Ouch on the last group. Fumbles are the killer. I guess when you qb can score from 50+ on the ground the red zone isn't as much of a problem (we'll see with stiffer competition).

That last set of numbers is bad. Reminds me a lot of last year, except last year we weren't that bad against our out-of-conference opponents.

that last group will get fixed, our offense sputtered in the 2nd half of games that were not even close, look at wisconsin against san jose state. they played a lesser team and didnt take them seriously, ou did it last week, it happens. the fact is that when our schedule gets tougher bo will have his team ready to play 4 quarters. things will get better.
