Spotlight on Fraud Five

BECAUSE IT'S been way too long without a Fraud Five. And we crave our steady fix. The rest of the way I'll be taking care of that Jones in Monday's weekend wrap. So away we go:

BECAUSE IT'S been way too long without a Fraud Five. And we crave our steady fix. The rest of the way I'll be taking care of that Jones in Monday's weekend wrap. So away we go:

Notre Dame: You were expecting maybe Duke? Not the way Irish Nation envisioned the start to such a seemingly promising season. Not even divine intervention was enough to save the day.

Georgia: It's OK to lose to Boise State, even in Atlanta. But you shouldn't be giving up 28 consecutive points after taking a 7-0 lead, especially in those "Power Ranger" uniforms.

Oregon State: Can't be losing to FCS Sacramento State.

Texas Christian: It's not necessarily a felony to go down at Baylor, but you shouldn't be trailing by 24 going into the fourth quarter.

Boston College: Losing to Northwestern at home wouldn't seem quite as offensive if the Wildcats at least had Dan Persa playing quarterback.

And yes, we'd mention Duke losing to Richmond, but it's Duke and this ain't hoops. Ditto Indiana losing to Ball State, which isn't even supposed to be a factor in the MAC.
