    5 minute difference did not not effect the way the Defense played
    1st half TOP -- Tech: 10:37 Nevada: 19:23

    That's almost 2:1 TOP advantage to Nevada. You think that played no part in wearing our guys down? You're picking and choosing numbers to throw around -- incorrect numbers at that. below are the TOP stats from Tech's own website. Nevada had the ball 6 more minutes in the 1st quarter, 3 more minutes in the 2nd, 3 and a half more minutes in the 3rd. You are insane to think that this made no difference. By the time the 4th quarter rolled around, our defense had been on the field for almost a full quarter longer than our offense. Spin the numbers however you'd like, but like you said -- the stats don't lie.

    Before their final drive that ate up 7:27 time of possesion was NV 28 Tech 22. NV scored 21 pts from drives less than 3 mins. NV Scored and scored quick, one from a nice setup from a blocked punt and the other two from big plays because of bad angles, lack of speed , soft coverage.

    The only game where TOP made a difference and was lopsided is NAVY, our defense look weak last night and not because of 6 min difference in TOP.

    You're being Rain Man with your numbers. At the end of the 3rd quarter, the TOP stats were as follows:

    Tech: 16:23

    Nevada: 28:33

    Nevada had held the ball 12:10 longer than us through 3 quarters. You keep using this mythical math to try and prove a point about TOP in the 4th quarter. By the 4th quarter, the damage had already been done. No one on here is arguing that the lopsided TOP was the reason for the loss or the sole reason the defense played poorly -- they were getting their asses kicked from the 2nd Nevada drive to the end of the game. But you've been on here all day defending Jenkins by saying that our inability to complete passes, convert 3rd downs, and extend drives has no bearing on our defense. Not true. The TOP may not have been as lopsided as Navy, probably because of a few big plays by Nevada, but it was still heavily slanted in their favor. Anyone on here can add those TOP stats by both teams and come to the same conclusion -- by the 4th quarter our defense had been on the field far too long.
