Overrated: #4 Baylor
Underrated: #26 Oklahoma State

On paper Baylor is pretty stout and a week ago anyone 5-9 would have been a better choice. I think their recent issues will be a distraction though.

I went homer with OKST but the sunshine pumping on our boards is almost making me nervous. We lost a DT but otherwise are clean from an injury standpoint. The defense is reportedly the best of the Gundy era and offensively we should be back to where we were a couple of years ago.

Plus the schedule helps. TCU, Baylor, and OU are at home. TCU has had a terrible camp, Baylor has otf issues to deal with and OU's qb race is a dumpster fire. We get Texas (another qb dumpster fire) and WVU on the road but with an ooc schedule that is weak it's hard to see how we don't end up with 9-10 wins and maybe better if fortune shines on us.

If I didn't go with the Alma Mater I'd take ATM here. Their QB is the real deal and with Chavis their defense should be improved. I don't think they take the SEC but if they end up 3rd in the West or so they will be top 15 easy by the end of the year.

Labeling this a miss. Baylor ended up technically being overrated but unless someone called Ohio State 2014 type qb injuries it's hard to call that legit.

Oklahoma State-again technically right but woof on the last three games. Can a team be both underrated and overrated at the same time?

I had ATM as my alternative underrated team. Kyle Allen could be the next Manning. I hope he has a killer season at Houston before going first overall but the aggie experience has hurt his career trajectory. I banked their season on him and he got so fed up with the bullshit he didn't even make the bowl game

I had BSU under rated at #22. Prolly finished somewhere somewhere in the ghetto of teams 15 or so below even the list of additional 12 teams listed in the "Also receiving votes" section at the bottom of the poll. :L

Definitely in the top half of 64 though.......so there is that.:tsk:

Overrated: #18 Arkansas (8-5)
Underrated: N/R Texas A&M (8-5)

Meh. Arkansas was slightly overrated...not sure about A&M. Guess they finished about where they were expected to. Thought that A&M was going to be better, after their clobbering of #15 Arizona State (which was another team that was way overrated).

Definitely was the most disappointing team in our program's history

we had a lot of talent too but only occasionally put it together

Overrated: Clemson - 108th in the nation according to Phil steeles returning experience chart. Only 4 defensive starters and 2 OL starters, and lost their OC.

Underrated: North Carolina - 8th in the nation according to Phil steeles returning experience chart. Brings in a great defensive coordinator, they can only improve. Offense lost a grand total of 16 catches, will be better than they already were. Strong enough to compete for an acc title. Whether or not they will is another question.


Alabama and Ohio State are well coached, I'm not sure Clemson is. Michigan was bad and stayed bad. UNC was good and will get better. UNC also progressed throughout the year last year.

Half right. Clearly Dabo is a great head coach, and I didn't believe that until this year. Venables is also probably one of the top DCs and I didn't give him enough credit either
