The narrative around men’s college basketball this season is that it’s at a level of chaos unheard of in recent years, with upsets galore and teams changing hands near the top of the rankings weekly.
This past week alone, AP top-five teams lost six times (two each by Duke, Butler and Auburn)—the most in one week since 1994, the ESPN broadcast announced after No. 11 Louisville added to the carnage by beating No. 3 Duke in Durham. While things have definitely been wild, has 2019-20 truly been more upset-crazy than usual?
