I find those number very fascinating.
[LIST]
[*]We are 2-5 [EDIT make that 5-2] on games where we gain 500 yards or more. 
[*]Only two games were what I would consider blowouts UCONN 40-10 and WV 38-14. (Possibly UL 45-26)
[*]Average margin was only 9 points in our favor.
[*]I guess yards alone don't mean as much as we might think.
[*]Two of the wins were last minute scores by us. USF was the great Ryan Nassib coming from way behind to win in the last minute.  Mizzou was last second td pass to Lemon. Lots of errors in that game also if I remember correctly.
[*]Two of those games were against a 3-3-5, which we seem to feast on (not so much with NOVA!).
[*]Saturday's game was the only one we deserved to lose. In the NW loss we had a backward pass stared at (Jerome) while it was on the ground and NW picked it up for a scoop and score and a pass was deflected off of I think Sales into the arms of the DB and he scored (or set up a score). A real miscue and a bad break.

I guess when the other team scores a lot of points we get more possessions and more chances to gain yards.
