The NC State Wolfpack will hit the road in a Week 4 ACC matchup to face the No. 21 Clemson Tigers at Memorial Stadium in Clemson, South Carolina. The NC State Wolfpack will come into this matchup with a 2-1 record after beating Western Carolina and Louisiana Tech.

Former five-star recruit CJ Bailey earned the starting job against Clemson (1-1) after graduate transfer Grayson McCall sustained an injury last week. Bailey’s start puts him among elite company. Former All-American and NFL Hall of Famer Philip Rivers is the most recent rookie to earn the nod for the Wolfpack.

N.C. State finally found the end zone in the second quarter when running back Jordan Waters caught a 5-yard pass from CJ Bailey. Clemson committed a 15-yard face mask penalty five plays earlier at the 50-yard line to continue the Wolfpack’s scoring drive.
