The Impact Of Offensive Fouls On Marquette Basketball & The Turnover Problem

Yesterday, we published the Four Factors report from Saturday's game against #6 Xavier. I don't know if you've heard, but Marquette committed 20 turnovers in that game before losing by eight points. You can see how we could look at MU turning the ball over on 27% of their possessions in the game and say, "That. That right there. That's why they lost the game."

Not all turnovers are equal, though. Yeah, they all go in the box score under the column marked "TO," but that's about where the similarity ends. You've got your errant passes that go out of bounds.
