Ahh man. Great story

Washington had MULTIPLE first round draft pick skill players in the last 3-4 drafts...total underachievers especially last year. USC IS fukkED with sarkesian and doesnt know it...

OH okay, I thought you meant underachieving as far as National Championship contenders. Yeah, Sark definitely should have won more than he did.

Georgia - Should have more than one National Title, and to not have a SEC title since 2005 and be ranked in the top five in 07, 08, 12, and 13 is pretty underachieving.

Now there are teams like South Carolina that needs to win a title soon, cause 11-2 ain't gonna cut it every year. Ole Miss just sucks Tennessee is just abysmal, and Kentucky is....they should be kicked out of the SEC in favor of another team.

Speaking of the ACC, Virginia Tech is a big underachiever to me.

UT is probably top 5 or higher money makers in the SEC. They'll be back on top before any other abysmal team in cfb

UT just needs coaching. It looks like Butch might be the the guy, but we will see. UT is still pulling in good recruiting classes, they just need to pull it all together. I liked what I seen from them last year.

They might be my Penn State this year, betting wise. Not a great team, but they will cover more then not.

I agree, just saying currently, they fell off something bad after 2004. I believe Butch has them going in the right direction.

Great post last page by y'all.

I must be overvaluing GT because I believe they should be better than 7/8 wins a season which outside of 09 is pretty much what they've been. ACC is the kings of underachieving schools to me. You look at all the top level talent the ACC puts into the league it's a damn shame how sorry the conference usually is when it comes to having a stable of teams that are contenders year in year out.

FSU and Clemson going 3-0 in BCS bowls last 2 seasons surpassed the ACC total wins from the first 14 years of the BCS.

Another reason Urban Liar had it so easy at Florida during his run. He caught Miami,Tennessee and a shot to shyt FSU at the right time.

A lot of the underachieving in the ACC was because Clemson, FSU, and Miami weren't doing what they were supposed to do during that time. Too much talent on those teams to put up the records they had.

Co- fukking sign. The ACC as a conference is mind boggling. When you look at the talent of the players, but the underachieving schools. I don't even know how to describe it.

Tho, it is fitting a ACC school knocked off the SEC for the NC. But still..

It is because most ACC schools just don't care about football. They also have poor coaching.

True, but the football schools were straight up underachieving during most of the 00s. It's turning around now due to good coaching like you said.

Baylors new stadium is looking good.

Spoiler: McLane Stadium

Man we had London when his name rung bells, jimbo, Butch Davis, Beamer, Obrien, Cutcliffe, Friedgen, Dabo a few yrs back. Not the elite of the elite but they all had top 10 coach in the nation potential. All just shyt the bed or did illegal stuff

 

[Silkk]

all this UCLA hype.

Faggits going 8-4 at best

And as far as the underachieving crown, that goes to LSU
