Joel Klatt ranks Oregon Ducks as No. 1 college football team

Joel Klatt, Fox college football analyst, has placed the Oregon Ducks as the No. 1 team in his preseason rankings. Klatt asserts that Oregon’s roster strength makes them stand out among the competition, with no significant questions surrounding the team. Despite past losses in critical games, including defeats to Ohio State and Indiana, Klatt believes that Oregon has the talent needed to contend for the national championship. He rates Ohio State as No. 3, Indiana as No. 5, and includes Michigan, USC, Washington, and Iowa in the Top 25 as well. The Ducks will face several of these teams during the upcoming season.
