I think you have to make a distinction between teams who ride hard or use a 10 man versus teams like Duke and Maryland who don't ride much if at all.

When you look at it from that standpoint the stats do show SU is sloppy with the ball against teams who force the issue and Cornell was definitely no outlier.

Against the teams who ride hard or run a 10 man - Colgate, Hopkins, ND and Cornell, SU turned the ball over as follows:

Colgate - 21
Hopkins - 16
ND - 20
Cornell - 20

That's an average of 19.25 turnovers  a game and I am not even including the Utah game where they turned it over 18 times where Utah ran a tough ride due to the bizarre start time.

I do agree that the struggles with shooting and finishing has been a bigger overall problem but as I've noted probably a few dozen times this year this team continues to be a hot mess against any team who rides hard or runs a 10 man and were going to see both the last two games.
