Unranked Auburn defeats No. 1 Georgia 27-24 at home on a game-winning 34-yard field goal as time expires. Multiple outlets report that Georgia blew a late lead after turning the ball over, including a crucial fumble by Gunner Stockton with 58 seconds remaining. The turnover gives Auburn the final opportunity, which ends with Alex McPherson’s kick.
Reports agree Auburn’s offense is driven by quarterback Byrum Brown and a strong rushing attack that helps Auburn control the game. Georgia is described as having multiple turnovers overall, with one outlet highlighting three total turnovers. Several stories also characterize the result as an unusually rare upset, noting that a top-ranked team has fallen to an unranked opponent for a second straight week, and referencing a long span since a similar “wild” finish occurred.
