On This Date: 2004 Clemson- 26 NC State- 20

Death Valley, SC

Clemson 26, N.C. State 20





CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) -- Clemson forced six turnovers and made one
last defensive stand in the waning moments to beat North Carolina
State 26-20 on Saturday.

The Wolfpack (4-4, 3-3 Atlantic Coast Conference) drove the ball
to the Clemson 12 with eight seconds to go. But on fourth-and-10,
Jay Davis threw his fifth interception of the game to defensive end
Charles Bennett as the clock ran out.



Clemson's defense came into the game having forced just six
turnovers all season.

Jad Dean's made all four of his field goals for the Tigers (4-4,
3-3) and ACC leading receiver Aierse Currie had seven receptions
for 108 yards.



N.C. State outgained Clemson 381-267. But mistakes doomed the
Wolfpack, who came into the game ranked 110th out of 117 teams in
turnover margin.



Eric Coleman returned one of Davis' picks 20 yards for a score.
Justin Miller also had two interceptions for Clemson, including one
in the end zone with 3 seconds left in the first half.

The Wolfpack also had two touchdown passes on the same drive
called back for illegal formation penalties.

N.C. State lost one fumble and appeared to have lost the ball
twice more, but the officials called the plays dead.



The win improves Clemson's bowl hopes. The Tigers have to win
two of their last three games at Miami, at Duke and against South
Carolina to become bowl eligible. The Wolfpack also has to win to
of their next three to become bowl eligible. They finish with home
games against Georgia Tech, Florida State and East Carolina.

Clemson's Charlie Whitehurst was 14-of-33 for 183 yards,
continuing what has been a disappointing junior season for a player
who had six 300-yard passing games in his first 17 starts.
