UNC running back Elijah Hood was named Atlantic Coast Conference Offensive Back of the Week for his performance in a victory against North Carolina State on Saturday, the conference announced on Monday.

Hood rushed for 220 yards on 21 carries and scored two touchdowns, helping the Tar Heels to a 45-34 victory over the Wolfpack.

This marked the first time Hood eclipsed a 200-yard rushing total at UNC and his seventh game over 100 yards this season. Hood is the first UNC running back to rush for more than 200 yards in a single game since Giovani Bernard had 262 vs. Virginia Tech in 2012.

Carolina has won 11 straight games to finish off the regular season with the lone loss coming in the season-opener to South Carolina.

The eighth-ranked Tar Heels will face off with number one Clemson on Saturday in the Dr. Pepper ACC Football Championship Game in Charlotte at Bank of America Stadium.
