Is being delusional a staple of SEC fans?

I can't decide which fans are more delusional.

On an overall level, I'd say:
1. Tennessee
2. LSU
3. A&M
4. Ole Miss
5. Florida
Prior to last season, I would have had Auburn and Georgia in the top 5

An ole miss fan I know is good dude, but as delusional as ever when it comes to ole miss. I am a Florida fan and don't think we are top 10 or Atlanta bound, I hope though.

Umm have you seen some of your fellow UF fans' threads the past few weeks?

First year coach takes a bad team and runs all the way to the SECCG with them. Where've we heard that one before?
I think UF's '16 goes about aswell as Auburn's '14 did. Except I think UF doesn't slide beyond it like Auburn did.
Seems from posts on the board that UF fans expect another 10 win season and I'm not sure those wins are there this year. Tough road games

Also a very large portion of the Vol hype train is media driven. There are a few ridiculous homers here and there (several on this board) but most of the hype that everyone is hearing is indeed from the media. Yet all I ever hear is that it's all because of UT's delusional fanbase. Again, I'm not denying that there is delusion, but it's overstated.
I guarantee at least 9 out of 10 Tennessee fans don't honestly think UT makes the playoffs this year. Check the annual predictions thread last year, and you'll find that the amount of UT fans predicting any better than a 8-4 or 9-3 season last year was actually quite small. Maybe our delusional fans are louder than those of other teams, thereby skewing the perception somewhat.

I've always said Ole Miss fans are the most delusional. Even when they weren't remotely relevant for 40 years, their fans would act like arrogant pricks every time I visited Oxford.
Honestly not sure who would be 2nd. Ole Miss is so far out front in the delusional department, no one else is close.

Delusion often sets in.

Easily A&M. If you haven't lived in College Station you have no idea.

Past 5 years or so it's been LSU and it's not very close. It's hard to blame them with the talent, recruiting, and coaching stability. But the great seasons just aren't there anymore.

What are the specifics of the delusion by the Ole Miss dude? Asking for a friend.

Amen. It's not delusional if you can back it up. If anything Bama fans are humble given their level of success.
