The Toughest Places to Play in CFB & more Mailbag Questions with Special Guest Sara Klatt!
• The Toughest Places to... - Sport
What do you think the toughest places to play in CFB are?
Can’t help but wonder if Utah is in the top ten.
Camp Randall when they’re good
LSU, UF, UGA, uSC
As a PSU alumni, those white out games are no joke. The Swamp in prior years would’ve definitely been a place to consider but the down fall of the programs makes them outside of the top 10 imo.
I thought FSU would be on your list.
As a fellow stable and unromantic man, this is one of my favorite mailbags 😂
joel klatt used his qb privilege with sara clearly lmao
Everyone is going to comment on Mrs. Klatt's appearance on the show and rightly so. She was great. However, Joe's response to the father's question on his son in high school may be the best advice I've ever heard on a platform like this. Slow clap!!!
Joel staring at the camera after Sara saying “you were getting killed in the big 12 championship game” 😂
😂😂
Had that Chris Benoit theme song playing in his head
😂
" with the Buffs trailing by 67 points in the third quarter, the last thing Klatt must have expected was for Kelson to come blitzing in from his left, launching himself toward Klatt's head and hitting him in the chin with his helmet.
Klatt was knocked out. For a scary minute or so, he lied there, face down, not moving, in the end zone of Reliant Field in Houston. Eventually, he clambered to his feet and staggered off the field. While the rest of his team flew home after the 70-3 humiliation, Klatt stayed overnight in a local hospital for observation.
...'It seems like [the NCAA is] more concerned with what guys do after the play and after they score, which is completely irrelevant to safety, or anything like that,' Klatt said in reference to penalties for showboating or excessive celebration. 'But is a player who goes into the end zone and gets a little too excited, is that as important as someone who gets a head injury? I just think their priorities are a little out of whack.'
Klatt insists he will not play Dec. 27 against Clemson if he's not completely ready. He concedes he desperately wants to play and desperately does not want the huge hit to stand as his final memory on a college field. But he insists he and his wife won't make any decision to play without clearance from the doctors.
...Whether he's on the field or not, Klatt refuses to go quietly.
'The NCAA is a terribly run organization and the way that they exploit college athletes, football and basketball, across the board, I think, is sad,' he said. 'It's something I'll hold a bit of a grudge about for a long time.'"
This is an episode that just makes you smile. Thanks for coming on Mrs Klatt! You should get into broadcasting too! And Joel, I loved the advice to the father and finding your identity in Christ.
Amen to everything you said.🙏
Stable is a great compliment, even if it doesn't sound like it 😂😂😂. It means she feels safe, secure, and supported by you. I proposed to my wife at the end of a dirt driveway in front of some llamas. Just a ring and no fancy prep. It went great. She did suspect something because as we were walking I had a stupid grin. Anyway- if she wants to marry you and is expecting a proposal, and you want to marry her, propose now. Waiting when you have indicated to her you want to get married and she agrees will just create anxiety. Just find a place of significant value to you both and propose.
Great segment with Mrs Klatt. Hope to see her again someday. I would love to hear more about her Christian journey and how you guys raise your kids with the Lord.
Joel, my son is a freshman at Colorado Christian University. He played football for 10 years through his Sr year in high school. He played various positions over the years but ended up specializing in the Long Snapper position as he was very good and helped his high school team to win some huge games with final second field goals. Very exciting. We never told him that it would end and we always encouraged him to do what it was that he wanted to do. In the end, he was burnt out on football and therefore didn’t really pursue it for college even though some schools showed interest in his abilities. In fact, Colorado Christian University doesn’t even have a football team. But, his helmet now put away, he skied 50 or 60 times over this winter. This is his new athletic love.
Now, dad (me) on the other hand really misses those football days and watching him play. It was awesome. But now I can fill that need with the excitement of traveling to Colorado from Nashville and skiing with him. Maybe someday my son will have his own son who will play football.
By the way, my wife and I really love CCU. It’s a great university and a wonderful place for our son to get an education.
Didn’t think it was possible to like Joel Klatt anymore than I already did. Bro crush confirmed. Then his wife came on… now I love her and him even more .. that was amazing! Yall are incredible
This show was sooo much more than just about football! It was about life. Identity is soooo crucial. And we were designed to have our identity in Christ! Thank you for this episode Joel.
Sara's lack of football knowledge proves Joel has healthy work-life balance. Very stable!
Sarah has NO idea about the football question, that was BEAUTIFUL....Joel how blessed you are my man!! What a great episode!
Awesome content Joel! Much Love from Norman
Gary Klatt was my favorite teacher at Pomona High!
Joel, you married up big-time. Sara, you are a good sport to guest star on the show. I really enjoyed it!
Thank you Joel for your perspective and wisdom. Also thank you for you and Sara sharing your faith and identity in Christ. Keep up the great work!
Joel, thank you for not being afraid to talk about your love for Jesus Christ and how He helped guide you in life. Your wife is absolutely gorgeous! ❤ You are a very blessed man and I really enjoy watching your shows.
I love the way Joel talks about faith, family and football. His passion for, and devotion to, all three is evident. ❤
God bless you, Joel. You too, Sarah.
It’s nice that your kids can watch this one day and smile
All of last year people said “Pac 12 is soft, wait til Oregon plays in the big 10”. Middle of this year they will say “Big 10 is soft, wait til they play an SEC team”. After the playoffs they will say “but that SEC team was mid, wait til they play an NFL team”.
Nah. Pac 12 teams are soft. Oregon got lucky with Lanning. They're the only new Big Ten team that will be able to hang in the trenches and not fall apart by season's end.
Pac 12 teams are soft, I’ve never liked the conference, but I’m glad you understand that a conference doesn’t define a team. Put Georgia in the Pac 12, they still the best team in football.
This is the greatest show you have ever done Mr. Klatt
Such good advice to find your identity outside of what you do and to focus on who you are (in Christ).
Joel Klatt, the Man American Needs!
This was cool to see a different side of Joel, he changed up as soon as she sat down lol and not in a bad way just interesting to see the human side. First time watching a full episode and looking forward to more
Great show I would love your wife to be on your show more often ! She makes it fun !! 😀 my wife not a football fan loved this show !
many smiles at this one!!
Just love this episode! Your wife is awesome 😎
The best show in the history of great Joel Klatt shows!
Sara is great! You’re a lucky man Mr. Klatt
Dropping dimes!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@joelklattshow, out here preaching!!! Joel, I love seeing how your gift is making room for you. Be encouraged and sharing that wisdom my brother, God still has greater for you. I hope a devotional/book is in the works (sports related preferably)
Happy Belated Mothers Day Mrs Klatt. Your husband is a godsend to college football so thanks for sharing with us fans.
Whiteout is the second most special game experience I've been to, only behind Army Navy.
Adam’s question is such a good question. My Dad said the same thing your dad said, Joel (expect I played soccer). But he also convinced me that I could go be great in something else. Soccer (and playing any sport) is amazing and a wonderful thing to have, but at some point you have to transition some of the passion to something else. Honesty in parent to kid relationships is of the utmost importance. As you said tho, there is some nuance there. Not everything is black and white
Very nice! Joel, you're my favorite CFB obvserver: smart, wise, entertaining and your opinions just resonate. I wouldn't have thought you'd have a better half, but Sara is just that. I thought her advice to the last guy with a Q was perfect; it took me back to age 21 when I had no business proposing to Liz....but I loved her and wanted to get married asap. Fortunately she agreed, and here we are 45 years later. Maybe I'm just stable. In any event, Sara is delightful, way to go Joel!
Good advice Joel on parenting more parents should follow it.Keep up the good work.
I always knew joel had himself a gem of a wife, and finally, my assumptions have come to fruition. Love your family joel (and sara) best mailbag yet.
Joel, I thought you had started with Fox; I was not aware of your earlier days as broadcaster. Good to see you successful at it.
love you joel. you got me into cfb!
thx for toughing it out at the taco bell and low rent pod. you are my favorite analyst and sugar coat nada. best in the biz. you and Gus are crushing it!!
GO BLUE
This was great Klatts
3rd and 4 we’re faking the handoff to Henry and hitting the TE on a quick out.
This is too funny congratulations to you both 💪🏾🙏🏾
For hardest places to play Auburn would have to be there but I would see why u would leave them out cause they have not been go in a few years
Wow. Sara is so beautiful and smart! Klatt is blessed. What a wonderful family
Michigan alumn here. I agree with your B1G rankings.
I think they're accurate for the B1G, but idk how you leave Neyland Stadium out of the national top 5.
I’ll tell you sneaky place that’s good is Texas A&M Kyle field LSU Tiger Stadium, Florida State, and Alabama
17:09 smiling through the pain 😂
Sad to see Joel will never be able to have another guest on his podcast. They will all be compared to the first 😂
Big fan man
Lol love it she has know idea about football! Opposites attract! So true. I bet she loves those football paycheck!!! 😂 great episode
Joel is laughing because he knows he will be just like his father 😂😂❤️
Joel is the Steve burns from blues clues of college football and Im not mad at all. ❤
I love this idea with your wife speaking today!❤❤❤ it was great to hear from her about her experiences.
No Iowa is wild mab
Joel out kicked his coverage! Good job Joel!
💯
This was an excellent mailing. I fully appreciate your answers to identity. I also identify as a follower of Jesus Christ. For this who haven't accepted Him, it may be difficult to appreciate the freedom that comes with acceptance of Jesus. It changes perspective on what is most important in life and after it. I hope your listeners who haven't taken the opportunity to get to know Him will after hearing this program. It was an outstanding non threatening witness opportunity. Thank you and may God continue to bless your life.
Wow Joel! I did not see this side of you from your football calls. Great stuff! I really like the athlete part and walking away from it. You showed your wisdom there. I also liked how your wife helped you see the other world away from football. I can see that you are a good couple and have mutual respect and fun together. It is nice to really see two people happily married!
a 7-2 or 6-3 late October Iowa team at Iowa is a nightmarish hellish environment to play at!
1 is clearly Georgia and I’m a buckeye fan
A warm cup of coffee and hand-picked flowers go a long way with the wife. You give us so much good info; might as well return the favor. I got you big bro.
Georgia is top 5. they’ve broken decibel records, they hold 90k, the fans are relentless, georgia hasn’t lost a home game in 5 years and since Kirby has been a head coach you can count on one hand the amount of time Georgia lost at home and they play SEC ball unlike Oregon and Clemson
Preach joel preach
Stable
you keep your ball card for havin lsu at 1, just had to check
Sara: Just put me in the game coach, I'm clutch.
Joel “Stable” Klatt
Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers. GO DUCKS 🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆
FWIW, Urban Meyer has coached at both Penn State and LSU for night games, and I remember him saying Penn State was the toughest place he's been to at night.
My guess is urban was coaching in columbus at the time. urban had a very small window of coaching a game in tiger stadium. Three games to be exact. First was a day game in '05. Second was a NIGHT game in '07. That's the night LSU was 5 for 5 on FOURTH down conversions. It was truly a NIGHT to remember. The third game in '09 not sure of kickoff. It was the ONLY game urban won in tiger stadium.
His boy Tebow said LSUs tiger stadium was the hardest place to play in as a visitor. He still couldn't talk right the thursday after the game.
JOEL!!!!!!! Throwin out the gospel of our lord and savior. YEAHHH!!!!!!!!
That just got me so pumped up
i don't blame ya for marrying a smile like hers even with the lack of Ball knowledge! love how she said yall were getting killed in the b12 title game and she prayed for it to end. lmao
As an Ohio State fan... Penn State is near the top
Sara is tremendous.
You and Sara are so cute!
Love your show ❤️❤️
Camp Randall is a bear to play at when Wisconsin is good. Wisconsin can beat anybody at home when they're good.
I root for the QB too!
Georgia has lost one (1) game at home in 7 years (43-1, vs ranked teams 13-0, against top 10 ranked teams 6-0)
Klatt is dam good. Who do you think the Denver Broncos should trade for.
Being an Oregon Alum(‘67) and a total DUCK fan Autzen Sadium is an awesome venue. Especially at the start of 3rd quarter when the loud speakers place “SHOUT” and the crowd goes nuts. You’re got to be there to experience it.
GO DUCKS 🦆🦆🦆🦆
Alabama is the tuffest place to play why we always win at home and we always win at lsu cuz that's easy.
Roll tide!
Joel how'd you get Sarah you lucky dog.
Well, he was a college quarterback 😂
@@hjluke4807 lol
I would have to say Alabama
The Big House, end of story
Tennessee not in the top 5 is insane
The big house, Washington, Penn State, Tennessee
Florida too
Joel Klatt takes no L’s
Under rated place to play is Cincinnati. Loudest small stadium
How is Kyle field not on this list
AUBURN?!?!?!
Michigan hasn’t lost at home since 2020
:)
@4:50 Bama is not that tough of a place to play. As an Lsu fan, the difference is Bama fans expect the best they dont have fear. Ive seen Auburn and Florida get WAY louder and more chaotic. One thing i will give the Bama fans / staidum for is their Band. They havent taken away seats from them whereas several SEC teams including Lsu have shrunk the band at times. The million dollar band brings firepower every time
Kyle Field is 3x louder than Bama. The crowd was so loud that Alabama had multiple false start penalties at the start of the game. I’d take Kyle Field, Florida, and LSU before Bama
@@nolandavis9040 Saban: “When we went on silent, the guard taps the center. And as soon as the guard tapped the center, they’d stem and move the front- which is not illegal. It was perfectly a good thing for them to do on their part. And we had numerous times where guys flinched. Because, when you go on silent, there is no snap count... we obviously need to practice it more so our players don’t get spooked by a moving defense because everybody’s got to sort of go on the ball.”
Alabama had two false starts in Tuscaloosa last year vs Texas.
Man… Joel… have you never been to Kinnick? Leaving them out of the top 5 is a bold statement… I am just going to assume you have never been there for a big game.. ask Penn State about playing at Kinnick
Joel had a really really good season last year. But his off season takes have been pretty bad. I hope he proves me wrong. I agreed with a lot of his takes last year. And most were correct except for whatever reason he keeps favoring osu. But this off season I’m not really agreeing with most his takes. It’s like he’s making guesses to see if he can stand alone.
Penn State the toughest?!?! Yea right 🤣🤣🤣
Penn St #1 & #2 overall but they NEVER can beat Ohio St or Mich, so its not that great of a home field advantage #overrated
Are you serious? Don't let your west coast fanhood blind you from reality. Washington tougher than Wisconsin? They have one good year and they are a tough place to play? Ask yourself this:. How many people would rather play in Madison Wisconsin than playing the huskies over the last 2 decades? Maybe 20percent. MAYBE....
UW is only a good atmosphere maybe two games a year. Most overrated fan base in major college football.
