Oh, and Florida, bless my heart, as over ranked.

LSU looked rock solid as a pick a month ago. Whoops.

We are more likely to spot over ranked teams than under ranked teams, it would seem, and perhaps that is inherent.

I'll picked Clemson as over-ranked because Watson was such a special player. (He is, he is on my FF team and is the number 2 ranked player overall.)
But the new Clemson QB seems pretty good as well, their only loss came on the game he got knocked out of.
I picked BSU as more of a numbers game, have a team go from others getting votes to ranked seem like a chance for the biggest jump, they just aren't that great.

That sucks

I figured Clemson for a 9-3 kind of year, which is still possibly, but they look more like 10-2 or 11-1 today of course. I agree about losing the QB and finding a pretty solid replacement.

Michigan looks worse than I figured, and I thought they were over hyped, but would be 9-3ish also, which means about 12th in the polls end of regular season.

NCSU was my pick for under ranked, and they still have a shot (Clemson this weekend). They are a decent squad but not great, and that early lose to USCe was bizarre.

Yeah, I figured LSU was a 7-5 type team in a typical SEC, but the SEC has been WAY down this year. So I'll comfort myself in saying they aren't actually any better than I expected, the competition is simply worse.

i had clemson as overrated. figured they'd drop 2 games and be in the 10-15 range. still might, but looking better than i thought.

had uf as under, and was way wrong.

also had mich as over ranked, hit on that one.

so i am 1-1-1 with clemson still hanging in balance. likely to be 1-2 by years end though, clemson looks like they'll finish strong.
