Game Summary

The Auburn Tigers defeated the Georgia Bulldogs 27-24 on October 17, 2026, at Sanford Stadium in Athens. Alex McPherson made a 34-yard field goal as time expired to beat the nation's No. 1 team.

Georgia opened a 14-0 lead before Auburn answered with 24 consecutive points. The Tigers led 17-14 at halftime and began the second half with a 9-play, 76-yard touchdown drive.

The Bulldogs recovered from that stretch and tied the score at 24 with 2:58 remaining. Auburn then escaped a second-and-20 situation at its own 7-yard line before eventually punting.

The decisive opportunity came when Cody Sigler forced a fumble. Sylvester Smith-Reed recovered the ball at Auburn's 44-yard line. The Tigers advanced to Georgia's 19 before McPherson delivered the winning kick.

Auburn quarterback Byrum Brown finished with 150 passing yards and 115 rushing yards. Georgia quarterback Gunner Stockton passed for 272 yards. The Tigers' final possession settled a rivalry game that had swung from Georgia's early control to Auburn's comeback.
