Jake Hornsby is going to want his last pass of the season back for a long, long time.
On second-and-long, with under three minutes to go, Hornsby dropped back to pass and had a man streaking over the middle. His ball fluttered in the air just one second too long, and a B.B. Comer defender picked it off.
