GREENSBORO -- North Carolina cornerback Kendric Burney earned an award from the ACC after breaking one of the league's records.

Burney on Monday was named one of the ACC's weekly award winners along with Clemson's C.J. Spiller, Georgia Tech's Cord Howard and Ben Anderson, Tar Heels teammate Casey Barth and Florida State's E.J. Manuel.

Burney had three interceptions and broke a 29-year-old conference record with 170 interception return yards, including a 77-yard touchdown, in North Carolina's 33-24 win against Miami. His third interception of the game was returned 46 yards before he lost a fumble to teammate Melvin Williams, who dashed 44 yards for another score.
