N.C. State quarterback Russell Wilson
The redshirt freshman O'Brien completed 33 of 478 passes, while Smith finished with a career-high 14 catches for 224 yards and became the first Terp to catch four touchdown passes in a single game.
Russell Wilson completed 31 of 60 passes for 311 yards for the Wolfpack, passing for two touchdowns and rushing for two more.
He scored on a 1-yard run with 2:39 to go to make it 38-24, and then connected with James Washington on an eight-yard touchdown pass at 1:16 after State recovered the ensuing onside kick. But the last onside kick went the Terps' way.
