KSU sarted the season unranked. They finished with an 11-1 record and were the ONLY team to play and beat 5 ranked opponents this year (regular season). How does that make them the most overrated team in college football? Given the fact that nobody gave them a chance pre-season, I'd say they far exceeded everyone's expectations.

Wow, it WAS 1984 when BYU won it all. What sucked the most was that they played 6-5 Michigan in the Holiday Bowl - any team in the top ten would have crushed them. Michigan was something like #23.
By the way, insinuating that anyone blames Notre Dame for being ranked #1 is absurd.

Next Year
Looking forward to next year already. After seeing the high school all star games this weekend, and listening to the experts opinions on recruitment classes it sounds like N D is ready for a strong run. Another year with Kelly bringing Golson around should insure a strong 2013 campaign.

That's funny, becuase in nearly half of their games (5 of 12) they put up 50+ points on their opponent. You must have watch the other 7 games, huh?

Miami- UVA and UNC beat them. Oklahoma- Close Game. West Virginia- Bad team. Baylor- stated earlier. Texas- won big, as did Oklahoma. Oregon- Stated Earlier. I'll admit they were a decent team, just did not play up to their ranking.

Only 1 loss in the regular season and that wasn't until week 11. Again, they beat 5 other ranked opponents. Nobody else can say that. They also won 5 games by 50+ points and 2 other games by 40+ points. I still fail to see how that makes them the most overrated college football team in the country. If you want to talk about overrated, how about USC? They started the season ranked #1, went 7-5 and lost their bowl game. I would say they were overrated. BTW, I watched all 12 KSU games (13 including the Fiesta Bowl) and they looked pretty strong to me in all but two of their games. Last edited by vintagetoppsguy; 01-08-2013 at 02:24 PM. |

USC incredibly over hyped. I was hoping that pansy ass, whiny, crooked coach would have gotten the axe from Pat Haden.....

I honestly don't put any weight in Pre Season AP Rankings. I'm not sure what I would replace it with. Maybe no rankings until Week 6 or something, because I don't feel there is enough of a statistical example to make a measurement on how good a team is. Every team changes every season. Notre Dame didn't make the AP Poll this preseason, LSU was third, Oklahoma fourth, Arkansas tenth, West Virignia eleventh, Michigan State thirteenth, Virignia Tech sixteenth.
In the AP Stanford was ranked 21 and Kansas Sate was ranked 22.
