N.C. State vs. FSU 2012 video highlights: Mike Glennon leads upset with clutch 4th quarter drive

Mike Glennon of the N.C. State Wolfpack completed three fourth down conversions on the final drive, including one that was the game-winning touchdown to Bryan Underwood to upset third-ranked Florida State.

The Florida State Seminoles seemed to be in total control in the first half after taking a 16-0 lead on the North Carolina State Wolfpack, a score that was mainly fueled by EJ Manuel and his touchdown pass to Nick O'Leary. But N.C. State rallied, and the result is one of the big upsets of the season.

Here are the video highlights of the game.

The critical drive came in the final minutes for the Wolfpack. N.C. State quarterback Mike Glennon really made his mark on the game on 4th down on the final drive. He would complete a 4th and short to Asa Watson, draw a pass interference on his next throw, then eventually convert another 4th down when he found Quintin Payton on a ball that was ruled a completion and was not overturned upon review. Then on 4th and goal, Glennon found Bryan Underwood sneaking underneath for the two-yard touchdown pass with 16 seconds left to give N.C. State the big 17-16 victory. Manuel's last second Hail Mary bid was batted down.
