HU couldn’t be much more efficient in the red zone. In 11 trips inside the 20-yard line, the Pirates have nine touchdowns and one field goal. They’re converting 55 percent of their third-down chances, fifth in the nation.
For the Pirates, that’s all good news. But Hampton has seven turnovers this season, four coming in last week’s 37-19 win over Howard.
And HU coach Connell Maynor knows that can’t happen Saturday against Norfolk State.
“When you play a good football team, you definitely can’t afford to turn the ball over, and definitely not four times,” he said. “Norfolk State has a good defense, and if we turn the ball over four times against them, I’d be lying if I said I thought we’d win the football game.
