| ESPN just said Louisville is the biggest upset in BCS history. Agree or disagree (Posted on 1/2/13 at 11:59 pm)
I disagree. Utah over bama. Boise over Oklahoma. Tonight's game was big, but the biggest? No.

Nah. I think at the time, Boise St was probably the biggest b/c of the mid-major thing.

Both of those games you mentioned were undefeated top 10 teams winning, and Bama had their best o lineman suspended Louisville was #21 over #3, a 14 point dog, and they lost to an awful UConn team. Its the biggest upset

They said it in regard to the spread, so it's not n opinion. As far as people mentioning Boise St. And Utah, those teams were great. Heck Boise st. Was ranked ahead of OU coming into that game; the historical aspect (powerhouse vs mid major) and obviously the way Boise won is what made it a bigger upset than this one.

West Virginia beating Georgia in the Sugar Bowl seemed like a bigger upset at the time than its viewed now. Pat White and Steve Slaton were no names going into that game. Boise beating Oklahoma was the biggest upset though.

Yeah, he doesn't care what the point spread says. The point spread isn't a good indicator of how soundly one team is expected to beat another or how slim the odds of one team beating another might be. Oh wait. The biggest upset is determined by the point spread. It's either that or what some poster named Kafka things was the bigger game. Yeah...let's go with the point spread.

I would expect that from you because it's Bama and you're an LSU fan. But Utah was undefeated and finished #2 in the country. They shell shocked Bama with several early scores but once Bama got their shite together they played them pretty well even but were just too far behind, kind of like in the TAMU game this year. Louisville was a co-champ from the Big Least and owned Florida from start to finish. So, while you're entitled to your opinion, you are also wrong.
