ATLANTA, Georgia - A happy homecoming wasn't the only return for Justin Babb at the HBCU All-Star Bowl. Atlanta, GA (Sports Network) - A happy homecoming wasn't the only return for Justin Babb at the HBCU All-Star Bowl.

Babb's 100-yard return of a failed field-goal attempt fueled the East All- Stars to a 23-13 victory over the West All-Stars on Saturday.
