Appalachian State magic has struck again.

Trailing 28-26 to Troy in the dying seconds on Saturday, Mountaineers quarterback Chase Brice uncorked a 53-yard Hail Mary as a last resort with time expiring.

His throw landed short of the end zone and on top of a mix of receivers and defenders, however. That’s when magic struck again.

After bouncing off multiple defenders’ hands, the pass landed perfectly in Christian Horn’s hands. He subsequently ran with it eight yards into the end zone for another iconic win.

Brice finished with 278 passing yards and two touchdowns. Horn led the team in receiving, hauling in five receptions for 98 yards and that decisive touchdown.
