John Edwards defeating Lauch Faircloth in 1998 was considered a mild upset, IIRC.

Harry Reid's 2010 victory was pretty unexpected, as was Bill Frist's defeat of Jim Sasser in 1994.

A lot of people called Reid triumphing. Myself including, but also several local LV columnists.

Still, Angle seemed to have the momentum going into the final weeks.

I remember when they called that race...I was yelling "Harry Reid won!!" to my roommate (who didn't have a clue who Harry Reid was).
