Is there such a thing as being a "good postseason coach" or is that just due to matchups?

Kirby Smart in his career is 5-1 in the playoffs. His one loss was in OT to Bama in the CCG of the 2017/8 season. (2nd year as a head coach)
He's 4-1 in bowl games with his one loss to Texas in 2018/9 by 7. (3rd year as a head coach)
Is Smart "good in the post season"... or is he pretty much the same coach and UGA has just been a good team with matchups that favored them?

It's not about attention and more about statements of coaches (like Ryan Day or Heupel) who are thought to wilt in big games where as other coaches (like Saban or Smart) are thought to thrive in big games.
Do you think that's actually a thing? Do coaches thrive/wilt due to the stage? Or is it just a matter of they're playing with a better team or playing against a better team and it has nothing to do with any kind of "big game" or "post season" ability?

What's the functional difference in coaching postseason games vs regular season games?
