*Wilson leads NC State's 45-14 rout of Gardner-Webb*

By JOEDY McCREARY AP Sports Writer

RALEIGH, N.C.(AP) -- Russell Wilson had four touchdown passes for the second straight week, threw for a career-high 345 yards and set an NCAA passing record in North Carolina State's 45-14 rout of Gardner-Webb on Saturday night.

Toney Baker had two early scoring runs before Wilson threw touchdown passes covering 17 and 12 yards to George Bryan, 24 yards to T.J. Graham and 16 yards to Jarvis Williams for the Wolfpack (2-1).

Wilson broke the NCAA record of 325 consecutive passes without an interception set by Kentucky's Andre Woodson from 2006-07. He entered 32 attempts behind Woodson, but surpassed him late in the third quarter with a 13-yard dump-off over the middle to James Washington.

With his fourth touchdown pass, Wilson extended the pick-free streak to 329.

Stan Doolittle was 14-for-22 for 112 yards and had a 1-yard touchdown run for Gardner-Webb (2-1).
