The two-point safety on the ensuing punt proved to be the margin of victory. Georgia Tech thus claims a national championship. The Florida Gators led the nation in scoring with 336 points, but had their undefeated campaign derailed in the final game by the South's biggest upset that season, a controversial loss to Tennessee. Tulane back Bill Banker led the conference in individual scoring with 128 points, tying a school record set by Peggy Flournoy in 1925 which was unbroken until 2007 by Matt Forte. (en)
