the big thing I think we've missed in analysis is experience of the qb's

we've played. We have made a lot of interceptions as we've played young QB's in new systems. I'm not sure how our future opponents stack up but QB's with more experience won't be turning the ball over like the new QB's we've faced so far.

SMU is the only game I was worried about losing at any point in the 4th quarter.

Baylor was down by 6 with the ball and had put together some great drives

Not to me. I never had any doubt.

Turnovers have not really won a single game so it’s a moot point - they have

Against Baylor we couldn’t buy a stop without the last minute turnover

Turnovers have put teams behind and led to short fields

Here is the issue with his logic

3rd down percentage is not related to TO though, and he is right that we need

I agree but ARod has said multiple times that in 3rd the play calling may

3rd down becomes less relevant if you go for it on 4th down and get a first.

Didn’t we have several 3 and outs as well?

This is why TOP is a dumb metric that doesn’t tell the story and isn’t

Turnovers this year seem to be more a byproduct of the system than

Run game with our best guys was very good against AZ.

Yep. This has been the biggest issue imo. But now we are healthy at RB

Hard to see turnovers slowing down.

In the CCG or a playoff game I think an opponent will likely limit TOs

While I agree, a good defense makes me much more comfortable than a good offense

2 things impact that: an aggressive D trades TOs, sacks, hurries for higher 3rd

Hopefully the defense gets fewer TOs so the offense can get a chance to improve

I agree, especially on defensive stops on 3rd down. Against AZ we struggled

Very interesting. I point out the same truth and catch hate. I 100% agree
