Default Oscar-winning/nominated Actors Eclipsed by Their Non-Nominated Colleagues

Does anyone else think that there are non-nominated performances that were actually better than Oscar-nominated or -winning ones in the same movie?

For instance, I watched Ben-Hur expecting a tour de force by Best Supporting Actor winner Hugh Griffith, only to find out that Jack Hawkins was the more memorable presence, playing an actual human being with a surprisingly affecting character arc instead of his fellow cast member's broad caricature. In fact, I was so unimpressed by Griffith's turn and, conversely, so taken with Hawkins' performance that I second-guessed myself, thinking that I must have confused one with the other.
