The 2010 San Jose State game maybe. I think they shouldn’t have been favored in 2018.
UOP, the first win. I think that UOP was coming off a road win against Minnesota.
I had to look it up. 1986 UOP Tigers won over Minnesota the week before in front of 50 000 people 24-20.
Lost to the Aggies in front of 15,000 fans 45-41
I was at that game. Sochor called an end around to tight end Fortner that totally fooled UOP. That won the game. Fortner was a great Aggie player. Is he the AHOF? UOP fired its coach after that game.
I was at many of those great Aggie upsets that have been mentioned.
For me, I think the Stanford game was the most shocking Aggie upset though. I mean, D2 Davis beating FBS Stanford. That's crazy! It really was Davis vs Goliath!
I'd put our win over Nevada-Reno as the second biggest upset. Nobody gave us a chance. Reno was unbeaten and #1 in the nation coming off a 77-0 thrashing of Sac State if I remember correctly. The Toom was packed with SRO 5-10 deep around the field. The place was electric and the stream engine was smoking, wheezing and whistling like crazy.
We were so undersized compared to the Wolfpack players that it was ridiculous yet we took control of the game and never looked back. I remember the Reno players walking around like they didn't know what had hit them. This was Sochor's signature win, IMO.
Of course, those were the D2 glory days and it's a whole era now. The Tulsa win gave us a glimpse of where Hawk is taking this program. I think he has his sights firmly set on eventually bringing a FCS National Championship to Davis. Exciting times for Aggie fans!
