ATLANTA (AP) - Reggie Ball has a way of bouncing back from his lowest moments.

He'll certainly need those powers of recovery on Saturday.

The Georgia Tech quarterback is coming off a miserable performance against Georgia, but he doesn't have long to fret about it. The No. 23 Yellow Jackets (9-3) are facing 16th-ranked Wake Forest in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game, with the winner claiming a spot in the Orange Bowl.

``He'll come back strong,'' teammate Calvin Johnson predicted. ``We have a tough game coming up. We know Reggie is not going to let it bother him at all.''

Clearly, Ball has a lot of forgetting to do.

Last week, the senior looked like a raw freshman in the 48th start of his career, completing just 6-of-22 passes for 42 yards in a 15-12 loss to Georgia Tech's most bitter rival. As if that wasn't bad enough, he was intercepted twice and coughed up a fumble that was returned for Georgia's first touchdown.

``Reggie! Reggie! Reggie!'' the Georgia crowd chanted derisively.

But Ball has been through this sort of thing before during an up-and-down career. As a freshman, he was picked off three times in a blowout loss to lowly Duke - the Blue Devils' first ACC win in four years - but he rebounded the following week with three touchdown passes to beat North Carolina.

Yeh he didnt prove anything at all. If you take Calvin Johnson away from this offense, they would not have been in the ACC Championship game.

I think he really proved a lot. He proved he will be playing at the next level, probably as a 6th WR and special teamer. He porved he is one of the most inconsistant QBs in recent memory.
