Recap
The Red squad jumped out to a 31-7 halftime lead and then held on to defeat the White squad, 34-28, in the annual Red-White spring scrimmage.

The determined running of Dan Alexander helped pull the Whites, composed of the No. 2 offense and No. 1 defense, back into contention in the second half. The redshirt freshman had 89 yards on just nine carries, including runs of 29 and 27 yards, and proved difficult to bring down on several occasions.

Ahman Green of the Reds led all ball carriers with 96 yards on 12 attempts.

Shevin Wiggins put the Whites in front early with a 78-yard punt return, but the Reds then reeled off 31 unanswered points to take a 31-7 lead into the locker room.

The Reds finished with 342 yards of total offense. The passing game struggled at times, with Reds quarterback Scott Frost completing just 3 of 16 passes in the first half.
