Leary’s TD throws lift N.C. State past Louisville 28-13

RALEIGH, N.C. -- , Devin Leary threw three of his four touchdown passes in the fourth quarter as North Carolina State’s offense finally got untracked in a 28-13 win over Louisville on Saturday night. Leary hit Trent Pennix on a 29-yard touchdown pass on the second play of the fourth quarter to push the Wolfpack into the lead. Leary connected with Devin Carter with 5:53 remaining as N.C. State stretched its edge to 21-13. The clinching points came on 10-yard touchdown pass to C.J. Riley with 2:21 to go. “Love the way we finished the game,” N.C. State coach Dave Doeren said. “To be able to pad our lead was awesome down the stretch.” N.C. State (6-2, 3-1 Atlantic Coast Conference), which finished with 44 yards on the ground, had only 189 yards of total offense through three quarters. “Credit to our defense, they played their tails off the entire game,” Leary said.
