This was a pretty big upset though, if you consider how average the Giants played all the season compared to the Patriots. Giants where able to turn it on for the playoffs tho, all that really matters once you get in.
Yeah Superbowl III is probably the top football upset of all time, I would agree with that. I've seen that game in its entirety like 3 or 4 times though, and it is played out. I think eventually this game will get that kind of media attention years down the road, but who knows.

Transcending all sports though, Miracle on Ice. Not only for the outcome of the actual game, but for the implications socially and politically as well.
