upset city

While it is pleasant in Ohio country to hail from Illinois right now (that would be the 2nd college football game I actually watched this year, 3rd total for football), I'm more amused by USC's heralded basketball team, or at least heralded freshman, losing to Mercer (@ home even). If anyone can tell me where Mercer is located without googling it or having attended it, I'll be impressed. At least most people in Ohio could identify Illinois as a state somewhere nearby and know Chicago as the capital (yes I know it isn't). Basketball this sort of thing happens more often, but it's still hilarious when it does. Obviously it does happen more often, as Kentucky lost at home too earlier in the week to another tiny school (Gardner-Webb).
