This one is REALLY an interesting article on a very hot topic -- turnovers. Read and comment...
"Call it a yearlong test of self-discipline, if you want. That, among the many corrections Nebraska must make in a year, this one thing — turnover margin and giveaways — is the non-negotiable. The must. The thing that, if Nebraska doesn't get it right, means everything else has to get that much better.
"All indications are that coach Mike Riley embraces it. In an interview this spring, he said he wanted Tommy Armstrong to throw just five interceptions. That's remarkably low, but that's why five interceptions is the goal. Nebraska would probably live with eight to 10. NU hasn't been lower than 10 since 2011."
