Texas received pretty solid performances from two young defensive players on Saturday. Edwin Freeman and Malik Jefferson made their presence known to the Longhorn faithful.
Hopefully we see many more years of this duo.
An injury to Dalton Santos opened the door for Freeman and Jefferson to see plenty of snaps. Jefferson had six tackles. His hit on Daje Johnson created a turnover that Freeman picked up and rumbled in for a defensive touchdown. It was the kind of play that has been missing from the defense for a number of years.
