RALEIGH, N.C. – #5 Clemson scored a 55-10 road win over the Wolfpack at Carter-Finley Stadium.
Â
The Tigers (10-0, 7-0 ACC) held a 42-0 lead at the half over the Pack (4-5, 1-4).
Â
NC State got on the scoreboard on the first possession of the second half, as RB Zonovan Knight galloped in from 53 yards out to cap a 5-play, 75-yard drive.
Â
Knight finished with a career-best 139 yards on 12 carries. QB Devin Leary was 14-of-29 for 166 yards.
