Does Oklahoma v Bama in 2013 not count? Could've sworn Oklahoma had a good passing offense the whole year not just against Bama.
Oklahoma's Passing Offense was ranked #92 in 2013. Trevor Knight basically came out of nowhere that game.

Nice to know. Thanks. Nevertheless, it was a Big12 QB torching an elite defense.

Auburn at #5 is just an easy target. With Stidham at QB, there is certainly potential at Auburn being a Top 5 team. But for that projection to actually happen depends on everything falling into place.
Stidham could still be successful and Auburn could finish #12 or #15 and FPI would have been off the mark.
So from that standpoint, I agree. Auburn at #5 is the easy guess at which team is most likely to be overrated.
With that said, I think Florida is the most likely to truly not be a very good team. But they play in the East, and I think Michigan might be the nation's most overrated team, so once again Florida may finish with a pretty decent record despite not being very good.

Or maybe this is the year the Gators take a step back. With both Michigan and Florida State on the nonconference slate, I think it will be difficult for this team to reach the FPI's eight projected wins.
If we can't get to 8 wins with our only road games being Kentucky, South Carolina and Missouri it is going to be a pretty ugly offseason for UF.
