Is it possible for a team to be unranked and have no expectations assigned to it, and still be overrated?

Not really. We have a bad habit of making overrated a really wide-reaching word.
That team would be considered ... bad.

I'll take Stanford.  I think for the first time in a long time, their defense is very suspect.  They go to Eugene, to South Bend, and to Seattle.  They'd have to win every other game, which includes home games with USC, Utah and Washington State, plus a trip to Tempe, just to tread water.  I could see a 7-5 type season coming their way.
Nailed it!  :sign0137:

You realize this is just back-handed, right? :)

So far, no obvious Big Busts.  LSU and Florida have looked decent so far.  Kentucky is a surprise on the upside of course.

Notre Dame has passed most of its tests already, so has Clemson for the most part.  The ACC is not looking very strong to me this season.

Washington looks pretty solid, which makes Auburn look competitive also, which in turn makes LSU look good.  That was a big game for perception.  Penn State looked like a possible flop after Appy State almost did their thing.  Georgia looks a bit suspect to me, we'll find out more soon enough.

Still plenty of opportunities for the Wolverines to plummet.
