Left hash, right hash, middle hash...from that distance it should not matter. He had one job and failed. 

I agree, however a coach should be aware if his kicker is stronger from one hash or the other. Even NFL kickers  will line up on the hash their most comfortable with for extra points.

my point was he was he managed the end of the game terribly. Felt a lot like the Huston game a couple of years ago. It was a great drive & once they got down inside the 20 and  UC needed to take TO’s three runs would have made the FG a chip shot or probably netted them a first down.

Can't agree with you on this one. Its pretty simple the kicker sucks ass.

The FG’s he missed were from the right hash. The one he made was from the left hash. 3rd and five you run it to maybe get the first down or put the ball on the left hash. It would also forced UC to call another time out. Coaches have try and put their players in the best chance to succeed.

Coaches had to see he that.

this game felt like the Huston game.

A well coached and prepared team does not lose this game. 100% on coach Charlie Strong’s shoulders. He has lost several games making bad decisions at the end of the game & his teams aren’t just prepared to win because he’s not prepared to win.

they outplayed Cincinnati by a lot in my opinion and lost That’s 100% Coaches responsibility.

Charlie Strong has absolutely zero clue on how to manage the end of games absolutely terrible this team played their heart out and at the end the coaches let them down. You can blame the field-goal kicker but they still had a chance to win at the end, God knows why on third and five with Cincinnati having to use their timeouts they don’t run it take another 40 seconds off the clock or make Cincinnati use the time out get three or 4 yards or maybe even get the first down and then kick a field goal make it easier on your guy who struggled all night.

I would agree it’s almost unwatchable the way this team shoots it’s scary bad.

Agreed 100%. Not sure this coaching staff is capable of coaching up this roster to be competitive against good teams.. 

Not hitting open receivers & dropping crucial passes all boils down to confidence and grit. CCS obviously has not instilled that. It appears that The players like & respect CCS as a person but he needs to be coach sometimes and that means holding people to a standard.. not sure his standards apply to on field performance . 
I’m convinced that he will recruit well but it will not translate to on field success because he more interested in being a players friend and not their coach.. which as a coach is probably the worst thing you can do young people who are depending on you to help them reach their potential.

 Absolutely a nice and necessary win. However  South Florida had superior talent and should have run away with this game. I believe Brigham Young was better coached and had a better game plan. They dominated time of possession  even with two back up quarterbacks. They had the South Florida defense on the heals many times. McLeod did not have one of his better games he missed several open receivers for touchdowns. I see improvement but not enough to compete with the teams left on the schedule for them to win three games  and get bowl eligible 

 I hope I’m wrong and they keep getting better.

Wilcox did not catch a pass but his blocking in this game will raise his draft stock.  Being able to block will make him very attractive with his speed and size 

 I’m afraid it’s going to Be overturned.

You can just see the difference in confidence and attitude every time a play needs to be made SMU makes it and USF misses it.  My opinion confidence is instilled in players from the coaches very sad at this point Charlie Strong very disappointing 

This is a joke

unwatchable 

 They said somebody from South Florida left the field do you know who that is?

 As bad as they played in this game the ACC officials  hope the Georgia Tech big-time that was definitely a touchdown

 Coaching staff is really got to look at themselves this team makes too many mistakes give me a break procedure on the goal line fumble on the goal line 

Robbed  that was a touchdown all day

Not a single play out of the tight formation has worked.

 Has any play work not sure. This is offense by accident .

 The offense of line is a sieve 

 Offense by accident but I’ll take it 

 How many second and shorts are they not going to get a first down On 

Right now this offense is terrible. They better pray for defense of touchdown or they may not score all year

I’m beginning to agree I think Barnett does not look comfortable in this offense at all. Also it might help if the coaches gave their offensive tackle some help and chipped the defense of ends once in a while. 

 Needless to say it’s very disappointing at this time. 

 Almost unwatchable. Offense of line is  terrible. Barnett holds the ball too long. Looks like a deer in headlights this is going to be a very very very long season. Unless something dramatic happens 

I don’t think I saw one offensive play that looked like it was run as designed or could give me any clues as to what this offense is supposed to be. 

I don’t believe it is that bad but I saw no evidence that It could be as dynamic as it was advertised.

Hopefully is just a combination of Bad preparation, poor execution and terrible play calling

The offense wasn’t even competitive. 

But worst part was it looked like team gave up!!!!!!

Flew 2000 miles for this. Bell has some explaining to do. Way to many athletes to be that bad. Defense seemed better but the offense was not prepared. In fact the entire team was not prepared to play this game falls on coaching staff

 Embarrassing that you would kick a field go down by 49. I still can’t figure out what the offense of philosophy is 

 My wife and I are flying in for our first game at Raymond James.  Is there a bar or restaurant to hang out before the game or is there a USF tailgate?

 Just saw the replay. Back up quarterbacks are definitely an upgrade from last year. I would not be nervous if either one have to come in and play I believe they could do the job.

 They need a left tackle it was frightening how many times offensive  Linemen were beat.  At times it looked  like a sieve 

 This team is so much better than anyone expected in my opinion. However it goes without saying that shooting less than 50%  from the free-throw line and you will lose almost 100% of the time against good teams. It’s amazing with such a poor free-throw shooting performance that they took the game OT. It’s a testament to how good they are defensively. If they made their free throws the officials would not be an issue.  I’ve said this a lot but this team is undefeated with a better free-throw shooting percentage.
