The defense punched back in the second scrimmage of Rice football spring practices, dominating the afternoon after the offense started the week strong.

On a beautiful spring afternoon, the Rice football defense roared back to life in the second scrimmage of spring practices, emphatically declaring their preeminence against the offenses’ best.

Rice Football 2024 Spring Practice Notebook 4: Halfway Point Observations

March 28, 2024 By Matthew Bartlett

Rice football is halfway done with spring practices and things continue to go smoothly as the Owls’ experienced roster works to improve.

There’s been less Rice football 101 this spring as an experienced roster transitions from learning the basics to perfecting their craft. That’s been a theme throughout the last two and a half weeks of practices and something the coaching staff has noticed, much to their delight. This update hits on those signs of veteran experience while touching on a younger position group making big strides. As always, the entire archive of practice reports is available on our Patreon.
