After running for 102 yards and three touchdowns in his collegiate debut on Saturday, Syracuse freshman running back Shavane Anderson Jr. was named the ACC's Rookie of the Week for his performance against New Hampshire on Tuesday.

In addition to his weekly honor, Anderson made league history, at least of the last 20 years, by becoming the first true ACC freshman to run for 100 yards or more and score three touchdowns or more in their first game.

A York, Penn. native, Anderson was a three-star recruit coming out of high school. He was a First-Team All-State selection in Pennsylvania. He led the Orange in rushing in Saturday's 66-3 win. The team had 238 yards on the ground, putting together a dominant all-around game.

There are some real decisions for head coach Fran Brown and his staff to make. After a performance like this, it's almost impossible to see Anderson seeing a reduction in his role, but the Orange also have Tylik Hill, who started Saturday and carried 15 times for 90 yards. On top of that, transfers Ahmad Miller and Ju'juan Johnson were expected to play big roles for this team, but neither played on Saturday. They will likely factor in at some point, making those decisions even harder for Brown and Co.

The Orange are back in action on Saturday afternoon at home against Cal to open up ACC play. The Golden Bears lost their opener against UCLA 45-24.

Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. ET and we'll have live coverage from the JMA Wireless Dome.

Speaking on Monday at his weekly news conference, Brown had some interesting injury updates on freshmen standouts Calvin Russell III and Tedarius Hughes.

As noted by Chris Carlson of Syracuse.com, Brown said that he thinks Russell is just a few weeks away from playing despite tearing his Achilles tendon in March. This is in line with what Brown estimated back in early April about a possible return to play for Russell, who was injured during spring practice.

Typically, that is an injury that requires close to a full year of recovery from, but Russell might make it back in six or seven months. Remember, Syracuse quarterback Steve Angeli tore his Achilles in September of last season, and we weren't even sure he was 100 percent until the summer. 

A wide receiver, Russell is one of the top recruits in program history. He was rated as a five-star prospect out of Florida. Hughes played with Russell in high school. He was a top safety recruit.

Because of the NCAA's new "age-based eligibility model," there are no more redshirts. So, if and when players are healthy, they should be out on the field.

Hughes has battled a knee issue.
