But they did turn the ball over four times. This is the worst argument made by opposing fanbases.

Well it shows that you were probably the worse team on that day in some respects... if you are outgained by a lot and need a bunch of turnovers to win, it has more to do with the other team beating themselves.

Dude. Stop. You make yourself look dumber with every post. If you take a look across the board, if a team loses the turnover battle they lose more often than not. NCAA, NFL, Freaking Pee-Wee league, it doesn't matter. Its an aspect of the game. If it was strictly about lining up and putting the best offense and best defense on the field, we could play the games on paper. UGA could have won the SECCG using your logic since clearly we were the better team for 30 minutes and without turnovers and special teams, no way LSU wins. Either way, the game happened the way it did.
Come back when UW is relevant again... or for that matter any program in the Pac12 not named Oregon or USC.

No, it doesn't show that at all. Games aren't won based on total yardage buddy. The last six NC's should tell you as much or another conference would actually have one.

We were out gained because they threw the ball like 65 times. We didn't need to throw it half as much.

We made a lot of teams turn the ball over more than they were used too. That game was nothing out of the ordinary.
