Biggest Upsets in Sports History - What Makes Your List ?

Bottom NIT seed Robert Morris' win over top seed UK would probably make my top 50 or 100 list. 

UK failing to make the NCAA tournament this year after being among the top preseason favorites to win the tournament deserves a category of its own.


I remember when I first heard of the VA-Chaminade score. I thought it was a joke. VA was considered almost invincible with the 7'4" Sampson.  Chaminade was a NAIA school , the same as Georgetown College and Cumberland College.   This upset was the equivalent of Georgetown or Cumberland beating Kentucky's Anthony Davis team.
