What happened

ESPN RECAP

Bailey's career-high 373 yards passing, 2 TDs lead NC State past Louisville 31-28

RALEIGH, N.C. -- , CJ Bailey threw for a career-high 373 yards and two touchdowns as N.C. State held on to beat Louisville 31-28 on Saturday. The Wolfpack (3-2, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) have won two straight since a stunning last-second loss to Vanderbilt . “It means a lot that I brought my best to this game today,” Bailey said. “I told my guys that I had them. I believe in them, and they believe in me. I just went to work today.” Kanoah Vinesett’s 28-yard field goal with 5:30 left spelled the difference for the Wolfpack, who piled up 493 total yards. Joshisa Trader led N.C. State with 92 yards on five catches, while Tyran Warren contributed a 34-yard touchdown grab. “CJ played a hell of a football game,” N.C. State coach Dave Doeren said.
