For argument's sake, when you factor in everything, here are the biggest five upsets in sports history.
1. Miracle on Ice
2. Super Bowl III
3. 8 seed Villanova winning '85 NCAA Basketball Tournament (Villanova shot 90 percent in the second half!)
4. The horse "Upset" giving Man O War his only loss at 100-1 odds (where the term Upset come from)
5. NC State beating Houston in '83 NCAA Championship
Maybe Douglas over Tyson is up there when you consider how good Tyson was at the time. Chaminade beating No. 1 Virginia in college hoops was big too.
