I voted for ISU, but the Stanley cup is the hardest trophy to win in all of sports and in the history of the cup ( and we are talking a lot of history) no 8th seed has ever won the cup , they set a record for most consecutive road play off victories.. It was a pretty amazing accomplishment.

That said most people have already forgotten who won the award.

"hardest trophy to win in all of sports"

Yes, Iowa State has a better chance of winning the crystal football than the LA Kings have of winning the Stanley Cup.

Seriously...the Kings are a PROFESSIONAL team...they are paid to win. They should be embarrassed to have beat out three college teams!!!!

When college football requires you to win 16 playoff games (after playing 82 regular season games), in a very violent contact sport, come talk to me..

Fran threw a chair a couple of feet. He was up for the Bob Knight achievement award I believe.

I got that after ISU lost to Kentucky in the tourney. Easiest comeback ever.

I think I read that the Kings were favored over 2 other NHL teams to begin with...soo... I don't really think it qualifies as the biggest upset. Iowa State was a 26 point underdog
