RALEIGH, N.C. – NC State head football coach Tom O'Brien has been informed by Doug Rhoads, head of ACC football officials, that the play that the Wolfpack coaching staff challenged in the third quarter of Saturday's game against Clemson was a fumble and should have been overturned, giving NC State the football.

The score was 24-14 Clemson at the time of the play and the Tigers eventually scored on the drive, increasing their lead to 31-14.

Clemson ultimately won the game, 43-23.

The Wolfpack (4-6 overall, 1-5ACC) will play at Virginia Tech on Saturday. Kickoff is slated for 3:30 p.m. and will be broadcast on ESPNU.
