Oh? No worries here. With 5 (actually 4) turnovers, they beat themselves.


Can't make up my mind as to which is better - 55-21 or 48-14, but 34-11 will do.

Just imagine how close this game would have been if the Griz had a few referee calls go their way (sarcasm intended).

Aren't high numbers of turnovers expected when the whole goal of your offense is to run as many plays as possible ... and passes for a lion's share of those plays? Higher turnovers would seem to be a feature of this offense, not merely a bug of this one game.

That's a very good point. Using statistical probability probably isn't something they think about while studying contemporary dance.
