Which SEC teams most often fail to live up to preseason expectations?
Thought this was intersting...They rate which SEC Teams fail to live up to expectations... one thing I noticed is we are 3rd on their list of teams that live up to the hype, or over achieve...

I would like to see Clemson and FSU, for comparison. They said Oklahoma was the worst in the nation....makes sense.

Re: Which SEC teams most often fail to live up to preseason expectations?
To be truthful, its pretty much gone just like the experts have picked for the past couple of years. Uga versus bama/ LSU is what everyone said, with the west team winning. True to form. I think this year, the preseason folks will pick us versus Bama, with Bama winning. If we can get some help for Clowney, and a steady secondary, though, I like our chances.

Re: Which SEC teams most often fail to live up to preseason expectations?
This is from 2003 to 2012.
You have to remember that in 2005 we were preseason #3 I believe and finished 5-6 and in 2008 we were preseason top 10 and finished 5-7. Those will bring down the average. |

Re: Which SEC teams most often fail to live up to preseason expectations?
Kentucky isn't on that list.
 They probaly would beat Alabama when it comes to these rankings. Kentucky consistently lives up to it's preseason expectations.
