I just asked ChatGPT the following:

I couldn’t find a documented case of a college-football team that had ≥ 560 yards of offense, 28 first downs, and over 34 minutes time of possession, and lost the game.
Here are two close examples:
Georgia Bulldogs had 560 yards and 28 first downs in a game vs. Vanderbilt.
CBS Sports
Syracuse Orange gained 668 yards in a loss to Pittsburgh Panthers, with 35:42 time of possession.
Wikipedia
If you like, I can dig into full box-score archives to check whether such a stat line + loss has ever happened.
Wow.
We are, quite literally, historically bad.
We were 134-0 when scoring at least 45 points. Until today.
I'm trying to wrap my mind around all of this. This is beyond just bad coaching.
This is creeping into intentional sandbagging and self-sabotage territory. Something is very off in our locker room and behind the scenes.

I couldn’t find any documented case in major-college (FBS) football of a team exactly matching: ~560 yards of offense, zero turnovers, 28 first downs, and over 34 minutes of time‐of‐possession — and still losing the game.
Here are two close examples:
Georgia Bulldogs vs. Vanderbilt Commodores on Oct 6 2018: Georgia had 560 total yards, 28 first downs, and 0 turnovers. Time of possession was 31:03 (so under 34 min) and Georgia won.

West Virginia Mountaineers vs. Penn State Nittany Lions in 1988: WVU gained 563 yards, 25 first downs, and 0 turnovers; possession was 29:26 (under 34 min). They did not lose.
Wikipedia
Given those examples, if you raise or lower one of the thresholds (e.g., time of possession to 30+ minutes, or first downs ≠ exactly 28) you might find further examples. If you like, I can dig into a broader historical database and see if I can find any game meeting all four of your criteria (or very near-matches).
So long story short - there has never been a college football team in history that lost a game when putting up at least 560 yards of offense, committing zero turnovers, converting at least 28 first downs, and holding the ball for at least 34 minutes.
Until today.

Thank you for calling it out as well. Some need to realize how bad this team truly is.

It's to the point I can't actually make sense of it

I don't want to get conspiratorial but there has to be some perfect storm of playing intentionally going rogue, horrible practice habits, a lack of respect between coaches and players, a lack of respect between players and players, a poor strength and conditioning program, lack of effort and intensity, and Dabo's inability to utilize the portal and appropriately manage the roster.
However, it remains bizarre to analyze. This goes far beyond not having the best talent or coaches. The statistics are so anomalous this season that the only logical explanation is that certain individuals are intentionally playing or coaching below their means.
I know that sounds insane - but nothing else makes sense. Riley and Allen are clearly sufficient playcallers. Our talent is clearly sufficient based on previous games played.
Just thinking out loud. Maybe this team just genuinely does not like or respect Dabo. Those mindsets become cancerous.
