Zero turnovers so far

A lot of people, myself specifically, have pointed out that turnovers that cost us games under Coach O were attributed to coaching. Well, I just want to point out that zero turnovers so far is all on coaching IMO. These coaches are doing a fantastic job teaching ball security.
I'm glad that one of my favorite quotes "well coached teams don't beat themselves" applies to this team. Hopefully this staff will continue to prove me wrong and we are still seeing this in December and January.

We've had some fortunate breaks on a few passes, but shite, a little luck never hurts.

Yes, the zero turnovers is ginormous I agree!

Very very impressive considering we have a brand new quarterback getting used to new receivers and our starting tailback was known as a fumbler before this year.

Not sure where anyone had this idea that LSU didn’t take care of the ball last year. 8 turnovers in 13 games - #1 in college football.
I’m not going back to 2016 but 8 in the last 16 games is an amazing stat.

The only thing that is curious to me is that LSU seems to really struggle at forcing fumbles. Only 1 forced fumble this year. And last year there were only 7 forced fumbled the entire season. Coaches must not run strip drills.

The problem with strip focus is not making the tackle because you are trying to strip.

They were very good as well last year. I think my main point is that we've had some debates in the past couple years as to who deserves blame for losses under Coach O. Some blame the players for their turnovers, others like me say that's part of coaching.
I guess I'm just trying to be fair and wanted to point out how good of a job this staff has done so far this year since I've been very critical in the past.

Coach O said "Hold that Tiger" to the fans and "Hold that %^&*$#@ Football" to the players.
