The only stat I referenced with numbers is rushing TDs.
It is the best one for reasons you mentioned.
But playcalling and efficiency on third and short tell the tale as well.
UGA versus Mizzou 2013.
UGA went about 13 straight third downs with all attempts going to the air (even the short yardage).
The only attempts on the ground were late in the 4th when Mizzou was in prevent.
What does this mean? Too much pressure to win was on the OL's pass pro and Murray's ability to make plays?
Did Murray have a bad day? Or did he not get any support.
The answer is that he didn't get any support and a solid defense is going to tee off on that and create turnovers.

One point that I forgot to make...
UGA ran for a lot of yards against Mizzou.
But as I said... if you aren't able to run on 3rd down or in the red zone, they are meaningless yards.
Murray had help moving the ball between the 20s.
But every money down was on his shoulders. And that is not how winning is done in the SEC. Otherwise, Mallett and other top throwing QBs would have racked up more hardware in the conference.
