[QUOTE="Ron Swanson, post: 2779070, member: 71048"] By most of the metrics we aren’t a bad team. The problem is, we have the opposite of “it”. You know how some teams just have that it factor and they manage to pull victory from the jaws of defeat by coming up with key plays in clutch situations and just finding crazy ways to win? We are the exact opposite of that. Instead of overachieving and doing all the little things to win games, we go to entirely the other direction. My guess is we will continue to win the total yardage battle against most of our future opponents, just like we have against all of the teams so far (outside of ISU), but we will find ways to lose the games anyway. We will have special teams miscues, we will have turnovers in critical situations, we will run the ball down our opponents throats until the red zone where our drives will stall, our receivers will drop key 3rd down conversions, etc... EDITED to say that I agree with you, and that’s what is going to keep giving me hope this year (although I doubt my hopes are answered how I want them to be). [/QUOTE]
