Of the Georgia Tech team, the first national champion from the South and for many years considered the greatest football team the South ever produced, whose closest game was a 32 to 10 victory over Davidson, King said “I consider Georgia Tech the best football team I have ever played against or ever expect to play against.” One description reads "King's catch of a pass in the Georgia Tech game, with a gallop for a touchdown, was almost miraculous". King participated in one of the great upsets in Southern football history as the Wildcats bested the Auburn Tigers 21–7.
