Most overrated team this year

[Big Orange Captain]

Penn. St or Texas?

Tie

Penn State. Florida has a solid defense and it is still the Swamp, so not surprised that Texas is struggling.

But UCLA and Nico are straight up ass.

That's a tough one but right now if Penn State keeps getting owned by a very bad UCLA team i give them the edge.

 

[volfan102455]

Agree - tie right now. Could be an interesting weekend if some of these scores hold up.

Glad the Vols are resting!

 

[HeuperDrive]

If Penn State gets blown out by UCLA, then there’s no tie whatsoever lol

PSU is one of the biggest frauds of all time

 

[TrueOrange]

Currently? #5 Oklahoma, #11 Texas Tech, or maybe even #20 Michigan

 

[MemphisVolFan1978]

Don’t forget about Clemson.

The preseason rankings are guesswork. But change the question to "most poorly coached team" and the answers would be almost the same..

 

[Big Orange Captain]

Don’t forget about Clemson.

It’s probaly Clemson from preseason ranked 4 to 2-3

Nico and Lagway.. Don’t want them playing for my team and don’t want to play against them. Scramble-first QB’s continue to be a mystery.

Penn State allowed last week’s loss to carry over to this week. I don’t believe they could be as bad as UCLA. Texas, on the other hand, ran into a Florida team that was supposed to be pretty good this year, but has looked really bad until this week..

I’m going to have to go with Clemson.. LSU is going to give them a run before it’s over.

I say Penn State most overrated.

I have been appalled all year over the rankings out the gate, but I guess there aren't better teams. I keep looking around and saying "these teams shouldn't be in the top 5 or 10" but then who is? So now Ole Miss is #4. That seems stupid, but then who do you put there?

P.S. Memphis is right, Clemson is the real winner. They didn't lose to 0-4 UCLA, but their catalogue of losses is pretty impressive.

Penn State had a seasoned veteran QB and two legit RB returning, Texas has a RS sophomore QB starting regularly this season ...


By large amounts it's Penn State that was overrated more, not even close.

 

[General Jack]

This should be revisited at season's end.

 

[adam.vol]

The AP voters are the most overrated.

 

[onevol74]

I agree the people who vote in the polls are the most overrated. It is nothing but a beauty contest at the beginning of the season and the B1G influence and credibility is about the same as MSM.

I would argue that your evidence suggests PSU deserved a good ranking but failed to live up to it. While TX may have been over ranked due to excessive expectations for their QB.

The Notre Dame beat writer’s votes always crack me up.
