Upset? Nah.

First Kentucky a coupla weeks ago, now Duke. I have a *feeling* we're gonna see these INCREDIBLE UPSETS!! more frequently, for two reasons:

1. Most of these "great" teams that can become Goliaths are loaded with freshmen, as they're one-and-dones move on to the NBA. They're great players, but you never know what you'll get on any given night with freshmen. This isn't exactly Chaminade beating a Sampson-led team of juniors and seniors.

2. With the 3-point shot becoming more of a factor, you never know when some kid on some random team is gonna utterly catch fire. Carson Edwards was dropping threes from the concession stand and almost single-handedly beat Virginia last March.
