Florida State didn’t have a lot to show for its 2018 football season, but one player was honored as a first-team All-ACC selection.

Junior defensive end Brian Burns earned that distinction with 52 total tackles and team-leading marks of 10 sacks, 15.5 tackles for loss and three forced fumbles. Burns ranked in the top 10 in the ACC in each of those three categories.

Garnering third-team honors were wide receiver Nyqwan Murray and defensive tackle Demarcus Christmas – both seniors. Murray led the team with 54 receptions for 744 yards to go with three touchdowns. Christmas finished the year with 28 tackles, including three for loss.

Sophomore defensive tackle Marvin Wilson and redshirt freshman Tamorrion Terry each earned All-ACC honorable mention. Terry failed to make the top three teams despite leading the conference in yards per catch and being tied for the ACC lead with eight touchdown catches.
