The McGee graph requires at least eight crossings in any drawing of it in the plane. It is one of three non-isomorphic graphs tied for being the smallest cubic graph that requires eight crossings. Another of these three graphs is the

The automorphism group of the McGee graph is of order 32 and doesn't act transitively upon its vertices: there are two vertex orbits, of lengths 8 and 16. The McGee graph is the smallest cubic cage that is not a

First discovered by Sachs but unpublished, the graph is named after McGee who published the result in 1960. Then, the McGee graph was proven the unique (3,7)-cage by Tutte in 1966.
