RALEIGH, N.C. -- Turnovers are plaguing North Carolina State entering the final month of the Atlantic Coast Conference schedule.The Wolfpack lost eight turnovers during a three-game losing streak entering Saturdays visit from No. 19 Florida State. Thats more than the team lost in the first five games combined, even with one of those played during hurricane conditions.Reversing this sudden trend is critical for a team struggling to find its footing ever since a crushing loss at Clemson on Oct. 15.I agree with you: we cant turn the ball over, coach Dave Doeren said. We have to do everything we can as a football team. Because of the (small) margin for error, we have to be positive in the turnover margin. Thats the No. 1 reason you win and lose games -- in pro football and in college football.N.C. State (4-4, 1/3 Atlantic Coast Conference) had three turnovers through the first four games. The Wolfpack then had two during almost-unplayable conditions of driving wind and rain from Hurricane Matthew but still beat Notre Dame.But the numbers are up ever since.N.C. State lost two in the loss at Clemson, the last an overtime interception thrown by Ryan Finley to seal the loss. The Wolfpack followed with three turnovers in a blowout loss at Louisville, then had three more in a home loss to a Boston College team that went winless in league play last year.Theres little that the Wolfpack players and coaches can say, other than to accept blame for mistakes and promise to get it fixed.It starts with me, its my responsibility to make sure the offense is on the same page and doesnt turn the ball over, first-year offensive coordinator Eli Drinkwitz said. I accept it, its on me. Weve got to me more detailed.Finleys play has been the most obvious change. He didnt throw an interception through his first five games, but hes had two in each of the past three.I think the defenses weve played the last three games are probably better, Finley said, but at the end of the day, its on me. You cant turn the ball over.The turnovers have come as the Wolfpacks ground game sputtered, offering little offensive balance by managing just 45 combined yards in the past two games. Doeren also pointed to eliminating penalties to help ease the pressure on the offense; N.C. State has committed 27 penalties in the past three games.We can get them to be forward-thinking and I think thats where our approach is right now, Doeren said. Were not looking back. We have to look ahead.---Follow Aaron Beard on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/aaronbeardap---More college football: http://collegefootball.ap.orgJerseys NFL Wholesale . LUCIE, Fla.

Miikka Kiprusoff had just announced his retirement after a decade-long run in Calgary and it would be up to Berra and Ramo to fill the void.Williams technical director Pat Symonds says his teams development has been remarkably stagnant compared to rivals Force India this year.After finishing third in the last two constructors championship, Williams finds itself in a battle for fourth place with Force India this year. It currently sits fifth in the standings, 10 points behind Force India, and has dropped 25 points to its rival in the last five races.After the opening five races of the season, Williams was 51 points ahead of Force India, but a major upgrade for the British-based Indian team at the Spanish Grand Prix started to turn the tables.I think we have been remarkably stagnant this year and other teams, particularly Force India, have moved on, he said. Force India did most of it in one upgrade, which is quite unusual these days because you tend to trickle things in race by race, but at Barcelona they made a pretty major step forward. It may not have been quite as apparent in Barcelona -- I think it took them a little bit time to understand it and best utilise it.We have also introduced upgrades and we have improved the car -- if we went baack to Barcelona now we would be a bit quicker, but the delta wouldnt be as much as Force India.dddddddddddd They have done an exceptional job, but I think our development, which has been a strong point in 2014 and 2015, has let us down this year.Symonds was reluctant to blame Williams early switch to its 2017 car and instead admitted the teams development plan had not delivered the results he expected.Certainly the facilities and infrastructure are exactly the same as it was [in 2014 and 2015], and most of the people are the same and we know they are capable of doing a good job.We did make quite an early switch this year to next years car, but thats not all of it because some of the things we concentrated on at the start of the year to become our developments right through the year simply didnt work as well as we expected. We have a target of what we expect to get out of the windtunnel in terms of [downforce] points per run and this year it was not as good as it was last year. ' ' '
