It's possibly the most important stat in football

If we protect and create a couple, we can compete. +2 turnover diff plus aggressive offensive game plan could do the trick.

Edit for crappy grammar

And against Ole Miss, LSU was -1?


Yes. Don't muff the punt @UGA, most likely score on that drive like the last several, momentum stays with us, win win.

One of those picks in the endzone @Ole Miss becomes a touchdown instead, we win. In his scenario, two of the picks go away, and we win comfortably.

But yea it's not rocket surgery, less turnovers means more wins most of the time.

Not really seeing how we'd have beaten Ole Miss if we'd been +1 in the Ga. game.

If we had scored more points than our opponents we would be undefeated. I'd argue THAT is the most important stat IMO.
