Russell Wilson leads Pack to win over the Heels

Posted Nov 28, 2009
On the last snap of his career for N.C. State, safety Clem Johnson saw that North Carolina quarterback T.J. Yates was uncomfortable in the pocket. Yates didn't get his feet set, and Johnson broke on the ball, leaping high for a pass that sailed high and deep toward the Tar Heel sideline. Johnson's interception with 16 seconds remaining clinched a 28-27, come-from behind win for the Wolfpack on Saturday at Carter-Finley Stadium. (Raleigh News & Observer)
