In response to james
Yes, Yale overall exceeded the preseason media picks. But by the time the conference season started, Yale was a top 80 team and the obvious favorite to win the league. Based on Pomeroy ratings, they should have gone 14-0. Instead, they promptly lost to one of the bottom 10 programs in the country. And the followed that up with a home loss to another team in the bottom 100. So in the conference season, they underachieved by 4 games, which is way more than any other team in the league. They were favored in all 14 games, and managed to lose 4 of them. To me, that’s underachieving.
