[QUOTE="Wrecking Ball, post: 93411, member: 1287"] [USER=1640]@Northeast Stinger[/USER] that's fair, but you also have to dig into those big games. Against Duke I believe we had 4/ turnovers and Duke converted them into 24/28 points, essentially breaking the game open. Against Clemson, just look at this drive chart: [url]http://espn.go.com/ncf/drivechart?gameId=232630059[/url] we stopped them on at least half of their possessions and gave up a ton, and I mean a ton of bad field position.

In 2002, we allowed 21 points a game and were 28th.
