Georgia football program raves about Mike Bobo: ‘I just love having him around’
For as much hand-wringing as there was this offseason about replacing former offensive coordinator Todd Monken, Mike Bobo has proven plenty capable of guiding Georgia’s offense.
Comments
Prior to the season, I was very down on Mike Bobo, and maybe justifiably so. I remembered his lack of imagination in play calling in the Mark Richt years. But I have to say, I was wrong about this year. He really has done a good job of play calling and managing the offense. You have to give credit when credit is due.
Mike Bobo is doing great!
That hand-wringing mostly by or fueled by the media during the off-season; not studying Bobo's numbers and personnel the last few years under Richt. So I think apologies definitely in order though this not exactly what I'm calling admitting fault.
Did TN tell Mizzou they were second in sacks and defense before that game? Guess not. Mizzou ate their defense alive. So will UGA. I believe TN will get called on many infractions. Their hate for UGA will beat them. Watch.
Bobo was recognized as a semifinalist for the Broyles Award, given annually to the nation’s top assistant coach. Well deserved!
I totally agree with Smart; Bobo and his staff have done an exceptional job of adjusting to so many injuries/starters missing games. How many offenses could lose a player like Brock Bowers and not miss a beat? Great job...
There have been times this season when I scratched my head at some of the play calling. But no more and probably less than I did when Monken was OC. But they are executing CKS's offensive game plan.
So UGA is 6th in PPG and 5th in YPG. Would've been interesting to see where UGA ranks in time of possession. UGA is not a quick strike O. And the number of possessions/team/game are down due to the new clock rules. Making it imperative, going forward, to not digging a hole that has to be rallied from.
Neither Bama nor tOSU apparently.....!
Go Dawgs!
About 3 weeks ago...the preliminary results of an impact study, regarding the new "clock rules", was released. According to the study...there was 4.5 fewer plays per game. I'd be curious to see the final numbers at the end of the season. It doesn't appear to have that great an impact (so-far) on game-time.
That being said...[with respect to televised games]...I have noticed a tremendous increase in "Commercials" and a lot fewer replays and play breakdowns from the Booth.
I was watching 4 games on multi-view last Saturday...and noticed that 3 of the 4 games, were on a "Commercial Break" at any given time. That's when i realized how much advertising time we are granting these providers...to sell us stuff. Very little "actual gametime".
i think money and advertising is the main reason for the "clock rule changes". Less gametime...means more time for Commercials. If that's NOT the reason...then games should be lasting 2.5 hours...NOT 3 hours. They think they're slick.
Maybe...some of these variations are due to fast paced offenses that are being used to mitigate the clock effect.
Mike Bobo has always been a blessing to UGA since his playing days. He loves UGA and UGA loves him. He's living the life, a star as a player, a star as a coach, the OC to the best team in college football, and he gets to live in the Classic City of Athens, GA with his family. What a blessing for UGA. GO DAWGS!!!
I expect to see Tennessee take cheap shots as their frustration grows due to Bobo's schemes and our execution to exploit The Vol weaknesses . Josh Hoople, thinking he has Home cooking ref's will think he'll get away with anything if it leads to a win. Tennessee does not come close to matching our talent, execution and sure as hell no where close to our coaching.....a two TD lead will get the Vol Faithful hitting the gates headed home.
Amen, Brother. I'm so proud of those boys. Mike Bobo [& Son], Will Muschamp [& Son], Kirby Smart, Bryan McClendon, Mike Cavan...and all the other former Dawgs that contribute to their Alma Mater and Football Program.
That goes for all the other UGA Athletic Programs, as well....right?...Dominique Wilkins? Lol...he contributed a Son to the down-but-not-out Bulldog Basketball Program.
Go Dawgs!!! The Junkyard Brotherhood...it's what's for life!
I always dread these trips to Tenn - that field is the worst! I would hate it if any of our players had season ending injuries right before the SEC Championship game because of that sorry turf. Knee, ankle injuries are the main thing I am worried about. Once this game is out of hand, take the starters out.
Yep. Agree. And it’s very rare to see Em bring out the chain gang to verify a first down. They still do but it seems very rare. Where it used to be if there was any doubt about the spot here would come the chain gang. The commercials drive me even crazier than I already am !! 😂
Mike Bobo is a human being. There for like all humans he makes mistakes. I’ve made plenty and then some added to plenty !! But in my humble view he has done an Excellent job. Especially when considering all the injuries And the timing of those injuries.
So he’s not only done a fine job play calling in the booth, but also coaching in practices, and with roster management. Again he Will make mistakes from time to time as we All do. But the Good he does vastly outweighs the bad.
Bobo is in his element now being back at UGA. He’s a Winner now. And he has and will continue to help make our Dawgs winners !! Go Dawgs !!
