Georgia is a week removed from their season coming to an end. Some fans however haven't slowed down when it comes to voicing their displeasure with offensive coordinator Mike Bobo.

Coaches will always have to deal with hate after losing, especially when the loss ends Georgia's season. Former Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray however came to Bobo's defense and called out those hoping Bobo will be fired.

“Name me three other offenses that were better than Georgia this year in the SEC,” Murray said via ugafootballlive.com. “They’re top five in the conference, they held the team together for the first part of the season. And it just seemed like no matter what—like that Tennessee game, people were frustrated with the offense. It’s like, you scored 47 points! It’s just Bobo, man. It’s just unfortunate that there’s this disdain for him from not everyone, but from a large portion.”

Mike Bobo has a new person in his corner

Bobo didn't call the best game agaisnt Ole Miss. Sure Georgia still scored a good amount of points, but there were certain decisions he made that ended up costing Georgia the game. A few bad calls however shouldn't be the reason a coach gets fired.

Georgia had one of the best offenses this season, and this came behind a quarterback in his first year as a starter. Not only did Bobo transform Georgia's offense into one of the best units in the country, but he also helped them win their second straight SEC Championship. Sure the goal at Georgia is to win National Championships, but winning the SEC still deserves to be celebrated.

Bobo does deserve some heat for certain decisions he made against Ole Miss, but he does not deserve to be fired. And the good news is that Kirby Smart does not plan on letting him go anytime soon.
