Murray's arm was calibrated to perfection, firing to the proper coordinates on 14 of 18 passes with four touchdowns to four different receivers in a 45-7 rout over Auburn. The machine-like display easily extended Murray's lead as the most efficient passer in the SEC, and left him with a new school record for touchdown passes in a season (27).

The 38-point win was also the most lopsided in the series by either side since 1946, and put UGA within a game of its first division title since 2005.
