Mike Bobo eviscerated for costly playcalls late in game vs. Alabama
Mike Bobo’s first drive of the SEC Championship Game worked out swimmingly for Georgia’s offense. The Bulldogs went 83 yards on 8 plays for the game’s opening touchdown.
Unfortunately, the playcalling has been stagnant at times since then, including on a late touchdown drive against Alabama’s defense. The drive started well, but things slowed down big time near the goal line.
After getting into a 1st-and-goal situation from the 6-yard line, Georgia ran the ball 3 straight times. The Bulldogs did not score and it allowed almost a minute to tick off the clock before Georgia kicked a field goal.
That time was costly with Alabama getting the ensuing kickoff and running out the remaining 2:17 in the game for a 27-24 win. That lack of urgency from Bobo and the Bulldogs drew a swift reaction on social media.
Mike Bobo can’t show his face in Athens ever again

What a disaster by Georgia to have to use a timeout right there. Mike Bobo is atrocious. #SECChampionship

Mike Bobo looks like Auburn Mike Bobo tonight

The refs have been atrocious, don’t get me wrong, but we do not deserve to win this game. This has been a horror show from Mike Bobo (ex: running out of the shotgun on 3rd and 1 repeatedly), and it has dragged us down. He’s a serial choker in big games. #FireBobo #GoDawgs
