Here is the weekend review:

Weekend Ball: Demario Minter, Georgia cornerback. He shut down Calvin Johnson all game long and which was a large part of why Georgia Tech only scored 7 points. This was a defensive battle, and nobody on the field played better than Minter. Georgia won 14-7.

Weekend Goat: Time. Unfortunately the long weekend has ended and time has caught up with us. The work week begins anew tomorrow.

Quote you never thought you'd hear: "I worked out so hard I had to lay down in the Trainers' room" --Jeff Hughes, after his first workout session at LA Fitness with his new trainer.
