Upsets of the Decade.

http://gofightwinapps.files.wordpress.com/2008/07/krich.jpgIs George Mason's 2006 NCAA basketball Final four Run a bigger upset then when Appalachian State beat (#5) Michigan 34-32 in football....

Or How about When the NY Giants beat the 18-0 New England Patriots in Superbowl XLII... if you dont think so then maybe you think it was when Japan beat the USA in the gold medal softball game in the 2008 Bejing Olympics.

Back to the olympics.... could your biggest upset be in basketball when Puerto Rico defeated team USA in the first game of the Olympics by 17 point.  Or when the 2001 #15 seeded Hampton basketball team beat the #2 seeded Iowa State, in the biggest upset in NCAA Tourny history.

Another great upset was earlier in 2009 when the USA mens soccer team beat #1 Spain . In hockey in 2006 the 8th seeded Edmonton Oilers road goaltender Dwayne Roloson all the way to the Stanley Cup finals.
