So I brewed a batch of NB dead ringer on Thursday night and everything went perfectly and it was fermenting within the first 15 hours. Left for the weekend and my girlfriend sent me a picture of a big mess Saturday morning. I had her put a blow off hose in it as soon as possible. It was uncovered for at most 15 hours but she wasn't exactly sure when it happened. Will this batch still be ok? Any advice will be great and much appreciated.
 
^^^^^ what he said

It is likely just fine. The CO2 from active carbonation forms a protective bed from oxidation and it's unlikely any airborne wild yeasts are going to takeover, too.
