WATCH: Joel Klatt predicts whether Oklahoma or Ohio State gets CFB Playoff’s final spot
Published:
It’s going to be the debate that occupies most of our time for the remainder of the week. Will Ohio State or Oklahoma get the fourth and final spot in the College Football Playoff?
On Saturday, both Oklahoma and Ohio State will play in conference championship games, hoping to add another impressive win to the resumé. And, if both win, we’ll have quite the debate on our hands.
Would a one-loss, Big XII champion get in? Or would a one-loss B1G champion get in? While the selection committee isn’t suppose to take sides, that room is probably hoping for one of those two teams to lose.
Everybody is weighing in on the Sooners-Buckeyes discussion, including FOX college football analyst Joel Klatt. And he has a prediction regarding which one team would get the nod.
Klatt says Oklahoma — which has a loss to Texas — would have the better resumé. Essentially, Klatt points to Ohio State’s 29-point loss to Purdue as the hindrance to its College Football Playoff hopes.
Below, Klatt provides his complete explanation.
What do you think? Do you agree with Klatt?
“This is going to be a wild debate between @OU_Football and @OhioStateFB.”
