...upset. The nation's No. 1-ranked school, DePaul, which went into the championships with a 26-1 record, was toppled in its very first game, by a renascent U.C.L.A. North Carolina (21-7), a perennial power in the proud Atlantic Coast Conference, was whipped in its opening duel, by lowly Texas A.&M.
