Did we over achieve in 2024

With only 3 players selected in the 2025 draft, and those late round selections, did we over achieve in 2024? If we didn’t, we must be loaded in 2025. Thoughts?

Seemed about right to me. 3 double digit losses.
1-3 against ranked teams.
Loaded this year though.

2024 was a lot like 2022 seasons results wise.Won the ACC (inline with preseason expectations) but lose all of the games against high ranked p4 teams on the schedule and inexplicably lose to the Coots at home.
The big difference is that the team is in a much stronger position going in to 2025 than we were in 2023.
So I would say we didn’t under or over achieve based off of expectations in 2024, we did exactly what most predicted ( win ACC but not progress in the CFP)

FSU was the clear favorite for the ACC last year.

We were in the rear view due to Dabo's No Entry bouncer role on the portalieres and one year of success under Norvell prior.

No, winning football games has nothing to do with individual players, it is a team game.

A punter. 3 were drafted another 2-3 will get free agent contracts. We performed about where you’d expect for a team with a talented Junior/So oriented team.

No. We had holes and also we didn't have many people eligible for the draft. No we didn't overachieve though. We didn't underachieve either imo.

Undetachieved. It is flat out unacceptable to lose to the coots no matter the circumstances.
If we could've beaten Texas i could be more forgiving.

They did pretty well in the draft and had some serious talent and we had some holes stopping the run obviously. Even the Citadel ran on us. We still could have easily won that game though.

* Even the Citadel ran on us."
This further proves the point.
If Clemson can't stop the Citadel from running the ball , that's a monumental failure.
Even if Stump Mitchell is at RB.

Yeah we had some coaching issues and personnel issues that were resolved. That was last year.

Did UGA underachieve based on how many early draftees they had?

I definitely think we underachieved.

I mean honestly we lost to every good team we played last year. Yes, thankfully we beat the teams that we “should have”. At the end of the day we lost to Louisville and the dirtpeckers at home… at home. Thats underachieving.
Thankfully we escaped Pitt with a win.

Last years team will ultimately put 20 or more players into the NFL so one could argue it underachievers, however much of that talent was on the younger side, as our returning production indicates, so one could also argue we achieved at about the expected level.
