[QUOTE="bravejason, post: 130264, member: 1069"] Regarding 3rd down conversions, Records are records for a reason. It's difficult to maintain that level of play from one year to the next. That isn't to say 3rd down conversions will be bad, GT could be top 5, but it'll be more like 53% instead of 58%. Over the course of a season, a 5 pct pt delta is about another half a dozen set of downs the offense gets. Regarding turnovers, that is just the nature of the thing, particularly fumble recovery. Again, that isn't to say the team will lose every fumble, but the ball will probably bounce towards the opponents a few more times next season. Due to defensive issues, the team hasn't really been good enough in recent years to tolerate many bad breaks. If the team can establish some defensive strength, then the occasional string of bad breaks or the occasionsl stall by the offense won't be so damaging to the team's chances to win. [/QUOTE]
