Now PAT happened.

Score: Defense 8, Offense 8

Freshman Broderick Vehrs leads a drive into the defense’s territory, but the offense fails on a fourth-down conversion. Vehrs hit Israel Polk for a 30+-yard gain.

Mestemaker hits Barnes on a go route for a 97-yard touchdown on the first play of the next series, giving the offense a lead with the double dip in points.

Score: Offense 16, Defense 12

The first-string offense started the next drive in defensive territory and were able to put together a drive that ended with Caleb Hawkins hammering it into the end zone from two yards out.

Score: Offense 22, Defense 12

The second-team offense got the ball at the defense’s 25 and was unable to go anywhere. Keltner hit a 45-yard field goal.

Score: Offense 25, Defense 12

After a kickoff exhibition, the offense ran a two-minute drill that ended in a 33-yard field goal from Keltner.

The score seems meaningless at this point. They’re moving it around as they please, it seems.

Mestemaker hits Wyatt Young for a 38-yard touchdown. Young hadn’t made much of an impact on the game until that drive, when he caught a pair of passes.

Freshmen Luke Tepas and Jabarie Thornton connect for a touchdown after a long drive from the reserve offense. The drive’s biggest play was a big run from Tarleton transfer running back Tre Page.

The scrimmage ends with the offense winning 42-33. Sorry this live blog was a little all over the place, the format was a little messy. More coverage on the day to come.
