Diaco keeps telling us we can't win if we turn the ball over. After Syracuse he said it's impossible to win when you give up a pick six. Yet teams lose the TO battle and win the game all the time.

Why do these rules only seem to apply to the Huskies?

Because other CFB teams are capable of scoring points? If you know you can't, then you know you're never going to overcome any point differential handed to your opponents in the form of turnovers. It's a complete defeatist's mentality.

Coaches that actually know something about coaching offense just tell their teams to get out there and get the points back. They have that luxury because they actually coach the offense to score, not to play grind it out ball possession and hopefully eke out a few FGs.

"It's a bad thing you have four turnovers, but I guess it's a good thing when you still can score 42 points and win the ball game," coach Willie Taggart said.
