Here's mine:

5. Pistons over Lakers in 2004 NBA Championship
4. Giants over Patriots in 2008 Super Bowl
3. Patriots over Rams in 2002 Super Bowl
2. Appalachian State over Michigan in 2007
1. Miracle on Ice (1980 Olympics)

2 of my teams are on that list. Whoever gets them first and answers the original question gets the 10 points.
Boise-OU is a good one too.
@Sam- That's true, but UM was still really good that year. They beat UF in their bowl game and were 6-2 in the Big 10. And they were top 5 at the time.
@Alex- Super Bowl 3 is up there.
 
clearly your teams are the pistons and one of the teams from the app state game (depending on if youre a wolverine or a spartan)

I would say
5) boise over oklahoma in the fiesta bowl
4) giants/pats
3) michigan/app state
4) stanford over usc 2007
1) miracle on ice

USA USA USA
 
5. Every NFC Championship the Eagles lost
4. Flyers over Bruins 2010 Playoffs
3. Lakers over Celtics 2010 NBA Finals
2. 1980 Miracle on Ice
1. Giants Patriots Super Bowl

i would, but i cant even argue. the only thing i would have different would be the 07 fiesta bowl somewhere on there.

@alex- are you kidding me?? the miracle on ice was THE greatest sports upset in history. theres not even a close second.

edit: yeah, i changed it. i forgot about that game and assumed that they were already going south. my mistake.
