Alternative and independent outlets lead by noting that Georgia, upset at home, remains tied for first in the SEC, and they ask when the Bulldogs play next. Auburn beat No. 1 Georgia 27-24 on Saturday, with Alex McPherson kicking a 34-yard field goal as time expired. Quarterback Byrum Brown's dominant running game led Auburn, while Georgia lost two interceptions and a late fumble.
Left-leaning coverage centers on the upset itself and the wider pattern, noting it was the second straight week a top-ranked AP Top 25 team lost to an unranked opponent, after then-No. 1 Texas fell. Right-leaning coverage, from Daily Wire, questions whether the top ranking is cursed and opens with a personal anecdote about a young fan asking his father about the game. The excerpts offer no reactions from players or coaches, and the only forward-looking point is Yahoo's question about Georgia's next game.
