Faced with second-and-10 a yard inside Nebraska territory with just over 30 seconds to play, redshirt freshman quarterback Landry Jones heaved a desperation pass that floated short of the end zone and was easily intercepted by Matt O’Hanlon. It was O’Hanlon’s third interception of the night and Jones’ fifth.
"We take everybody deep and run one guy on a comeback,” said offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson. "So you’re showing the illusion of going deep and running one guy on an underneath route. Unfortunately, our quarterback didn’t see that part of the signal and just chucked it.”
Wilson wanted Jones to throw to Ryan Broyles near the 30-yard line, but the missed signal led to Jones not looking Broyles’ way.
"I don’t think that was the really critical part of our game. It was just one of many mistakes that we made,” Wilson said. "He’s just a kid that misread a signal. Wasn’t that big a deal.”
