JACKSON, Tennessee -- Derrick Burroughs had seen this before. Plenty of Lane fans have seen it, too.
Up 13 points with eight minutes left, the Dragons gave up two straight touchdowns Saturday to Albany State and trailed by a point with less than four minutes left. Had Lane ruined its chance?
Not Saturday. Chris Rini threw a six-yard touchdown pass to Bradley Landrum with 33 seconds left, and Lane beat Albany State 37-31 Saturday in Jackson.
It was Lane’s second victory ever against Albany State. The first was two years ago in Jackson.
Michael Ruffin’s interception in the closing seconds sealed it for Lane (4-2, 2-1 SIAC).
The Dragons beat Stillman last week by a point. Burroughs’ early Lane teams always seemed to lose such tight, back-and-forth games. This one, so far, seems to win them.
