The N.C. State Wolfpack proved to a nationally-televised audience and 74,000 in attendance at Death Valley that they are the real deal by embarrassing the Clemson Tigers 38-6.

Freshman sensation T.A. McLendon rushed for a career-high 178 yards as the Pack cruised to an unexpectedly easy win against Clemson. State also scored on special teams with a punt-block and kickoff return for touchdowns. It was a dominating performance in every phase of the game.

The win marks the Wolfpack's best start in school history (9-0), and it also made believers out of many that thought they were overrated and overhyped.

The game also marked the first live broadcast at a Southern Fried Football Tour stop, and we would like to thank the thousands of fans that showed up at the Esso Club and enjoyed in all the festivities.

And speaking of the Esso Club, let it be said that there is not a better establishment in The South for pre-game and post-game fun...the Esso Club is awesome and so is their hospitality!
