QUICK LANE BOWL

Minnesota 34, Georgia Tech 10

DETROIT

Mohamed Ibrahim ran for career-high 224 yards and two touchdowns, leading Minnesota to a victory over Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets (7-6) did not have the speed or strength to slow down Ibrahim and the Golden Gophers’ (7-6) triple-option offense was stunted in coach Paul Johnson’s finale. The Gophers limited Georgia Tech to 206 yards on the ground. Minnesota led 13-0 early in the second quarter. Ibrahim’s 3-yard touchdown run midway through the third quarter made it 20-3. The Yellow Jackets responded with Nathan Cottrell’s 20-yard touchdown run, but their defense allowed Ibrahim to score again on the ensuing drive.

The game was stopped with Boston College leading 7-0 with 5:08 remaining in the first quarter at Cotton Bowl Stadium. The delay came shortly after AJ Dillon ran 19 yards for a touchdown.
