How is it even possible to get 14k gold in a 17:41 game in summoners rift?

Apparently our kog got 14.4k total gold. Meanwhile I was afk farming the whole 15 minute laning phase, solo killed yasuo once, got a few assists pressing e on kog'maw, and only ended with 7.5k gold.

Triumph, more farm and kills (like, a ton more), and possible turret takedowns.

actually, it's probably just the kills. You had 1 kill. He had 23

Won't having many kills have diminishing returns since the enemy will be worth less gold? I have never seen someone have more than 800 GPM even if absurdly fed.

Kog had less than 800 gpm. Kill gold value is reset if the enemy got a kill. Or Kog didn't kill the same champs more than 5-6 times, so the value wasn't rock bottom yet.

the enemy gold value only diminishes down to a base of 50 if they repeatedly get killed in a row. if they score a kill, its reset back to 300g for them being taken down. the reason they decided this was to lower the effectiveness of feeding.

you also have to take into account if he took turrets (plus first tower), counter jungled, and how high a priority target his kills were

What was the kog's farm rate (cs per minute), and was it a ranked game?
