  "account": "RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — N.C. State quarterback CJ Bailey delivered a career-best performance, passing for 373 yards and two touchdowns as the Wolfpack edged out Louisville 31-28 on Saturday.\n\nThe victory marked N.C. State's second straight win after a heartbreaking last-minute loss to Vanderbilt. CJ Bailey's exceptional play helped the team maintain their winning streak.\n\nKanoah Vinesett contributed 28 yards on a field goal with just four minutes left in the game, securing the win for N.C. State. Joshisa Trader led the offense with 92 yards on five catches, and Tyran Warren added a 34-yard touchdown reception.\n\nLouisville's Isaac Brown rushed for 125 yards and a touchdown, while Keyjuan Brown added 88 yards and a score on eight carries. Tre Richardson had 117 receiving yards and a touchdown on eight catches.\n\nTy Lincon Kienholz threw for 254 yards and two touchdowns for Louisville, who finished the game with 485 total yards. Kienholz was listed as questionable after suffering an injury in the previous game against Wake Forest, but he played well.\n\nN.C. State took a 28-14 lead in the third quarter following Will Wilson's 1-yard touchdown run. Louisville answered with a touchdown of their own, but the Wolfpack managed to hold on for the win.",
