CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) - Kyle Parker threw for 214 yards and a touchdown as Clemson overcame several mistakes to beat No. 23 North Carolina State 14-13 on Saturday. The Tigers (5-4, 3-3 ACC) fumbled five times, losing two of them, threw an interception, had a touchdown called back on a holding penalty and missed two short field goals.
The crowd at Death Valley booed the Tigers several times. But the defense bailed them out, holding the Wolfpack (6-3, 3-2) to 275 yards, dealing a big blow to North Carolina State's hopes to win the ACC's Atlantic Division and keeping the Tigers faint hopes of returning to the title game alive. Wolfpack quarterback Russell Wilson went 22 of 36 for 212 yards and was his team's leading rusher with 29 yards.
