See where Ohio State lands on Joel Klatt’s personal top ten after week one

There is no shortage of opinions when it comes to college football. Each week, FOX Sports college football analyst Joel Klatt gives us his personal top ten based on what he’s seen thus far in the season. After week one, Klatt seems to like Ohio State, but maybe not as much as we would have expected.

Klatt put the Buckeyes at a respectable No. 4 in his rankings. We watched the Buckeyes struggle somewhat with Minnesota on Thursday night but made the necessary second-half adjustments to pull away for a nice win.

Klatt has Alabama and Georgia in the top two spots which seems fair considering what they did on the field over the weekend. What is a mystery, however, is why Klatt would keep Oklahoma ahead of the Buckeyes. The Sooners faced a severely overmatched Tulane team and had to hold on to the very end with a five-point victory. I’m not sure what OU did to keep Klatt’s attention.

As always, opinions are just that and don’t carry much weight, but it is fun to hear what the so-called experts think. The good news is there is a long way to go in the college football season before any of those opinions count for anything. If the Buckeyes can take care of Oregon in convincing fashion, I imagine we’ll start to see a climb up those “opinion” rankings.
