Taking a 3-9 (0-8) team that's unranked and picked near the bottom of the division to 13 seconds from a National Championship, the single greatest one year turnaround in NCAA history... With a DB at QB... Probably the most overachieving season ever.

Yeah that was a magical year for Auburn. The first coach I thought about when I saw this thread was Gus. First coach I thought of for underachieving was Les lol.

Average recruiting class ranking of that team was something like seventh. Chizik underachieved. That's why he got fired.

Yet his only loss prior to the NC game was to the proverbial underachiever. Go figure.
