ATLANTA (Ticker) -- Reggie Ball and Georgia Tech are bowl-bound again.

Ball threw for two touchdowns and rushed for another to lead the Yellow Jackets to a 30-17 Atlantic Coast Conference victory over Wake Forest.

With its second straight win since a two-game slide, Georgia Tech (6-2, 4-2 ACC Coastal) qualified for its ninth straight bowl game. The school was one of just eight teams in the country to play in a bowl game each of the last eight seasons.

Ball, who completed 12-of-27 passes for 200 yards, capped the Yellow Jackets' opening drive with a one-yard TD run, giving Georgia Tech the lead for good.

The MVP of the 2004 Champs Sports Bowl finished a 72-yard drive early in the second quarter with an eight-yard TD pass to James Johnson and opened the second half with a three-yard strike to Calvin Johnson to make it 24-3.

P.J. Daniels ran 18 times for 117 yards and Travis Bell hit three field goals longer than 40 yards as the Yellow Jackets topped the Demon Deacons for the eighth time in the last 10 meetings.

Cory Randolph was 19-of-33 for 160 yards and one touchdown with an interception for Wake Forest (4-6, 3-4 ACC Atlantic). Senior Chris Barclay ran 15 times for just 24 yards but managed to surpass the 1,000-yard mark for the third straight season.
