Well, the difference so far is the kicking game.

Georgia made a field goal and an extra point; Auburn missed a field goal and bobbled a hold on its only extra point attempt.

If that’s why the Tigers lose this game, they’re going to be kicking themselves (yes, the pun was intended).

Some thoughts:

Georgia should be way ahead in this game. Here’s the yardage so far: Georgia 293, Auburn 128.

That’s not a typo, the Tigers had minus-6 yards in the third quarter.

The Bulldogs seem to find a way to stop themselves on every drive, whether it’s a penalty, a missed pass on a third down or whatever. Something’s just slightly off with this offense today.

Nice game so far by Auburn CB Walter McFadden. He successfully defended a fade pattern to the end zone in the first quarter and blanketed A.J. Green on a fourth-down pass on Georgia’s first drive of the third quarter.

Interesting end to the quarter, with the Tigers sneaking it with Kodi Burns on 4th-and-1 from their own 19-yard line. The big gamble paid off. We'll see if it matters in the long run.
