said that "he'd done a study" and that penalties don't matter. After he said that, I looked at something like 5 UCLA tame play-by-plays. We gave up over a point more per drive (I think it was closer to 2) per possession on opponent possessions where we were penalized. And, scored over a point less (I think it was closer to 2) per possession on our possessions in which we were penalized.
He also said that he told Hundley not to slice because Steve Young (retired prematurely because of concussions) didn't slide.
