Of the 7 bowl games we have lost since 2001 we played 3 in of them with losing records and had no business being invited. The other 4 we were underdogs and lost them all. I am not trying to make excuses for our bowl game record but trying to put into perspective.
The kid played great. and i think given the proper development, him being the starter next season could be a very ok outcome for UNT. He appears to be a "gamer" who has a lovely arm.
That said, while i agree with your assessment of TOs 1 and 3, I saw that second turnover differently. For me that second TO is at least partially on the QB . Yes protection was not great (but in my memory it was not nearly as bad as you describe it), but I still feel like he was trying to accomplish something that was obviously not there on that play, rather than just take a checkdown in a situation where taking the checkdown is fully ok.
