After scoring touchdowns in Syracuse’s 21-6 win over Boston College on Saturday, both Sean Tucker and Courtney Jackson collected Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Week awards on Monday. Tucker was named ACC Running Back of the Week and Jackson was named Specialist of the Week.

Tucker recorded a career-high 207 rushing yards against BC, and he scored on a 51-yard run in the third quarter, giving SU a 7-6 lead. The Maryland native leads the ACC — and the entire Football Bowl Subdivision — in rushing yards with 1,267, and he has had only one game without at least 100 rushing yards this season.
