How is Florida overrated? Most media outlets are predicting them to be somewhere between 3rd and 4th in the SEC east, between 7 and 9 wins at most. How is that overrated?
Clearly Overrated - Alabama/TAMU
Just about every major media outlet is picking them to win the SEC and they have very real short comings this year that are being overlooked because everyone is star gazing at their roster. On TAMU - they lose their best QB ever, their defense is terrible, and they are ranked? WTF?
Somewhat Overrated - South Carolina/Georgia
Most media outlets have them as either #1/#2 in the SEC and winning 10-11 games, depending on where you look. Both have very serious issues in the secondary, both are breaking in new starters at QB after losing some of the best QB's to ever play at either school. Please note, I said "somewhat."
Somewhat underrated - Auburn
Auburn returns probably the most complete team in the SEC, but some off the field issues and a tough schedule have people defaulting them to #2 in the SEC. I've only seen them picked as #1 in the west a few times.
Vastly underrated - Missouri
They lost a lot of production, but the fact that they are going from top 5 to unranked in a single off season, and a team like TAMU is actually ranked ahead of them, is just ridiculous.

I don't know if I would call Auburn underrated right now. We're right around 5-6 in all of the polls, and I think that is probably about right. Not to mention that with our schedule we could easily have a better team than last year and still drop 2-3 games in the regular season

Overrated - USCe
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Shaw is a HUGE loss. They are still one of the top 3 teams in the East but i don't believe they are the clear cut front runner like some believe.
Underrated - Mizzou
This is an obvious homer pick but i couldn't think of another SEC team that is underrated. Not predicting a repeat of last year, but likely better than most expect

Honorable mention - Auburn
Underrated ? AU is top 5, no one is underrating Aubrun.
Bama, I agree with you.

Right now Bama is over-rated and expectations are geared toward a NC or bust this year. We have a mediocre OL without quality depth right now and QB looks like it's gonna be a real issue for the first time since Nick got the job.

Overrated: USCe - Obvious reasons
Underrated: ATM - I don't think they'll win the west but everybody predicting them to fall on their faces will be disappointed.
