Two-touchdown underdog North Carolina State was 79 yards from the end zone playing at No. 24 Pittsburgh, trailing 29-24. It looked like a longshot for the Wolfpack, but seven plays later, the visitors were at the Panthers’ 13-yard line with just 23 seconds remaining in the game.

That’s when sophomore quarterback Devin Leary, making his first start of the season, threw to senior wide receiver Emeka Emezie, who made a spinning back-shoulder reception to give his team the victory, 30-24.

Emezie’s game winner is this week’s U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish “Catch of the Week.”

For the game, Emezie had seven receptions for 101 yards and two touchdowns. His other score came on a 35-yard second quarter throw from Leary. The Wolfpack quarterback threw for 336 yards and four touchdowns in the win.

Remember … for the tailgate tent or the pre-game party, U. S. Farm-Raised Catfish is always “the winning catch.”

The Catfish Institute, or TCI, was formed in 1986 by catfish farmers and feed manufacturers to raise consumer awareness of the positive qualities of U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish. Since its formation, U.S. per capita consumption has more than doubled.

U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish is a sustainable and environmentally friendly seafood product. The National Audubon Society, Monterey Bay Aquarium, and Environmental Defense all recommend U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish as a safe environmental choice. To find out more, visit www.uscatfish.com.
