Boston College almost did it again.

Nyheim Hines simply wouldn’t let N.C. State lose another game to the Eagles.

Hines’ 50-yard touchdown run saved the Wolfpack and lifted it to a 17-14 win at Boston College on Saturday.

Hines, who had been slowed by an ankle injury the past two games, burst off the right side of N.C. State’s line and broke into Boston College secondary. The junior from Garner scored with 8:22 left in the game to put the Wolfpack ahead.

On the next drive, the Eagles drove down to the N.C. State 22-yard line and were lined up for a 39-yard field-goal attempt.
