Ohio State and Florida State lost 58 turnovers between them

[Millhouse]

101st and 127th in the country in total lost turnovers

if turnovers are a decent proxy for mistakes, it might not make much sense to be consumed by limiting mistakes considering the teams that faced off for the national championship. i'm sure that's a little unusual but still.

Yeah - pretty sure those are outliers.

Even you can't be serious about that.

Most teams don't have the luxury of firepower to make up for that.

they probably ran a lot more plays also

Ohio st and FSU were 5th and 28th respectively in TO's forced, so I'm sure that made up for some of that.

Higher margin for error when you have more talent and can score relatively easily.

of course. Lots of things clearly made up for it. I think teams are way too scared of turnovers especially on third down when they expect to turn it over in thirty seconds.

Fsu and Ohio state were in the 100s in total punts. Will be curious where the rank in turnovers if you include punts. Maybe FSU and Ohio state were smart to play riskier

When you can't score, mistakes are magnified.

Believe me, I know. I'm a Mets fan. Oh Lord

Yep and those mistakes are not just turnovers, but stupid penalties as well.

Need to improve the O and cutdown on stupid penalties.
