NORMAN, Okla. -- Oklahoma head football coach Bob Stoops has announced the tentative preseason practice schedule for this season. This year's preseason practices will take place at the Rugby Fields located west of the Lloyd Noble Center. This is a change from previous years when the team worked out at the Intramural Fields on Stinson St.
Other than the Aug. 9 workout, all other practices (prior to the first game week) are open unless otherwise announced. At the present time, three scrimmages are scheduled for Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium.
Fans planning to attend the Rugby Field workouts should park in the lot west of the Lloyd Noble Center. Parking will not be permitted on Blankenship Drive, which connects Chautauqua with the LNC.
Here is the preseason schedule, which is subject to change ...
