Overrated?

I've been on a bunch of other boards (rival boards, go figure) and the predominant view is that Alabama is vastly overrated. They discredit Virginia Tech, Arkansas, and Ole Miss.
Just wondering what you all thought?
In your opinion, are we overrated or are we a legit National Title contender?

Are these SEC or non-SEC team boards?

....Will people quit making posts like this 
. It's obvious you are just craving attention. We are a good football team. We don't know quite how good yet but we will eventually find out.

Nah dude, not craving attention, really just wondering.

I think it's pretty obvious at this point that we are a legit title contender. I think we are a legit top 3 team but anyone can beat anyone on any given week.

I'm not on those boards, but IMO you're full of shite and fishing for compliments.
Alabama, right now, is the most complete team in the country. I'm surprised they haven't surpassed UF for the top spot, and I'm surprised it took them this long to pass UT.
That's not to say you won't falter, but I doubt many people are saying that Alabama isn't good.
Now, I would agree that VT is overrated, and Ole Miss came into the season riding a shitload of hype from last year. However, even if you assume that these 3 teams are not as good as their rankings, Bama still has a more impressive body of work than most teams out there.
What's even more important, is that no game has been close.

Unfortunately I think the Bammers are legit.

Hate to say it but Bama seems to be the total package.

Bama is certainly a top 2 program right now. Bama would beat Texas and Southern Cal.

tOSU, ND and USC are the most overrated in country year in and year out

I mean hell LSU could be a way better team by Nov 7th. We just don't know quite how good we are yet.

You know the Head Ball Coach is sitting in Columbia just creaming over the thought of slipping one past UA. USCe has a legit defense, and I hate like hell that they are the homecoming opponent.

We know how good Alabama is. I take the jabs as compliments really. Fans and "experts" alike are looking for any weakness they can find. Its kind of like the occasional "Alabama sucks" comments I got from Ole Miss fans after the game, in The Grove, yesterday. I just smiled and walked on.

We aren't overrated. The only weak point on the team is that pass protection can be shaky at times. VT is legit. Arky will score a lot of points on almost everyone they play this year. I don't think anyone honestly believes we aren't a very good team.

Alabama is the national title front runner as of right now.

Of course.
But year in and year out, the media is caught pulling a Larry Craig on them.
