[Husker] Turnovers

[Paul Dalen]

Maybe I'll dig into this, but my hunch says that turnovers are, other than scoring defense, the most highly correlated to winning statistic there is. 

So, from that standpoint, it's probably not hyperbole to say that turnovers are the biggest problem NU faces.

>> Interesting piece in today's OWH about turnovers. Nothing surprising, but the stats are rather stark: In the 68 games since Pelini became head coach, NU is 35-2 when it wins or ties in TO margin (including 8-1 against ranked teams). When the Huskers lose the turnover battle, they are 13-18 (0-11 against ranked teams).
