The North Carolina State Wolfpack missed their third makeable field goal of Saturday at the exact wrong time, but survived anyway with a 27-21 overtime win over the No. 9 Clemson Tigers in Raleigh on Saturday
It was the first Top 10 win for the Wolfpack since 2012, and breaks a streak of 36-straight wins for the Tigers against unranked opponents.
Kicker Christopher Dunn had already missed from
NC State had a chance to put it away, but their kicker had other plans.

NC State was a 10.5-point underdog at DraftKings Sportsbook, and the 14-14 final score in regulation would have been fine with under bettors. But since the extra football counts, the over of 47.5 was breeched.
Wolfpack quarterback Devin Leary played himself right into the national conversation with a 32-44 for 238 yards and four touchdowns performance. The struggles of Trevor Lawrence’s replacement DJ Uiagalelei continue, as he was just 12-26 for 111 yards with two touchdowns and an interception.
