Any list that doesn't include 2012 Notre Dame , or any other year they were hyped , list is shite.

Dumb list. Any team with a title in the last decade shouldn't be included.

You missed the point. You guys were overrated because you had an average season even though you were "rated very high to start the year"



"Rated" by the AP poll. Preseason rankings are just guesswork and completely subjective. The just because the author says its objective doesn't make it so. But don't let actual stats ruin your argument.

it's not that ust georgia is overrated. they get their hopes up


tell us more about this. Because if you'll look at the annual preseason prediction thread none of us have predicted a national title any time lately. In fact our fanbase is typically pretty darn close to predicting how we actually finish.

Just another in a long line of things our rivals claim about us that isn't accurate in the least bit.

Fair enough. After reading the thread, LSU probably shouldn't be on this list. Good luck this year.

You don't understand what the word objective means apparently. This article, by definition, is objective. It's not an author offering his opinion; he is simply reporting who are the teams with the biggest negative difference in preseason and postseason polls over the last 10 years. He never pretends to be doing anything other than that. He's not arguing the polls themselves aren't subjective, he's not saying your team sucks, he's just presenting the objective facts.

You've made several mad posts now melting about lsu being on the list and completely misrepresented what the article says. Maybe calm down, and read it again? This was the relevant part explaining why lsu is on the list btw:
quote:

They are perennially perceived as a top program, as the last time they were unranked entering a year was in Saban’s debut season (2000). (Only once has LSU been ranked outside the top 14 over that span in preseason polls). Since the 2007 national championship, LSU has as many seasons where they finished unranked as in the top 12.

Makes perfect sense. They have been a consistently overrated program. Period. All objective data reflects this.
