The Pokes had FIVE games last year in which they won by a TD or less. All via great a TO ratio. A 8-5 team could have just as easily been 3-9. The two biggest turnover guys from last years team (accounted for 70+% of them) graduated. I pretty much said all of this last off-season....
That's the CDC era at UW in a nutshell. They get killed by the great teams, destroy the weak ones, and live and die off of turnovers against the toss ups. Sometimes this works (2009, 2011) sometimes it really doesn't (2010). Don't know what 2012 holds....gets those TO's, and this could be another 2009. Don't get them, and it could very well be another 2010 unfortunately.
Just sit back and watch....
