Georgia defense missed 'eraser' KJ Bolden as Auburn, Byrum Brown proved tough to handle

Auburn secured a 27-24 upset victory over top-ranked Georgia, fueled by a 24-point unanswered surge led by quarterback Byrum Brown. Brown accounted for 150 passing yards and a touchdown while adding 115 rushing yards, becoming the first quarterback to eclipse the century mark on the ground against an AP No.

1 team since 2005. Georgia struggled defensively, recording 15 missed tackles and allowing a season-high 366 total yards, notably missing the presence of injured safety KJ Bolden.

Bulldogs coach Kirby Smart noted that while replacements like Ja'Marley Riddle filled in, the team was undone by two specific big plays, including a trick pass from Chris Neptune to Keshaun Singleton and a one-handed grab by Chris Nimrod.
