still lose the game because of critical mistake

Lack of focus lead directly to critical mistakes.

quote:

Yes, I know that the critical mistakes are often due to a lack of focus, but not always.

---

In every instance.
A fumble occurs because of a lack of focus on ball security.
A int happens because lack of focus on the where the defense is.
If youre focused, critical mistakes dont happen.

Sometimes a team just beats itself.

---

Yeah because of a lack of focus on fundamentals.

quote:

---

As Bobby Knight said about coaching basketball fundamentals, you have to coach really hard against the game itself, because the game itself can beat you.

This is utter bullshite.

No basketball team has ever lost to the game of basketball. They have lost to an opponent that has taken advantage of mistakes. Mistakes made because of a lack of focus.

Now yes if a team is just more talented they can make you lose focus with sheer physicality and speed. This isnt the case in the lsu vs florida game.
