Joel Klatt releases new college football rankings following crazy Saturday
Week 10 of the college football season saw three teams in the top six of the College Football Playoff rankings fall while in total, nine teams in the top 25 were defeated. What does it mean for the next batch of rankings?
Changes are certainly coming but just how extreme they end up remains to be seen. Fox Sports lead college football analyst Joel Klatt released his latest rankings on Saturday night after most of the action had concluded. Normally Klatt puts out his top 10, but Saturday he instead gave out his top seven.
Here is how teams fell into Klatt’s latest rankings.
