  We show that typical cocycles (in the sense of Bonatti and Viana) over
irreducible subshifts of finite type obey several limit laws with respect to
the unique equilibrium states for H\"older potentials. These include the
central limit theorem and the large deviation principle. We also establish the
analytic dependence of the top Lyapunov exponent on the underlying equilibrium
state. The transfer operator and its spectral properties play key roles in
establishing these limit laws.
