Turnovers
Dominated on both lines of scrimmage

There are other things I didn't like, such as the poor tackling and constant cushions we gave the WR's on 3rd down, but I think those 2 are the main 2.
 
Yep...you can also throw in offensive playcalling in your 'other things' category.
 
2 Main things:

1.) Lack of Discipline
2.) Awful offensive play calling.

Extra Credit: The awful 3 man rush, which always leads to a big gain.

How can TO's not be considered the #1 item, that was the game right there. Two TO's in the scoring half of the field??

First turnover may not have brought points, considering where it happened.

Second turnover was a killer since it was in enemy territory and we could have taken a lead into the half, or at least cut it to 7-6.

Third turnover was brutal because we NEVER should have been in position to throw. Horrible play calling.

Final turnover was also in enemy territory but no guarantee of points.

Bottom line - we left at least 10 points, probably more, on the field tonight thanks to those f#cking turnovers.
 
Right side of the OL especially. Half of that problem will be solved by the Pitt game.
