We have had those bad luck games/years where we outplay, but lose or have great

talent, but can’t finish one play. Not getting the conversion against Utah with Taysom. Blowing the huge lead against Utah a few years back. A couple of games last year that could have been wins. Missed FG against BSU back in the day … I will take our winning ugly this year over losing where we felt like we had the win but for one or two things not going our way.

The difference here is that beating KSU and SMU are looking much better than beating

It means we're a seriously flawed team that is finding ways to win games most

Good while it lasts, bad if it comes back to bite us repeatedly like last year

Flawed because it isn’t perfect? It’s a good stat if you understand limitations.
