Turns out that the Colorado-TCU game wasn't really an upset at all since both teams proved to be absolutely awful as the season played out. In fact, Cal blowing out UCLA at the end of the season was more remarkable.

[@TheBullyDisciple]

Of course hindsight is always 20/20.😂 When it happened that was a big upset. I'm not even a Deion fan but that was a good upset win to start the season. Even if they both had horrific seasons.

Lmfaoo TCU was favored to win by 20. Stop being a hater weirdo

[@tyreek.6815]

@@TheBullyDisciple Wow someone with common sense.

[@JeffGes]

I agree. Plus, TCU had the whole off-season remembering then hearing how they didn't belong. "We'll show them!" could have been their angry reply. Instead, it was their sigh: "We just don't belong." At the same time, TCU only had one game to play this year - and it wasn't Colorado or even SMU. It was their one last chance to kick Texas and they couldn't even do that. Came close-! But no cee-gar.

OU beating Texas was a fluke. OU lost to Kansas and Oklahoma state and Texas blew the brakes off of both of them. The officiating was trash in that game as well.

I agree the refs favored OU many times that game esp on their game winning drive but it was still an upset.

[@JeffGes]

OU and Texas never have upsets. It's a 110-game rivalry. OU only plays that one game a season and a few Big 8 years, there was Nebraska. But Okie State has barely been a rival for the last ten years.

[@highlights101]

It’s not wild. Colorado was 21 point underdogs

[@brandenwheeler9648]

No, it is wild. Especially when you look at how their season ended. Both teams. It was a battle of two bad teams to get their first win

[@greencm7142]

​@brandenwheeler9648 - At the time, very few people if any believed a team that only won 1 game the previous year would defeat a team that played in the National Championship previously. It doesn't matter what happened in the Championship game. The fact they defeated Michigan in the semi-final spoke enough volumes to have a strong expectations for the next year regardless of who they lost. So, I agree that CO beating TCU is considered an upset.

Any Nick Saban Alabama team getting beat in their own building is automatically an upset.

CU had a Top 10 toughest schedule. With a Commissioner named George Kliavkoff who was angry at CU for announcing their departure to the Big 12 conference and wanted to punish them, so he used the refs as the method. In 2022, they were losing by 29ppg. In 2023, they averaged their losses by 6.6ppg, a massive inprovement. The Buffs could have gone 10-2 that season if that motherfucker of a Commissioner didn't tamper.
