Upsets need to be tweaked as reported in the news, some were not upsets..
Would also like to see more highlighted upsets in the news.

game defines an upset as a team with a 20-25 point prestige difference. So a 70 prestige team losing to a 45 prestige would trigger it. I can look at increasing the frequency of these based on other factors.

On the surface, seems like current record/ranking/point spread should be considered as well since prestige alone might not represent a true upset situation all the team.

Yup, those are the "other factors" I was referring to.

I agree, if a 2/10 beats a 9/10 team, that's an upset for one
