It not bc he just picked USC to beat LSU 38-35 but his analysis is just so freaking one sided towards USC and little credit to LSU.

Works for Fox.....trying to promote their product. Don't take the bait, you'll live a much more peaceful life.

He's just an unsubtle homer when it comes to B10 & PAC. He can never be impartial. Also, he just seems like a tool in general.

He's a west coast USC fan, as is Cowherd. This shouldn't be a surprise. It's like Peter Burns saying that LSU is going to beat the shite out of USC.

Imagine if everyone always picked LSU to beat everyone. Who would you guys be upset with?

This board probably said that about the last four years for anyone that picked the other team in the opening game.

Just let the Talking Heads do their talking head thing. Because what if he’s right and we end up losing this week?

He’s gonna look smart and we’re gonna look like a bunch of complaining bitches because we look at the Media all the time.

His arrogance makes it hard to listen to his games. He was a below average college QB that acts like he was a superstar. Herbstreit and the ESPN/ABC crew run circles around the fox crew.

Well regardless of who picks against us, we need to PROVE we can win these big time opening matchups.

Klatt is the biggest Big 10 Homer in existence.

He also works for Fox.

He has always been a big promoter of Michigan/Ohio State's conference.

I don't see LSU losing this one but I understand how others could pick against them (new oc, new dc, replacing JD and both WR, d was terrible last year, etc).

Also ever since Kelly left ND the media doesn't give him as much credit.

Funny how that works.

Yeah, doesn anyone not see this as a 50/50 type game on paper?

And I could see a scenario that unfolds where LSU gets beat handily and vice versa. Everything is on the table IMO.

A. Ignore all media pundits.

B. Replace "B10 & PAC" with "LSU" and you've described most of this board.

Agreed. He said LSU replacing Daniels was a major problem, while USC replacing Williams was no big deal and didn't adequately explain how this was possible.

Literally every single point he made is reasonable. There are points to be made for both teams winning this game. There is evidence out there that a Lincoln Riley led offense will score no matter who is at QB.

That being said, we will possess the ball and limit their possessions. Their defense will wear down, and we will win by 10.
