TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- EJ Manuel threw for 321 yards and two touchdowns Saturday to lead Florida State to a 34-0 win over North Carolina State.

Florida State (5-3, 3-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) led 24-0 at halftime and intercepted N.C. State quarterback Mike Glennon twice en route to its first shutout of the season..
Manuel completed 25 of 34 passes and connected on scoring plays of 20 yards to Kenny Shaw and 26 yards to Greg Dent.

Lonnie Pryor and Devonta Freeman scored on short runs and Dustin Hopkins chipped in with two field goals for the Seminoles, who have bounced back from an early-season, three-game losing streak with three straight wins.

N.C. State (4-4, 1-3) managed only 166 yards on offense, while suffering its first shutout since the 2008 season opener.
