For Oklahoma to win they need to catch the ball, not turn it over, force turnovers, and score!! No wonder he gets paid big bucks.

That guy is an idiot... It's painful to watch him on ESPN and just as bad to read these articles...

3. Win the turnover battle. It sounds simple and obvious, perhaps, but it needs to be said. Oklahoma's offense isn't as explosive as it was when the season began, and if you're a heavily favored team, this is the best way to lose these types of games. It lost the turnover battle in spectacular fashion to Oklahoma State, 5-1. The result? The Sooners lost that game by 34 points. Oklahoma lost the battle 3-0 to Baylor and lost to the Bears for the first time in school history. Oklahoma has to take care of the ball.

Makes it sound like if you aren't a "heavily favored team" that you can win a game where you lose the TO battle.
