Game Story
AUBURN, Alabama (Ticker) -- A career day for Michael Johnson
ended in storybook fashion.

Johnson caught a 19-yard touchdown pass on fourth down with 1:25
remaining as seventh-ranked Georgia clinched the Southeastern
Conference East Division title with a dramatic 24-21 victory
over Auburn.

The junior wide receiver had 13 receptions for 141 yards but
none was bigger than his last one. He wrestled the ball away
from cornerback Horace Willis and made a leaping grab in the
left corner of the end zone.

"I am just glad I had the opportunity to get in the ballgame,"
Johnson said. "My team had faith in me and I came out with the
ball on the last play."

"I was going to Michael the whole time," quarterback David
Greene said. "I pump-faked because there was an Auburn player in
my face, and I threw it up. Michael just went up and got it."

Had Auburn held on for the win, Florida would have had a chance
to win capture the SEC East with a win over South Carolina on
Saturday night.

Georgia (10-1, 7-1), which rallied from a 21-10 deficit in the
second half, will have an opportunity to claim its first SEC
title since 1982 when it plays in the conference championship
game in Atlanta on December 7.
