RALEIGH, N.C. — No. 9 Clemson was stunned in double overtime at NC State after the Tigers went down 27-21 to the Wolfpack in ACC play at Carter-Finley Stadium here in Raleigh, NC, on Saturday.
Both teams went toe-to-toe to the four quarters, but the scores were locked at 14-14 at the end of regulation time.
Clemson (2-2) took the advantage in the first overtime possession when Justyn Ross collected from nine yards from D.J. Uiagalelei, but NC State (3-1) tied the scores at 21-21 when Devin Leary found Thayer Thomas with a two-yard and the extra point was also successful.
