RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- C.J. Spiller became the first player in Clemson history to record a touchdown passing, rushing and

receiving in the same game, helping the No. 24 Tigers defeat North Carolina State 43-23 on Saturday.

Spiller, who broke Derrick Hamilton's single-season school record for all-purpose yards on his 16-yard touchdown run in the

third quarter, rushed for 97 yards on 18 carries. He finished with three receptions for 48 yards, including a 34-yard touchdown catch

that blew open the game early in the fourth quarter.

Jamie Harper added a 69-yard touchdown run for the Tigers (7-3, 5-2 Atlantic Coast Conference), who won their fifth consecutive

game. The Tigers will clinch the ACC Atlantic Division if Boston College loses at Virginia later Saturday.

Russell Wilson was 12 of 32 for 183 yards and two touchdowns for the Wolfpack (4-6, 1-5 ACC), who allowed at least 30 points for the seventh consecutive game.
