[I]It was a record-breaking season across the ACC in 2016, with a number of records being tied or broken. Here are some of the more notable records that were set at the FBS, ACC, and school levels – with an added section for one particularly special player and a handful of records that are still in danger of falling.[/I]

[*]Pitt vs. Syracuse: Most combined points in regulation in FBS history
[/LIST]
The Panthers and Orange combined for an insane 137 points in Pitt’s 76-61 win, breaking the previous record of 136 points set by Navy and North Texas in 2007. The two teams combined for an unreal 20 touchdowns and 1,312 total yards.

[*]Amba Etta-Tawo: Touchdown Receptions in a Game
[/LIST]
In the record-setting 76-61 Pitt win over Syracuse, Orange wide receiver Amba Etta-Tawo made some history of his own. The senior caught 13 passes for 178 and five touchdowns, tying Torry Holt’s ACC record for TD receptions in a single game. Etta-Tawo won’t get the chance to add to his phenomenal senior season in a bowl game, but will get one last chance to shine on the college level in January’s Senior Bowl.

[*]Sean Riley: Single-Season Kickoff Returns
[/LIST]
Talk about an instant impact player – Syracuse true-freshman wide receiver Sean Riley set a new ACC record with 53 kickoff returns this season. Riley’s 53 returns netted a total of 1,095 yards, good for third most in a single season in ACC history.
