FOX college football analyst Joel Klatt poked some fun at himself Saturday for snubbing Lamar Jackson from his top five quarterbacks in college football before the season.

Prior to the season, Klatt listed his top five QBs in the sport. His top five included: Sam Darnold, J.T. Barrett, Mason Rudolph, Baker Mayfield and Trace McSorley.

Not included in the list was reigning Heisman Trophy winner, Lamar Jackson.

Jackson went 25/39 for 393 yards and three touchdowns, while rushing for 132 yards and three scores in the Cardinals’ 47-35 win over North Carolina Saturday.

Here’s what Klatt tweeted in response to the performance:

Who was that IDIOT that didn't have Lamar Jackson in his top 5 QBs to start the seas…………wait……umm…….this…is…awkward pic.twitter.com/Y2pSM30Mhs

This response makes you wonder whether Klatt even watched Jackson last year, because that’s all the QB did all last season to earn the Heisman in the first place.
