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.

No way, because I honestly believe Louisville had a chance going into this game. Not saying I expected them to win, but I definitely could see it happening.

Bridgewater is the truth and I knew Florida's offense struggles. It's worse than LSU and yes I know they won h2h at home.

Yep, Utah over Bama. However, it was the biggest upset in BCS history for a game played last night.... That's just ESPN trying to draw attention to itself.

Agree, both in points spread and ranking separation.

21 over 3 is a pretty big upset.

Louisville was a bigger underdog than both Utah and Boise State according to the Vegas wise guys. Also, both Utah and Boise State were undefeated, and Utah was only ranked two spots behind Alabama while Boise State was actually ranked two spots ahead of Oklahoma. Utah's win over Alabama was defintely the most dominant performance in BSC buster history because the Utes mauled the Tide in the trenches, they didn't out-finesse them.
