Does that mean they predicted Alabama to lose 3 game?

That was my main reaction to that graphic, as well.

The idea that Alabama overachieved I by 3.1 is hard to believe. They are the defending champion and were loaded with 4 and 5 star talent. Kentucky is far and away the overachiever in the league. Kentucky was the laughing stock of college football after its first two loses.

We over-achieved?

We over-achieved?

I don't agree we over-achieved either however we did Achieve more then most expected especially after the second game

 

[Johnfarrel]

Achieving more than expected is the definition of over-achieving.

This is true lol. Nothing wrong with doing better than some dumbass machine thinks you'll do.

Bama Over achieved?

That explains Overachieving of what was expected of you.. Actually Overachieving is doing more then what you are capable of and would leave the impression you really wasn't that good.

It is impossible to achieve more than you are capable of since achieving it proves that it was within your capability.

I expected Alabama to go 12-0, win the SEC Championship and win two more games for the title. They are on their way

So you are saying it is impossible to overachieve?? So you think Nobody can actually give 110%. To achieve more then what is expected is usually considered overachieving.
The main point I was saying was that this team came together and became a good team not just a one day wonder.!! PEACE!!

Preseason I thought the tide would lose at LSU, but that's about it

 

[IDcatfan]

Since they're using that stupid FPI metric, I don't understand how in the hell we're not the top overachiever. That stupid thing had us as an underdog in just about every game we played this year!

Remember our 30% chance of beating Mizzou?:chairshot:

I don't know what to say about this.

There's a difference between expectations and capability. It's entirely possible to exceed expectations so no, it's not impossible to overachieve. It's not possible to give more than 100% of your capability though. The 110% thing is just rah-rah, coach speak drivel.

The main point I was saying was that this team came together and became a good team not just a one day wonder.!! PEACE!!

I completely agree with you. Shalom.
