NCAA wants to limit full-contact practices & reduce scrimmages in fall camp

By Barrett Sallee, CBS Sports: The 2021 college football spring practice season is wrapping up, and some significant changes could be coming to how coaches conduct practices once fall camp rolls around. According to a report from Sports Illustrated, the NCAA’s Football Oversight Committee (FOC) is expected to present changes to how practices are conducted.

Those recommendations include the reduction of full-padded practices from 21 to eight, limiting each team to two full scrimmages and banning full-speed collision drills like the “Oklahoma Drill” in which two players fire off the line of scrimmage and hit each other in the middle of a circle of teammates.
