     That is kind of my take.  I mean each to their own.  Everyone 
perceives things their own way and that is fine.  This ASU game was a 
tough loss certainly but in my mind I don't believe it was an upset.  I 
always think of an upset as a game where the team that won really had no 
business being on the same field as the opponent and they pulled off the 
win.  Example being NU and OU in 1959 or ISU and NU in 1992.  But, that 
is just my perception.  Others may see it a different way.
