Good ammo for Bobo detractors and given them a reason to circle the wagons after several months of complete silence.

But what exactly does "big game" mean and how many "big games" has Bobo actually coached in at Georgia? Or, is "Bobo in big games" just code for "SEC Championship Games." If that's the case, there's a sample size of exactly 3 games.

2011 SECCG – pretty god awful

2012 SECCG – no real complaints. Gurley ran on Alabama's defense back when nobody was supposed to run on Bama's defense, and Murray passed for almost 300 yards.

2023 SECCG – Not great, but our two best pass catches were gimpy and our 3rd or 4th best pass catcher didn't play. Right guard was questionable all week and Right tackle left the game in the second quarter.

People are looking sideways at Bobo over one play, the fumble on the reverse. It was 1st and 15. If the handoff was clean Bell had nothing but green pastures ahead of him.

I have been a Bobo supporter all season.

But between the preventable fumble, missed plays, having players out there who can't run... the offense simply wasn't prepared to play at a high level. It ultimately falls on the coordinator to get it together.

Let's see how crisp the offense looks against a respectable FSU defense.

how are there any of those left? Anyone claiming to be that is a certified dumbass and should not be listened to.

however many games he's OC'd that we've lost, according to some. Was the fricking sugar bowl with a chance to finish #2 a big game? the original blackout? Top 10 games against LSU and SC? Win in baton rouge? Numerous victories over tennessee/AU/gt?

We've played in countless "big games" under bobo and have won a ton of them. And only very recently has he had a combination of solid offensive talent and a defense worth a shite.

I didn't like it when Kirby gave him the OC job. I thought Kirby could've hired just about anyone he wanted. Bobo does cause some head scratching at times, and he's pretty predictable at times. But, Bobo can't block, catch, not fumble, nor not cause penalties.

I still don't like him but I do trust Kirby.
