In a bit of a "calm before the storm" week in college football, there were some surprising outcomes and performance that shaped the conference title races. None more than the Pittsburgh Panthers upset of the previously ranked #16 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets sent shockwaves through the ACC standings. The Panthers got a command performance from Ja'Kyrian Turner, a true freshman running back who is surging with experience. Against the Jackets, "Boosie" Turner ran for a career high 201 yards and a touchdown on 21 carries, nearly toting the ball 10 yards per carry. The climax was a spectacular 56 yard run up the middle to put the Panthers ahead by more than a touchdown for good. Pittsburgh doesn't have a great chance to make the ACC title game, but the future is bright with Turner, the Longhorndave Sportsman of the Week!
