Game Summary:

The buzz before the game was this would be the last North/South All-Star game. The Georgia/Florida game was being moved to December and the summer all-star game was rumored to be a Georgia/Tennessee matchup which was in the works. The GACA was supposed to make a decision on the matter later in the month. Antonio Jefferson, the South MVP, scored on a 3-yard run and Chad Spencer kicked a 41-yard field goal to give the South a 9-0 lead. Lopez Nunn countered for the North with a 2-yard touchdown run. The North threatened late, but Nunn was stopped short on a fourth-down run with 1:30 left. North MVP Tyson Browning ran or 86 yards on 13 carries and also had a 56-yard reception.
