No link-->Per College Sports Playbook radio on XM MSST has outperformed preseason expectations the most. Followed by Florida, which kinda surprised me but then when I really thought it through it made sense because UGA was one of the most overhyped teams.
LSu was ahead of UGa as the most overhyped team. This is based off of preseason ranking and final rankings. Simple math, preseason rank of 10, end up ranked 15 then you get +5 points, if you ended at 5 then you get -5 points, teams with most points are overhyped, teams with the least points are underhyped.
What's y'all's thoughts on overhyped or underhyped teams?
I see that MSST is going to be underhyped again this year. They have a tough schedule with road games at Au and UGA back to back , after they host LSU. Wins vs Ole Miss, UK and LSU at home. Loss to Bama at home, Au and UGa on the road and need to win one these to get to .500 in sec play ,@Ark and @TAMU should be able to win their OOC games and finish 8-4. Would be a very good season for them.

Don't care about hype. Care about on the field.

Well, that's what the threads about, on the field results and which teams seem to not live up to expectations and those that exceed.

2013 Missouri was unranked and picked to finish 6th in the SEC East and finished with 12 wins and ranked 5th in the country.

then don't hype up LSU and admit a 7-5 season is on its way.

In 2014 Mississippi State went from unranked to #1 in the country in 6 weeks. That set Record for fastest ascension to #1 ever.

It's easily LSU. Ever since 21-0, they expected to win every game except Alabama, and half of them expected to beat Alabama. That's 15.5 extra losses over the past 5 seasons.

And finished 11th in the country.
