Texas team executes game-winning play to perfection.

Johnson (San Antonio) pulled off a trick play worthy of attention Friday night. What makes it viral is when it happened.

The Jaguars were trailing Roosevelt 13-10 and facing fourth-and-28 from their own 41-yard line with 10 seconds left in the contest.

Then Johnson reached into its bag of tricks and seized the moment.

Quarterback John Guerra drilled a 17-yard pass to receiver Will Hall, who was blanketed. Hall leaped for the ball and suddenly pitched it to nearby wideout Brandon Mcduffie. The electric junior receiver utilized a key block from teammate Alex Rodriguez and raced home for the miraculous 59-yard game-winning touchdown.

What a time for the hook and lateral.



The Jaguars escaped with the shocking 16-13 victory and improved to 4-1 overall on the year.
