This feels like one of those things where people only notice the bad experiences, bad search results, and ignore all the times it was right, good/neutral search results.

One of google search's biggest advantages is the ability to save a click for the user. If I search for "NCAA scores" google will show me the live scores directly instead of showing me a link to the ncaa website which also shows me the score but at the expense of me having to click on the link.

IMO, the right way to dethrone google search would be to have better (or more) QOL features.
