was a year ago." Klatt's thoughts: "Washington barely snuck out a win against Utah State, 16-14 last week.
