Independence Bowl 2016: NC State vs. Vanderbilt Live Score and Highlights
North Carolina State finished an inconsistent season with a strong night, dominating Vanderbilt in the Independence Bowl 41-17 to finish the year 7-6.
Niles Clark's pick-six at the end of the game put the cherry on top of what already was a lopsided victory. Swiss army knife offensive star Jaylen Samuels had three touchdown receptions to pace the Wolfpack.
Though the Commodores looked like they may rally in the fourth quarter following a 71-yard punt return and subsequent rushing score by Ralph Webb, N.C. State's Nyheim Hines took the ensuing kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown to end the threat.

Vanderbilt struggled offensively. Even though Webb eclipsed 100 yards, quarterback Kyle Shurmur couldn't generate enough offense through the air for the Wolfpack to respect the pass.
The Commodores fell to 6-7, and a lot of the good vibes from a regular season-ending win over Tennessee were muted.
