NASHVILLE, Tenn. -
Saturday's scrimmage provided an opportunity for Tennessee State coaches to gauge the team's progress and evaluate some of the younger players. One side really stood out to the staff.
"I thought the defense flew around today," head coach Rod Reed said. "It was total domination today by our defense, which you like to see."
The defense played with reckless abandonment for most of the practice, forcing a handful of turnovers. However, the offense was able to complete a few passes and break a couple of long runs.
"We are going to get big plays out of our offense. [Quarterback] Mike German has a big arm, and we have some backs that can break it at any time," Reed said.
With two weeks of practice under their belts the TSU football team switches their focus to the season opener against Florida A&M September 1 at LP Field.
