What was the biggest upset you were ever involved in?

Talk about your miracle upset win, or your unexpected upset loss, that wasn't supposed to happen.

This game didnt get much attention back then, but it was quite a shocker when it happened.  In the 95-96' season, over the christmas holidays I saw Orangefield beat West Orange Stark at WOS 82-75.  Back then West Orange was a considerably bigger school (they still are compared to OF) and was 4A, and they were very good.  They played a couple of guys over 6'6 and i believe they made the playoffs that year.  I believe its the only time OF has won at WOS.

1991-1992 season...my Soph year at PN-G...we Beat Port Arthur Lincoln in a district game. It was the first time in awhile Lincoln had lost a district game. It was a pretty neat experience. Behind the hot shooting of Joel Lafleur, the indians prevailed by 3 points, something like 50-47

No one will remember this one. In 1980 Orangefield (Ranked probably 200 out of 240) went to East Chambers and shocked the #8 ranked Buc's 52-51. Guess who played on that team for EC? A little hint, his son is a junior on the team now.

I had just returned home from a mini-vacation to Vegas.....I had lost $8500......but the wife only knew about $2000...the $2000 I pulled out of the bank account while I was in Vegas.  Needless to say, it was the biggest upset of my life.  The wife won everything in the divorce. 

I felt like what the Miami players must have felt like when Flutie and BC beat them on the Hail Mary!  I felt like what Mike Tyson must have felt when Buster Douglass shocked the world!  I felt like what the Longhorns must have felt like when Coach Fran and the Ags won the Lonestar Showdown this year!  I felt like.....biggest upset of my life :'(

    • What were the issues at Rusk?  SB, Admin, Culture, Pay?  Inquiring minds would like to know.
    • This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up From the article: “As a parent, then as a homeowner, if you have some equity in your home, then you can say to your child, you know, ‘don’t take out the loan,’” she said. “‘I’ll take out some of the equity to help you pay for tuition so that you don’t graduate with extraordinary student loan debt, and so that when you graduate, you can do your dream job.’” Essentially, Harris suggested that parents give their kids a leg up in the world by being the ones to take out a loan instead. Except theirs would have much higher stakes than just needing to be paid back — it could mean losing their home. 🤦‍♂️
    • Good luck and safe travels. Bring it home.
    • It has been frustrating seeing the lack of coverage from virtually EVERY media outlet.  We (Chester) are in the SE Texas coverage area.  There are no radio broadcast from our area, and Ch 12 is the only one that has even mentioned it.   I know I could have gotten donations to cover a SETX Sports broadcast.  Oh well, water under the bridge - we aren’t as big as Silsbee, WO-S or PN-G.
