Michigan's offense.

Big Ten teams learned they have to constantly hit Michigan’s quarterbacks. And this leads to attrition.

That's why I'd have a safety and a field goal for UNC`

LSU would get their only field goal on a turnover.

Millen on UConn…“This is just the starting point for these guys. They’re going to get better. This team pays attention to detail, and you can see it in their play.”

If by details, you mean poor tackling, inability to catch, and a near-total lack of execution, then sure.
