The honor is the latest for Bain, who was the 2023 ACC Defensive Rookie of the Year and an all-league honoree earlier in his career.
This marks Bain’s second ACC Defensive Lineman of the Week honor of his career, as he was previously recognized for his contributions during Miami’s double overtime win over Clemson on Oct. 21, 2023, when he posted a career-high eight tackles, including two solo sacks totaling 13 yards, in the victory against the Tigers.
The Hurricanes return to action this week against Bethune-Cookman at Hard Rock Stadium, with the matchup slated to begin at 7 p.m.
