CLEMSON, S.C. -- Dabo Swinney rolled forward out of his crouch, exhaled deeply and slapped the ground. The Clemson coach knew how fortunate the third-ranked Tigers were to escape with their latest victory.Theres something to be said for finding a way to win, Swinney said. And theres something to be said for knowing how to win.A little luck doesnt hurt either.The Tigers (7-0, 4-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) needed all of it to squeak past North Carolina State 24-17 in overtime Saturday.The Wolfpack (4-2, 1-1) were a 33-yard field goal away at the end of regulation from quashing Clemsons perfect start. Instead, Kyle Bambard pushed the kick right and sent most of the 82,104 at Death Valley into hysterics.I kind of looked up and I saw it started to sail, then I closed my eyes because I couldnt believe it was actually happening, Clemson defensive end Christian Wilkins said. I waited for the crowd to cheer. They messed up because they gave us another chance.Given new life, Clemson responded like defending ACC champions. The Tigers converted a fourth-and-1 to keep their overtime the drive going, and then Deshaun Watson connected with Artavis Scott on a go-ahead 10-yard TD pass. Marcus Edmond intercepted Wolfpack quarterback Ryan Finleys deep thrown into the end zone to keep the Tigers undefeated and on track for the league title game and the College Football Playoff.It wasnt the prettiest effort for Clemson, which gave up 397 yards and turned it over four times -- including Watsons first-ever pick six -- to the Wolfpack. But it made it two straight heart-stopping home games for the Tigers, who trailed 36-28 to Louisville before rallying with two touchdowns in the final eight minutes to take that showdown victory.Its about faith and belief, said Watson, who finished 39 of 52 for 378 yards and two touchdowns. Its what we had to do to get the `W.Bambard was 1 for 4 on field-goal attempts.At the same time, we couldve stopped them one more time, North Carolina State cornerback Mike Stevens said. Its on the whole team. Im not pointing fingers.Stevens started the second-half drama with a 28-yard interception return TD after Clemson came out of the half with a 10-3 lead. The Wolfpack tied things at 17-all on Matt Dayes 2-yard scoring run with 11:29 to go.Dayes ended with 106 yards, his fifth 100-yard rushing game in six outings.Clemson took a big hit early on when running back Wayne Gallman came out, looking woozy and out of it as he headed to the locker room. Gallman, the teams leading rusher, did not return. Running backs coach and co-offensive coordinator Tony Elliott said Gallmans prognosis is good.Receiver Hunter Renfrow, who had six catches in his first game since Sept. 10 because of a broken hand, was hurt in the fourth quarter and came out the rest of the way.TAKEAWAYNorth Carolina State: The Wolfpack look like a team on the rise, one of the few the past two season that has been able to take the Tigers down to the wire.Clemson: The Tigers have been clutch, but can they keep winning with all these turnovers? They are up to 16 on the season. Clemson had 27 (which is a lot) last season and reached the national championship game.POLL IMPLICATIONSDont be surprised to see the Tigers slip a notch or two when the new Top 25 comes out Sunday.STREAKY CLEMSONThe Tigers are 7-0 for a second straight season and third time since 2011. Theyve also won 21 straight regular-season games dating to 2014 and 20 consecutive home games counting back to a 51-14 Death Valley loss to Florida State in 2013.BAMBARDS DAYBambard also had a kick hit the upright and another blocked by Wilkins. The sophomore kickers had missed only one kick this season -- and that came in last weeks hurricane conditions against Notre Dame -- before coming to Clemson.I havent seen him yet, North Carolina State coach Dave Doeren said of Bambard. But I will. Ill encourage him.UP NEXTNorth Carolina State: The Wolfpack head to No. 7 Louisville where they are 0-3 all time, including a 30-18 defeat two years ago.Clemson: The Tigers get the week off before traveling to No. 14 Florida State on Oct. 29. Clemson has won just once (2006) in its past 12 visits to Tallahassee.---More college football coverage at http://collegefootball.ap.org/ JT Riddle Jersey .C. Lions has come to an end.

Lombardi, the grandson of former Green Bay Hall of Fame coach Vince Lombardi, has been an offensive assistant on Sean Paytons New Orleans staff since 2007. Allrounder Moises Henriques knows he is good enough for Test cricket, but he also knows that consistency is the key if he is to fulfil his ambition of a long career in the baggy green. In Sri Lanka, Henriques is soaking up the atmosphere of again being part of Australias Test squad, the first time he has toured with the Test side in more than two years.And while Mitchell Marsh is the established allrounder in Australias Test team, there is a chance Henriques could play on the tour depending on the balance of the attack Australias selectors decide to use. Although Henriques has not played a first-class match since November - his season was ended by a calf injury suffered in the BBL - the selectors took a punt on him for the Sri Lanka tour.Henriques played his only three Tests on Australias most recent Test tour of South Asia, in India in 2013, and his batting on debut hinted at a Test-match temperament. Henriques used his long limbs to reach from the crease and negate Indias spin threat in Chennai, his 68 and 81* making him the only Australian since 1980 to score 50-plus in both innings on debut.However, Henriques failed to reach double figures in either of the Tests that followed, in Hyderabad and Mohali, and picked up only two wickets for the series on pitches that offered little for the pace bowlers. He was dropped for the final Test in Delhi and although he was part of the squadd that toured South Africa a year later, he has not played a Test since that Indian series.dddddddddddd.I hope Ive improved and I hope Ive also learnt about how hard Test cricket is, in terms of backing up day after day, Test after Test, Henriques told reporters in Colombo on Tuesday. You see the likes of Smithy and Davey, how they perform Test after Test and are able to bounce back and just be extremely consistent all the time.Its not just about one good performance or a couple of good performances. Youve got to keep churning them and keep being as good as you can for as long as you can. After one good Test I felt like Id displayed that I was good enough, but just not consistent enough. Thats the biggest thing, is to do it over and over again. I certainly feel like Ive improved as a cricketer and given the opportunity, Id like to think I could do even better than I did then.Although Henriques missed the second half of Australias home season, he had plenty of time to get used to Asian conditions during the IPL, playing all 17 matches in Sunrisers Hyderabads successful campaign. That was followed by a stint training on the special spinning pitch Cricket Australia has developed in Brisbane, and Henriques hopes that preparation will hold him in good stead.
