We're playing just good enough to be in and win any remaining game on our schedule. How much more can Gibbs squeeze out of this roster? What is our realistic ceiling right now?

Points Allowed: 45 20 24
First Downs Allowed: 34 18 23
Rushing Yards: 317 227 228
Passing Yards: 320 187 196
Total Yards: 637 414 424
Turnovers Gained: 2 Fumbles Recovered 2 Interceptions vs SHSt; 2 Fumbles Recovered vs UTEP; 1 Fumble Recovered 1 Interception at Ark (8 total gained)
Turnover Ratio: +3 +2 Even (+5 on the season)
Penalties: 10-69 4-38 4-31
Punts Forced: 4 7 1
Sacks By: 2 1 0
3rd Down: 9-15 6-18 7-11 (50% on the season)

If we can hold TCU to 500 yards of offense we are holding serve. Anything under that number and this defense is truly playing over its own head. This game will pace more in line with the Sam Houston State game than the last two. It is impressive to me to see what is beginning to take place on that side of the ball.
