It’s no surprise that after providing college football with one of the most exciting moments of the year that Georgia Tech’s Lance Austin was named the ACC Specialist of the Week.
Austin returned a blocked, last-second Florida State field goal attempt 78 yards to lead the Yellow Jackets to a 22-16 stunner over the then-ranked No. 9 Seminoles.
Austin’s teammate, defense back Jamal Golden, was named the conference’s defensive back of the week. Golden picked off an Everett Golson pass in the end zone to thwart an FSU scoring drive and led the Yellow Jackets with nine tackles.
