With Georgia's No. 1 ranking on the line, Brock Bowers caught a 40-yard touchdown pass from Carson Beck in the final minutes of a 27-20 win over Auburn.
Georgia defensive back Daylen Everette breaks up a pass intended for Auburn wide receiver Shane Hooks during the first half of an NCAA football game, Saturday, Sept. 30, 2023, in Auburn, Ala. With Georgia’s No. 1 ranking and lengthy winning streak on the line, Brock Bowers caught a 40-yard touchdown pass from Carson Beck in the final minutes of a 27-20 win over Auburn on Saturday.
Georgia coach Kirby Smart called his Bulldogs “a very resilient team” after escaping successfully from their first road game. That’s kind of a Catch-22 for the two-time defending national champions. Auburn, which led 10-0 after the first quarter, had tied it on Alex McPherson’s 42-yard field goal with 10:57 left. It left the Tigers and new coach Hugh Freeze with hopes of their fourth straight win over a No. 1 team in Jordan-Hare Stadium.
“Really proud of our kids, but it hurts in there right now,” Freeze said. “It really hurts. And that’s good to see.”
