Looking back on some preseason hot takes and adding one more as we head into the second half of the season.
During the preseason, “Until Saturday,” The Athletic ’s , took hot takes from fans and had co-hosts David Ubben and Ari Wasserman discuss how plausible or implausible they were. At midseason, we’re revisiting the takes from that podcast episode to see how they stack up with reality. Advertisement Take: will go 8-4. Sorry, Ari. Ari’s take: That’s crazy. David’s take: No, but I’m closer to that than Texas will make the Playoff, although I do think Texas will beat .
Yikes. We’re roughly halfway through the season, and Clemson has two losses. A large reason for those two losses has been an inconsistent offense, which ranks No. 45 nationally in scoring. Even though Klubnik still looks like he has the physical tools to be an player, he isn’t lighting it up under Riley. Klubink ranks No. 50 in total yards per game and has thrown only 11 touchdown passes. He’s not going to New York, and Clemson isn’t going to the CFP.
Want to hear some fun stats? While at Penn State, James Franklin is 3-15 against top-10 teams. He’s 1-12 against top-10 versions of Ohio State and Michigan. He’s also 0-9 against top-10 teams on the road. Penn State heads into this weekend for its first game of its two-game season. The Nittany Lions are undefeated, and the spread against Ohio State is 4.5 points. , we’ll have a clearer idea of whether this Nittany Lions team is built to compete at the highest level.
We’ll see officially Saturday, but this looks like a swing and a miss from our listener. Milton’s play has not allowed Tennessee to continue its dominance in the passing game without , and while Milton has spawned plenty of complaints, there hasn’t been any sign that Tennessee would make a switch, despite dropping from No. 2 nationally last year in yards per attempt to 92nd this year.
