It is asking what team is a surprise. We didn't just beat a 5 seed, we beat Syracuse fairly easily after they beat UConn and won the Big East tourney. Then in the next round, we lost to LSU by a big one point (you remember how LSU went on to the Final Four? That could have been A&M). Furthermore, quite a few major sports magazines had us ranked in the top 10 before this year started. So once again, I am trying to figure out how you are refuting me. A&M is only a surprise to people that weren't paying attention.
Well, Justice, A&M is a surprise to me, and I was paying attention. I thought they weren't going to live up to preseason expectations, and they wouldn't be as good as people were saying. I knew they'd be good, but not this good.
