Trubisky Named To National QB Lists Again
October 3, 2016 | Football
For the second straight week, North Carolina quarterback Mitch Trubisky was named to a pair of national quarterback lists. The Mentor, Ohio, junior was named to the Davey O'Brien "Great 8" list as well as earning a spot as one of the Manning Award's eight Stars of the Week.
Trubisky completed 31 of 38 pass attempts for 405 yards in a 37-35 win at No. 12 Florida State. He passed for three touchdowns and scored on a 4-yard touchdown run as UNC snapped Florida State's 22-game home win streak. After FSU tied the game at 28, Trubisky calmly led the Tar Heels on a 7-play, 75-yard touchdown drive, capped by a 34-yard scoring pass to Thomas Jackson. Trubisky was 5 for 5 on that drive for 84 yards.
Trubisky increased his streak of consecutive pass attempts without an interception to 240 and he set a school record for most passing yards in the three consecutive games with 1,290.
