Am I the only one...

that doesn't feel like this was a huge upset? I know the streak is very impressive, but this was coming. It's not like we were a 6 seed.

You're not the only one. The streak makes it look more impressive. Also, we're a damn good team, but we don't have the track record and history to matter to the national media, so it looks like a bigger upset to the people who create the narrative.

Personally? The last time I was this shocked at a sports outcome was when Buster Douglas knocked out Tyson. And I'm not kidding.

 

[MarkDallas]

The tool in the studio said "one of the biggest upsets in sports history." That's horseshit.

Buster Douglas knocked Tyson the 17 out and broke his aura of invincibility. And once Douglass got his payday, he no longer cared. He had a lot of potential but fought his next fight significantly heavier.

It was a huge upset.

We earned every bit of it, but UCONN is a damn dynasty. Talent, coaching, history, streak. It was all there. Nobody expected us to win that game. Even 95%+ of our fans. Saying this was one of the biggest upsets in history is no insult. Look at UCONNs talent and what they've done. The gap between the huskies and the rest of women's college basketball is cavernous. It really is. I'm proud to have our program part of a massive upset. It was. They earned it and it was no insult.

Vegas had us at 20 point dogs. +2000 on the money line. It was a huge upset that's getting a big boost from ending the streak.

 

[TrueMaroonGrind]

Agreed. It wasn't the biggest upset in sports history but it was a huge upset. UCONN has barely lost in the last 6 years, so whenever they lose it is a huge upset. Even if they lose to a 2 seed.

I'm not sure why you are so stuck on this anyways. MSU is getting phenomenal exposure and positive coverage. Those girls are about to play for MSU's first National Championship. Be happy!!

Agree, it was a significant event, we were a

Matchup problem with our bigs but in the end it was the smallest with the dagger.
