What are your Favorite Golden Eagle Football Upsets of all time?
I could list so many- the victory over FSU in '89, the win against Nebraska on '04, the CUSA Championship game in '11. But for the purposes of this thread, I'm going to go with the 2000, 21-0 shutout victory of Alabama. For those that might not have been around back then, I believe Alabama went into that game ranked 14th or 15th in the country. I heard the smack talk leading up to the game and walking into the stadium. And I'll never forget the faces of shock and horror that filed out of that stadium in the 3rd and 4th. Alabama went on to fall flat on their face but started the season ranked in the top 10.
