Smile Upset of the year from NDSU

From ESPN.

Quote:
Had there been any fans making the trip from Fargo, they probably would have passed out at the Kohl Center from sheer shock.

"We didn't know what to do," North Dakota State assistant coach Saul Phillips said following the Bison's stunning 62-55 victory over Wisconsin. It put an end to the Badgers' 27-game non-conference homecourt winning streak.

"We were supposed to act like we've been here before but we hadn't," Phillips said by phone from Madison. "Our guys just went numb."

...

Think about that: The Bison beat the Badgers with a starting lineup of four redshirt freshmen and a junior college transfer.

This is one of the biggest upsets in basketball of the past few years. Definitely the upset of the year. NDSU was Division II just two years ago and they are one of those nomadic independent teams.

Had 3 undefeated teams not lost on that same day, this would have been lead story.
