Sorry for posting from another board, but the effort Robert put into this is impressive. My goodness, he has captured all 50 drops in pictures! Read it and weep.

Dropped passes: 50
Total yards that would have resulted: 512 yards (!!!!!!)
First downs taken away: 23
Dropped touchdowns: Six (which would have totaled 42 points)
Points eventually scored on those drives: 17 (that’s 25 points taken off the board, and that doesn’t include Marchie’s drop at the 1 yard line on 4th and 2 against MTSU which would have clearly resulted in points)
