CHESTNUT HILL, Massachusetts (Ticker) -- Boston College spotted

North Carolina State an double-digit lead. It turned out to be

nothing Matt Ryan could not overcome.

In his first game since being named starter in place of Quinton

Porter, Ryan ran for two touchdowns and passed for another to

lead the Eagles to a 30-10 Atlantic Coast Conference victory

over the Wolfpack.

Brian Clark scored on a 96-yard pass from Marcus Stone just

under five minutes into the game and John Deraney kicked a

48-yard field goal to open a 10-0 lead for the Wolfpack with

6:48 left in the first quarter.

Boston College (7-4, 4-3 ACC Atlantic) took a 17-10 lead at the

half after Ryan hit Chris Miller with a 17-yard TD pass with 24

seconds left in the second quarter.

Ryan, who completed 8-of-16 passes for 185 yards, ran for a

three-yard TD in the third quarter and added a one-yard scoring

run with 1:50 to play to cap the scoring.

L.V. Whitworth, who pulled the Eagles within 10-7 with a

one-yard TD run late in the first quarter, finished with 119

yards on 26 carries.

NC State (4-5, 3-5 Atlantic) averaged 247 yards rushing over its

last two games, including a win over Florida State, but was

limited to 59 yards on 40 carries.
