Behind a defense that forced four turnovers and didn’t allow a touchdown, North Carolina State is bowl-eligible after beating visiting Miami 20-6 on Saturday night at Carter-Finley Stadium. Devin Boykin sealed the win for N.C. State when he intercepted Miami quarterback Tyler Van Dyke with under four minutes to play.

Devin Boykin sealed the win for N.C. State when he intercepted Miami’s Tyler Van Dyke with under 4 minutes to play. Aydan White, Brandon Cisse and Davin Vann also came up with turnovers for the Wolfpack. Offensively, MJ Morris completed 11-of-21 passes for 123 yards and a touchdown for N.C. State.Johnson runs for 256 yards, 4 TDs in No. 5 Washington’s high-octane 52-42 win over No. 24 USC“It was big for us,” White said of the win. “We definitely just got to keep this momentum going.
In the fourth quarter, Miami turned the ball over downs at the 3, capping a fruitless 12-play drive that chewed more than 7 minutes off the clock. The Wolfpack responded with an eight-play drive that ended with Kendrick Raphael bouncing off a Miami defender on his way to scoring on a 31-yard touchdown run, which pushed the Wolfpack lead to two possessions. Miami’s next two drives ended in interceptions thrown by Van Dyke.
“I think it’s not just pointing the finger at Tyler. I think, offensively, there’s things we need to do better. The passing game certainly hasn’t been what it needs to be,” Cristobal said. “It’s a little bit of everything. We’ve got to coach it better, we got to get our guys to perform better, and we’ve got to design a couple things that might help us see things more clearly.”
