[@eegnoagn8048]

Before the race, the US team was viewed as an obvious underdog. Apple and Andrew were heavily judged, Murphy missed all the expected golds. Dressel was hoped to carry the team. The almighty British team was the clear favorite. Winning gold and breaking the world record by 0.5s is the evidence of a truly great success story.

[@luispastor8089]

Lol no, they were heavy favourites. Apple's ability as a 100m freestyler wasnt questioned at all. Murphy was a solid second and a half faster than Luke Greenback in the individual 100m back and Dressel had just broken the world record in the 100m butterfly. Not quite an underdog team

[@dynasty0019]

Just because the prelim team screwed up doesn't mean Team USA became the underdogs, especially when all four legs were swam by different swimmers in the final.

[@kingsarenas1536]

@@dynasty0019 Actually they were, especially Apple. Andrew lost the 200 IM, 100 Breaststroke, and 50 freestyle. Murphy did not defend any of his titles. Apple got the most criticism, because it was the first time USA missed the podium (4x200 freestyle relay) with a slow time (in their standards) of 1:47.31. The coach is somewhat right: swimmers bounce back, but come back better.
