RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Aydan White returned one of his two interceptions for an 84-yard touchdown to lead a strong defensive effort that carried No. 16 North Carolina State past Texas Tech 27-14 on Saturday night. Texas Tech came in as the Bowl Subdivision’s top passing offense. But N.C. State’s veteran defense frequently harassed quarterback Donovan Smith and shut down any ground game the Red Raiders tried to muster. Demie Sumo-Karngbaye scored two touchdowns as the Wolfpack improved to 3-0. Smith ran and threw for scores to lead the Red Raiders, who were off to a 2-0 start under first-year coach Joey McGuire.
