On Saturday, the Texas Longhorns offense took a significant step forward, building on momentum from the second half of the first scrimmage to win over the defense.
“It was a close ballgame,” defensive coordinator Todd Orlando said on Saturday. “The offense edged us out. Our offense has beat us a couple of times. You guys might not have been around. They’ve done a good job, a really good job.”
As head coach Tom Herman noted on Monday, the big difference between preseason camp this year and preseason camp in 2017 is that the offense was able to score touchdowns against the first-team defense.
