A little behind on this since it was announced on Monday, but Pitt continued to receive recognition for ACC Player of the Week honors.
The Panthers won on Homecoming against Virginia and had a few players draw notice for their efforts. True freshman safety Jordan Whitehead continues to impress and was named the ACC's Rookie of the Week. Whitehead had a game-high 12 tackles (seven solo) and actually leads the team with 41 on the year.
Linebacker Matt Galambos had a big game as well and was recognized as the linebacker of the week. He had two sacks and the big interception, which Chris named as this week's Turning Point of the Game.
