Offense Prevails in UL's First Scrimmage
Spirit and intensity was high at Cajun Field on Saturday as the UL offense rallied late to claim a 36-34 victory over the defense in the first scrimmage of the preseason.
"I was a little bit surprised by the play today but after a long week of practice, we came out and played pretty hard today," UL head coach Mark Hudspeth said.
"We got a little tired late and committed some silly penalties which we have to avoid. The fourth quarter is usually when your are tired and we can't be making jumping offside or making false starts if we expect to win," Hudspeth added.
The first offensive unit, led by quarterback Blaine Gautier, looked strong during the 75-minute scrimmage, but some new faces stepped up and showed that they are capable of helping out.
