I think the perception of total turnovers, or average per game, was much greater because we had a bunch of games where it was atrocious. For example, we had NINE (9) games where we committed 17 or more turnovers, eclipsing 20 on 3 occasions. Surprisingly, we had less than 10 turnovers 6 times and went 2-4 in those games. But we did lose all 5 of our highest turnover games.
Conversely, last year we only had 2 games where we had more than 17 turnovers and had 7 games where we had less than 10 turnovers - and several were against our "best" competition of the season in Wichita St., Vandy and Northwestern.
