In this story:

The Texas Longhorns are a few weeks away from beginning the second season under head coach Sean Miller, and to prepare for the campaign ahead, the team recently held a closed scrimmage against Arizona State at the Moody Center.

While we have yet been able to uncover a final score for the scrimmage, one source told Texas Longhorns on SI that it was "definitely a productive deal for the staff and players."

Another source said that the scrimmage "went really well."

The team released highlights of the scrimmage on Monday evening, and there was certainly a ton for fans to chew on.

This included multiple freshmen making plays, like Marcus Spears Jr., Joe Sterling and Bo Ogden.

On top of that, transfers David Punch, Isaiah Johnson, Elyjah Freeman and Amari Evans could all be seen in action against the Sun Devils.

Take a look at the highlights:

The Longhorns still have a closed scrimmage with SMU before an official exhibition open for fans against St. John's at Madison Square Garden on Sunday, Oct. 25 at 1 p.m. ET.

But after that, the real action begins on Nov. 2 at home against Chicago State.
