Matics deserves more kudos than I could ever give him on here. After the season he has last year, to come back so strong this season, is simply outstanding. Way to go, young man!

I think we may just have ourselves yet another NFL kicker. Attaboy Matics!

An absolutely incredible turnaround and equally incredible mental toughness.

And if I remember right that one miss was a 50+ yarder. This has got to be one of if not the best year an App kicker has ever had. And that on the heels of maybe one of the worst seasons. Its always great to see a player take adversity and turn it into strength like that.

One of my great satisfactions when I was coaching soccer was to see one of my players respond the right way to a poor performance and turn it around.

I believe you are right.

And for his tackle on the final kickoff.

I thought I saw him limping a little on the sidelines late in the game. Did anyone else see this or did my tired eyes get it wrong?

I was hoping ESPN would give it to him. (Moore got it)

Does college do a comeback player award? He definitely deserves to be in the convo

The thing is, he is drilling these field goals RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE too!! Great job Zach "Auto" Matics!

Yes, in addition to his two 50+ yard field goals plus making all the PATs, he makes a saving tackle preventing another SoAla TD. That adds up to 17 points.

Without a doubt the biggest turn around I've seen by one guy in a years time. He went from being benched to being a potential NFL player.

An amazing story. His hard work and improvement mirrors that of the team. Last year's losses seem a century ago. Kudos also to the coaching staff for believing in these guys and not giving up on players like Mattics, when many of us would have.

He wasn't benched, just got injured at GS. But yeah, he wasn't injured at Southern Miss.

Matics was on Mountaineer Talk this year and talked about coming back after that game.

Perfect on PAT'S and only one FG miss this season. Special teams as a whole have played much better. The muff yesterday was the first special teams turnover this season.
