A Deserving Record For Sam Howell

Posted Nov 24, 2019
Sam Howell finished with three touchdown passes Saturday, bringing his season total to 32. Those are the most by a true freshman in FBS history, surpassing Trevor Lawrence's 30 for Clemson last season. What Howell has done isn't just impressive for a freshman, though. Howell is only the 7th player in ACC history to throw at least 32 touchdowns in a season. (GoHeels.com)
