Georgia football play of the day – Georgia vs Auburn (2013)

It’s Monday, August 31 and today’s play of the day comes from Georgia versus Auburn at Jordan-Hare stadium in 2013.

No. 25 ranked Georgia was considered an underdog in their match up with No. 7 Auburn, who had national title hopes in mind.

Auburn held a 20-point lead early in the fourth quarter before star quarterback Aaron Murray led the Bulldogs to three straight touchdowns to make it 37-31 Auburn.

After a late hold by the Georgia defense, it was Murray and the Bulldogs final chance to secure a comeback win.

Georgia marched down the field to the Tigers’ 5 yard line where they faced a fourth and goal with 1:56 remaining.

Watch what happened next:

One of the most clutch plays in Georgia football history that, unfortunately, gets overlooked because of Auburn’s miracle game-winning pass that answered this legendary score by Murray.

Regardless, Murray finished with 415 yards passing with 3 total touchdowns and an interception in one of the most impressive performances of his great career in Athens.
