RECEIVER – Cornell Powell, Clemson, Sr., WR, Greenville, N.C.

Quinney helped pave the way for Georgia Tech to rush for 377 yards in Tech’s 56-33 win over Duke • The Yellow Jackets had their highest rushing- and total-yardage (523 yards) outputs since 2018 at North Carolina • Behind the Quinney-led offensive front, Georgia Tech had three players with at least 90 rushing yards (Jeff Sims – 108, Jordan Mason – 105 and Jahmyr Gibbs – 91) and four with at least 60 yards on the ground (including Dontae Smith – 60) • Quinney delivered key blocks on each of the Yellow Jackets’ four touchdown runs, all of which went for 20 yards or more (61 and 22 yards by Gibbs and 36 and 22 yards by Smith).
CO-OFFENSIVE LINEMAN – Liam Eichenberg, Notre Dame, Gr., LT, Cleveland, Ohio
Led an offensive line that paved the way for 478 yards of total offense (199 rushing with three touchdowns, 279 passing with one touchdown) and 35:04 time of possession in a 31-17 win over No. 19 North Carolina • The Fighting Irish have now won the time of possession battle in eight of nine games this season and average 34:12 per game, which continues to lead the ACC by more than two minutes per game, and ranks 10th among all FBS teams • The Irish posted four touchdown drives of at least 75 yards Friday, including a season-long 97-yard scoring drive.

LINEBACKER – Payton Wilson, NC State, So., LB, Hillsborough, N.C.
Key factor behind the Wolfpack holding Syracuse to just three rushing yards - the lowest opponent total in a game since 2015 and the lowest in an ACC contest since 2011 • The Orange had just 257 yards of total offense • Led the Wolfpack in tackles with 10, including eight solo stops • Made arguably the biggest play of the game in the final seconds when he sacked the QB for an 11-yard loss • Wilson is the league's leading tackler with 10.8 stops per game, which ranks 17th in the FBS.
