It asked you to believe that Auburn football was one of the shining academic beacons less than a year after academic irregularities were uncovered by the New York Times.

It asked you to believe that mid-major schools were the main academic offenders in its annual Academic Progress Rate report, but that only one football program among BCS schools is academically deficient.
