There's only one number you need to remember from the game: 5. Five turnovers is no way to go through life son but let's put a little more context behind that. Of all games involving FBS teams from 2005-2013, only 4.2% of said teams finished the game with at least five turnovers. Teams with exactly five turnovers won only 14.3% of their games. Contrast that with games involving no turnovers by a team (17.5%): those squads won at a clip of 73.2%. When coaches talk about winning the turnover battle, what they really mean is not turning the ball over at all.

i highly doubt the Gophers would have won the game with zero turnovers. We were outmatched; plain and simple.

I dunno, these days with PVRs and all, you kind of expect football bloggers to actually watch the game before writing 2000 words.

To be fair, MVs analysis was statistical, not breaking down schemes or play selection.
