Star quarterback DJ Uiagalelei was tremendous for coach Dabo Swinney&#8217;s crew, completing 21 of 30 passes for 209 yards with one touchdown and zero interceptions.  He also added 73 rushing yards and two more scores on the ground. <\/p>\n<p>The game started as a field goal fest, but Uiagalelei took control when he led the Tigers on a furious two-minute drive to end the first halg, giving Clemson much-needed momentum after a very sloppy 30 minutes.  He got great protection on a 26-yard pass to running back Will Shipley out of the backfield to set the Tigers up at the 1-yard line, and Uiagalelei took it in from there to give Clemson a 13-10 lead. <\/p>\n<p>The offensive line kept that momentum in the second half as the Tigers scored quickly to make it a two score-game and demoralize a Wolfpack team that couldn&#8217;t get going on the ground.  They were held to just 34 rushing yards, which allowed the Clemson front seven to tee off on quarterback Devin Leary in the second half.  Leary finished the game 28 of 47 for 245 yards with one touchdown and one interception.<\/p>\n<p>The win pushes Clemson to 3-0 in the ACC, with two of those wins coming over ranked division opponents.  Does that mean Clemson is &#8220;back&#8221; as a national power?  That remains to be seen.  But there&#8217;s no doubt that two wins over division and conference title contenders will not only give Swinney&#8217;s crew confidence, but also give the Tigers the inside track toward a return to the ACC Championship Game. <\/p>\n<p><em>CBS Sports will update this story shortly with takeaways from Clemson&#8217;s big win over NC State. <\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script
