Spring Practices
Sunday, February 27, 2005 at 03:14PM Well, spring football is once again upon us. It is a great time
to witness position battles among veterans before all the freshman pups
arrive in the fall. Despite earning less hype than the fall
camps, spring is a lot more intense mentally, as players get coached up
and battle for jobs. For many teams, fall has become less
competitive and more about implementing the team's schemes and
specialized tasks to get ready for the season. Remember, college
football does not have a preseason to work out the kinks.
It is our experience that spring practice reports tend to be scattered
and somewhat unreliable, and difficult to chase down if nothing
else. If we run across anything of note from the practices, we'll
report it on here, but our suggestion otherwise is to use some of our
links to find the newspapers for your favorite teams, as well as
checking out services like Rivals and Scout for various reports from the team websites.
