Special-teams also deserves some blame for the loss here. Als had absolutely nothing going on offense, the Stamps had just taken a 12 point lead, and the Als could have been pinned back at the 7, and instead, offside, rekick, late hit, and the Als are suddenly starting a drive from midfield. There's no way the Als could have driven 103 yards for a major, the way they were playing.
But yeah, horrible decision to throw an out on that last play. You have to know that the defenders are going to be going for the int on every play at that point. Keep it way downfield or over the middle, or just hand it off.
