We both know that the game was way more lopsided than the score. Most times when one team has that many turnovers they lose ugly. You can fix ball security, but you can't fix ugly.

But the turnovers were caused by strong defensive play by USCe. They weren't simply bonehead mistakes...

You saw it differently than I did. Hold the ball soft and you make the defense look good.

Nah. Those were hard hits.

They were. SCar has a damn good front 7 that hits in a way that makes you want to quit. SCar is not a good team overall. Good to great teams have players that get hit that hard and still retain possession. Interestingly good teams overcome those turnovers and win anyway.

I thought so, too. I've been watching us play for over 30 years. I've seen Stephon Gilmore and other NFL level defensive players do the same thing over the years. The turnovers were not balls stripped out after momentum had stopped, these were solid hits after progressing past the line of scrimmage.

Yet Kentucky overcame at least 4 turnovers and won anyway. Tell me again why this means SCar is better than what we see.

We've moved some younger players up, for better play. We will be better in late season after gaining more experience. Our chief problem is fixing O line. It was better than last week, especially for number 52. He whiffed empty handed a LOT last week. The Georgia defense shifted often and he and others never picked it up. Georgia was attacking the QB unopposed for a large part of the game. Last night our problem was Kevin Steele getting stuffed before the line of scrimmage. Last year he ran for over 1100 yards, averaging 7.2 yards a game. O line got to pull itself back together. Doty had a better time in throwing the ball last night. If he gets a little more time to throw, he will start putting up some numbers. Remember he missed a lot of time with his foot injury. He is still getting up to speed.

Im pretty sure we were leading the nation in turnovers and fumbles before the SC game.

One would think. But, like I mentioned before the game, it's becoming an alarming trend. Now, our D seems pretty stout.
