GREENSBORO, N.C. (theACC.com) – Conference Player of the Year Lamar Jackson of Louisville leads the 2016 All-ACC Football Team, as selected by the league’s 14 head coaches.
Jackson, the sophomore quarterback who has landed a spot as a finalist for the Heisman Trophy and numerous other national awards, was also voted the ACC Offensive Player of the Year.
Jackson concluded the regular season holding the Louisville school record with 4,928 yards of total offense and is responsible for an ACC single-season record 51 total touchdowns (30 passing, 21 rushing). He set the ACC record for rushing yards by a quarterback in one season with 1,538, and his 21 rushing touchdowns are also the most in a single season by an ACC signal-caller.
The Pompano Beach, Florida, native shattered Louisville’s single-season record for rushing yards in a season, and his eight 100-yard rushing games also broke a school record. As a passer, Jackson has thrown for 3,390 yards and 30 touchdowns, including 417 yards in a win on the road at Marshall on September 24. He amassed an amazing ACC-record 610 total yards in a win over Syracuse, a game in which he came within one rushing yard of becoming the first player in FBS history to pass for 400 yards and rush for 200 yards in the same game.
Jackson, who led the Cardinals to nine wins and a share of the ACC Atlantic Division championship, was named the Walter Camp Offensive Player of the Week on three occasions and was honored three times as the Atlantic Coast Conference Offensive Back of the Week.
