698 yards of offense

I'm not sure I follow that logic, because you could say the same thing about the other stuff BeeJ listed. Even with the two ejections, we still had a two score lead in the fourth quarter, therefore the ejections didn't cost us the game. Even with the injures to our starting QB, BB, and C, we still marched the ball down the field and scored twice and had a two score lead in the fourth quarter, therefore the injuries didn't cost us the game.

...which is what drives me to the voodoo hex conclusion.

We were so much better than USF that we still should have won after spotting them 14 free points, except for all the other garbage that happened.

I wonder how many teams have given up two consecutive KRs for TDs, had two defensive starters ejected for non-targeting, lost their QB, center, and tailback, and won.

Yeah that’s a lot.

I'll go out on a limb and say zero here. Sad thing is we still kick their ass with even a mediocre defensive performance.

How do you figure we were so much better than them? They punted thrice, turned over on downs once and had one turnover. We punted twice, turned over on downs once, and had three turnovers.

This loss wasn’t a fluke. They beat us fair and square.

Why do people say things like this? We practice ST all the dang time.

Because it looks like it. Kicker can't get ball in end zone, people don't stay in their lanes, nobody can avoid/get off their blocks. Either that or our kick teams are puffing the bong over on the bench.

This doesn’t tell the story accurately.

Our center missed all of one play. The back up QB scored 3 TDs and the starter came back and looked like hot garbage. And I don’t buy the tailback. If anything that is just as next man up as anything. In fact Mason looked pretty damn good back there.

Man shut the öööö up about voodoo shit. You can only use that ööööing excuse so many times. If you dont make a bowl in 3 years out of last 4 thats not bad luck. Wake the öööö up.

Hot garbage? You mean completing a 3rd and long conversion pass, and then another pass that was called back for a holding call that several here have said didn’t happen.

And in the drive he came back in on he was driving us for a TD until the fumble, which I’m pretty sure wasn’t his fault. You might disagree though.

He gives full control to whomever he hires as DC. That way he doesn’t have to be involved or take any of the blame.

That way at the end of the season confab with Stansbury, he can point out that the D again was the problem for a bad season! How many DC has he had in 10 seasons ? 5 isn't it. It's his way to keep his job.

Because the HC doesn’t care about anything else than his offense

I think he cares based on his stay at GSU & Navy. However caring about the Offense and picking a very good defensive coordinator are 2 different things.

This is utterly stupid:
  1. Our center missed the entire game; the backup played.
  2. The backup QB did an excellent job, but if you think that was sustainable for the rest of the game, you’re an idiot. No, the starter came back and did a fine job, got us to the red zone when a usually reliable back fumbled.
  3. There’s a reason Benson is the starter. Mason did fine, but not having Benson hurt us in a number of ways.

Try again.

The holding call looked legit. Blaming the refs is tired.

The fumble sucked - this team does that too often though. Seems less a fluke and more of a trend of sorts. CPJ sounded exasperated in the post-game and I can't blame him. This particular group of backs just keep putting the ball on the ground at the worst of times.

I haven’t gone back and looked at the call. I’m going off of what others have said. And was it Dodd who said it would be better to have died as a small child than to fumble the football?

And on the poor kickoff coverage, CPJ indicated that we had breakdowns twice in a row on the very fundamental aspects of kick coverage. We’ve discussed before that we need a special teams coach but it sounds like we still don’t have one?
