I used touchdowns because it is easy to grab the info out of the box scores where as non-touchdown passes require digging through the play-by-play stats.
However, seeing as I so strongly disagree with the "Sirk is inaccurate" meme here are a few random non-touchdown examples:
NCCU: 3rd and 12, at Duke 37, Pass complete to Barnes for 44 yards to NCCU 19.
NCCU: 3rd and 7, at Duke 40, Pass complete to Rahming for 59 yards to NCCU 1.
Indiana: 3rd and 9, at Duke 32, Pass complete to Rahming for 18 yards to 50 yd line.
Indiana: 2nd and 10, at Indiana 40, Pass complete to Schneider for 17 yards to Indiana 23.
VT: 3rd and 10, at VT 19, Slant pass complete to Barnes for 14 yards to VT 5.
VT: 1st and 10, at Duke 37, Deep pass complete to Nash for 45 yards to VT 18.
Miami: 1st and 10 at Miami 15, Pass complete to McCaffrey for 12 yards to Miami 3.
Miami: 2nd and 7 at Duke 36, Pass complete to Deaver for 15 yards to Miami 49.
I could keep going. The box scores/play-by-play are full of medium length passes Sirk completed.
