How can a team that is ranked no. 1 in the preseason and then go wire to wire win the national championship not win the offseason championship WHEN THEY'RE RANKED NO. 1 IN THE PRESEASON? That makes literally zero sense, appears here you presented a subjective-arse-based question rather than use objective logic. Sad sad.

Because the OP is referring to Internet forums predictions and delusions from certain fan bases like tRant, Rivals, and whatever other college message boards there are. That is what he means by off season championship, not what ESPN or the general media is hyping. Tennessee and Auburn have won nearly all the SEC off-season championships as long as I've been on this board.

Reporters have had an abysmal record predicting the East. Basically, the past twenty years the only times they've gotten right was when there was a dominant team like Tebow's UF. IIRC, they had 5 accurate predictions in 20 years.

For those mentioning Bama... I write that off to being 'duh' because like when Tebow was at UF, Bama is simply dominate right now.

Preseason tRant mantra about Cam was "Brent Schaeffer 2.0" because "JuCo QBs NEVER pan out in the almighty SEC"
Then and now tRant spends the off-season downplaying what's poised to be a very good Auburn team with a very good 5* JuCo QB transfer. Some things never change.

So what was your name back in 2010?

I was known to you as "Daddy". But that's still the case.

Given the post you responded to I can only conclude that you desperately wanted to use that.

Bama may have won the 2012 offseason with the momentum after 1/9/12. 

Despite their offseason crashing in a ditch, Arkansas put in a good showing.

IDK but I can tell you who the worst offseason champion was.

2008 Georgia Bulldawgs!
