Some nominees:

Syracuse (1-1): Beat Colgate, destroyed by Lamar Jackson
Virginia (0-2): Double-digit loss by FCS Richomond, lost 44-26 @ Oregon
Rutgers (1-1): Lost 48-13 @ Washington, beat Howard
Northwestern (0-2): Two awful losses (W. Mich./Ill. St.)
Purdue (1-1): Beat EKU, lost by 18 at home against Cincinnati
Illinois (1-1): Beat Murray St., lost by 25 at home against UNC
Iowa State (0-2): Lost to N. Iowa and destroyed by Iowa
Kansas (1-1): Beat Rhode Island, lost by 16 at home to Ohio
Kentucky (0-2): Choke job vs. USM, destroyed by Florida
Washington State (0-2): Lost to EWU and Boise State
Arizona (1-1): Lost to BYU, struggled with Grambling


My five:

1. Iowa State
2. Kansas
3. Virginia
4. Kentucky
5. Northwestern (no way they're THAT bad, right?)

Kansas and Virginia have to be the bottom 2.
Iowa State and Kentucky in the next 2

By Virtue of being 0-2, with both losses to Group of 5 and FCS schools, I'd say this honor goes to Northwestern.

Losses are losses, but Northwestern fumbled going in for the winning score vs WMU and Illinois State banked in the game winning field goal yesterday.

At least Kansas beat their cupcake. ISU couldn't even do that.

Sure, URI <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< N. Iowa, but still.

Northern Iowa's a far better team than Rhode Island. Hell, Albany blew URI out by 4 TDs yesterday. They're one of the worst teams in FCS.

Kansas got absolutely dominated by Ohio yesterday. OU only won by 16, but it felt like 40. The team that Kansas beat is a horrible, horrible FCS team

Kansas might have just that one win this year, they're easily the worst P5 team. All the other teams are bad, but at least they have some talent. I think UK and UVA could have beaten Ohio at home.

We get to keep that crown until someone rips it out of our cold, dead hands. Hopefully that's Iowa State this year, but I highly doubt it.

Iowa State is horrible. It is too bad Iowa is saddled with having to play that crap program every year. This might be the year they go winless. Only chance I see of them winning a game this year is in the Toilet Bowl against Kansas.

You're right. Losses are losses.

However, you might be able to make an argument for the WMU game.

No excuse for the IllSU loss. They let them hang around and they got beat.

Virginia has the worst losses although Richmond is highly ranked in its subdivision.

Iowa State loses to N. Iowa often enough that its not an upset.

where 1 is worse

1 Virginia
2 Iowa State
3. Kansas did not expect anything from them.
4. Kentucky
5. Rutgers
