The spring Red & White Game was a competition between the offense and the defense, and you can put a ‘W’ in the books for the offense.
A strong performance by junior quarterback D’Eriq King and his receivers led the offense to score 48 points against the defense.
The game was split into four 10-minute quarters, with no stopping of the clocks during quarters. The offense tried to score as many points as possible, and at halftime, the score they accrued was given to the defense to simulate a come-from-behind situation.
The defense pulled off a couple huge plays that led to those scores, but the holes on the defensive side were again apparent in the second half, when the offense ran up 31 points.
