Pitt linebacker SirVocea Dennis played a key role in Pitt’s 30-23 win over North Carolina at Heinz Field last Thursday, and on Monday, he was named the ACC Linebacker of the Week.
Last Thursday, Dennis came up with 10 total tackles, including three tackles for losses and a sack of Tar Heels quarterback Sam Howell. That sack came on North Carolina’s first drive and helped set the tone for the game.
On that play, Dennis burst through the North Carolina offensive line untouched on a delayed pass rush and took down Howell in his own end zone.
