Alabama State football: Defense dominates again in scrimmage
MONTGOMERY, Alabama -- The defense had its way with the Alabama State offense in the Hornets’ second scrimmage of the spring, keeping the offense from mounting any serious threat throughout the 78-play, hour-long workout at Houston Markham Football Complex on Saturday afternoon.
It’s become a recurring theme CCfor the Hornets this spring as the offense managed just three first downs against the first-team defense and never sustained any real scoring threat in the 12th practice of the spring.
“It was a bit sloppy,” Alabama State coach Reggie Barlow said. “The offense didn’t compete and perform with any urgency. This is a game of passion and energy and our guys lacked it on offense. We did get a couple of big plays — Earl Lucas had a big play — so that was good to see, but as a group, I didn’t think they were quite as motivated and had as much energy as the defense.
