Death, taxes, and the Auburn Tigers complaining about the officials. After a 3-0 start, including a strong road win over the Baylor Bears in Waco in the non-conference, Auburn has lost three in a row, all in SEC play. Tigers head coach Hugh Freeze is very much on the hot seat at the halfway point. Auburn was up 10-0 and about to make it 17-0 right before Jackson Arnold’s controversial fumble…
The play resulted in Georgia knocking the ball out right before the goal line. Gunner Stockton and the Georgia offense ended up kicking a field goal to make it 10-3 heading into halftime. Freeze had no answers for what happened heading into the half. His team shriveled up and got worked in the second half. Georgia ended up winning 20-10 to ruin Cam Newton’s special evening at Jordan-Hare Stadium.
Noted officiating expert Terry McAulay would go on to admit that this was the right call in the end…
