A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Joel Klatt holds no punches as he dissects college football teams. Very cerebral and very insightful. Worth listening to.

rockoroller · Sep 2026

Explains football in ways that non-fanatics can understand and appreciate. Loves the game and loves his job. And unlike 99% of pundits and sports talkers, he admits when he blew it in predictions, and even makes light of it! Dude needs to teach a class to sports journalists on humility and competence.

DGbuckeyefan · Dec 2025

Joel is such a huge fan of college football and that comes through episode after episode. His understanding of the game and passion for the sport makes listening to him each week a lot of fun. His clear fandom for Ohio State doesn’t hurt either

cfbnerd · Jan 2025

First off id like to say that I don’t always agree with everything that Joel says. But goodness imagine hating or giving the show a poor rating because you disagree on a DEBATABLE topic. Grow up and go listen to your favorite team’s bias radio show. Joel is a straight shooter. He is in the sport of college football full time watching film, breaking down games and speaking confidently and passionately about them. He is great for the sport and I recommend every sane fan of college football that wants unbiased coverage of college football a follow.

He clearly hasn’t scouted SMU and possibly not watched any tape at all. SMU lost to BYU by 3 points after changing QBs in the middle of the game and turning the ball over 2x inside the BYU 5 yard line. Anyone who watched the game knows that SMU dominated the game. Squeaked by in most of our other wins? SMU beat TCU by 24, beat a ranked Pitt team by 23, beat a ranked Louisville team on the road by a TD, beat Stanford on the road by 30. They squeaked by Duke because Kevin Jennings broke his hand in the game and couldn’t hold on to the ball. Do your homework if you are going to hold yourself out as a college football expert.
