Hmmm...but the key to Morgan's success at Cowpens was his use of the militia as skirmishers, who then broke ranks and ran behind a line of Maryland "Regulars" -- Wellington's army at Waterloo, for the most part, were well trained professionals.
I don't know -- I'll e-mail my military history professor (we studied Morgan and Cowpens in class) and get his take on it.
Cheers, 
Todd
