Oregon St. starts practice for the 2011 Football season on Monday, August 8. The Beavers will practice Monday through Saturday each of the first 3 weeks, and 4 days the week of the home opener against Sacramento St. on Sept. 3.
The NCAA mandates that the first 5 days of practice be an "acclimation period", during which only one practice per day may be held. Oregon St. will not be in full gear until the fifth day. This format came as a result of rule changes in 2004 designed to lessen injuries and heat related illnesses.
Oregon St. will practice without any pads the first two days, then go two days with helmets and only shoulder pads before breaking out the rest of the gear Aug. 12.
Saturday, Aug. 13 will be the first "two-a-day", with a morning session beginning at 8:30 AM, followed by an evening practice at 6:30 PM.
Game officials are tentatively scheduled to be present on both Aug. 18 and Aug. 24.
As always under head coach Mike Riley, practices are open to the public, and free, with the only restriction being on video recording equipment being banned except with prior approval for select media.
The full schedule is after the jump.
