College football fans call for Power 5 coach to be fired
By Adam Spencer

College football fans have seen enough of the Geoff Collins era at Georgia Tech.
After the Yellow Jackets trailed Ole Miss 42-0 heading into the fourth quarter, en route to a loss by that same score, reaction was swift and fierce on social media.
Georgia Tech fell to 1-2 on the season with the loss on Saturday in Atlanta, and that has fans wondering who the next head coach of the Yellow Jackets will be.
As you can see below, Collins wasn’t getting much love on social media during the latter stages of the blowout loss:

Not that it's a surprise, but GA Tech getting boat raced by Ole Miss brings up the question: How much longer does Geoff Collins get? End of the season? After the Duke game (before their week off)? Is there a chance they Scott Frost him tonight or tomorrow?

This performance might accelerate a coaching change. The bad part of this is I believe GT really was Geoff Collins dream job and he probably got it before he was really ready for it.

So what’s next for Geoff Collins? Because he’s definitely not surviving this season, right?

Georgia Tech will soon be in a coaching search. Geoff Collins is on his last days.
Ole Miss has eclipsed 300 yards rushing today and leads 42-0 to start the fourth quarter.

Geoff Collins’s shirts are terrible. He does not make good choices in all aspects of life, it seems.

Geoff Collins cannot have a job by this time tomorrow. He's been given 4 years, and the product on the field has arguably gotten worse each year. https://t.co/CsZJAdwUEz

It is officially the darkest hour in Tech football history.
42-0 Ole Miss and 3rd quarter is not over.
Combine this game with ND, Georgia, and Clemson.
I don’t believe Geoff Collins coaches next week against UCF.
It’s over.— steakshapiro (@steakshapiro) September 17, 2022
Geoff Collins don’t get fired challenge (impossible)

Will we see a change at head coach at Georgia Tech after this showing? It’ll be costly, as Collins’ buyout is reportedly more than $10 million at the moment.
We’ll see how much the program’s boosters want to make a change.
