Auburn knocks off No. 1 Georgia with a last-second field goal after late turnover
The No. 1 team in the country has lost in back-to-back weeks.
Just seven days after taking down No. 6 Alabama to move up to the top spot in the AP Top 25, Georgia QB Gunner Stockton turned the ball over three times as the Tigers got a field goal as time expired for a 27-24 win.
Alex McPherson’s game-winning kick was set up by a Stockton fumble. After the Georgia defense gave the Bulldogs a chance to win, Stockton fumbled the ball after running into the back of center Drew Bobo with 58 seconds to go.

McPherson’s 34-yard kick was also 15 yards shorter than it could have been thanks to Gabe Harris’ roughing the passer penalty on Auburn QB Byrum Brown with 14 seconds to go. It was the third personal foul by a Georgia player.
