I'm a huge sports fan, so this is for the college football guys.
Has there ever been a more hyped-up pre-season team that ended up being as bad as Florida St? Saban said they were the best team in the country before the season and they were top 5 ranked.
They are 1-7. It's amazing how badly "pundits" can miss the mark.

So, there have been hyped teams going into a season that proceeded to have a wet fart of a year. I remember Arizona being named by SI as the #1 team heading into the 1994 season. They proceeded to go 8-4 and weren't anywhere near as good as what people thought they should be.
But, to answer your question, I believe that FSU is probably taking the crap cake as one of, if not the, most overrated / over-hyped college football teams of all time.

@Hwlngmad I remember that AZ team, they were good and I remember that defense was heralded. There have been others...I'm a USC fan and they've had a few but man, that Florida St. team just turned out to be plain bad. It's not like they are even a disappointment as a good team. I just can't remember a team being ranked THAT high losing seven of their first eight games.
