It’s Thursday, August 6 and today’s play of the day comes Georgia at Auburn in 2002 – the same Georgia squad that claimed an SEC Championship and Sugar Bowl victory in the same year.
Before the Bulldogs secured the 13th SEC title in school history, they faced a tough No. 24 Auburn team at Jordan-Hare Stadium, who, with 1:25 remaining, held a 4-point lead over the No. 7 Bulldogs with a shot to play in the SEC Championship game on the line.
Here’s what happened next – narrated by the legendary Larry Munson.
“We jump up, touchdown!”
The Bulldogs would go on to win 24-21, led by receiver Michael Johnson’s 13 catches for 141 yards and one game-winning touchdown.
