Gramling (7-5, 4-4) had a chance to claw back the lead, but kicker Josh McCormick missed a 43-yard field goal attempt after earlier combining from 52 and 39 yards.
The Tigers had a two-minute lead, but Andre Crews fumbled at the South 38-yard line, where Ckelby Givens fumbled with 32 seconds left for the gain.
South came out of a 14-0 quarter hole and broke free to make it 17-14 for a 51-yard touchdown at 51.
