In Shorts and Helmets, The Real Practice Goes On Under the Helmet

Two and a half days till kickoff, and the Ducks are tapering down.   They held a light workout today, no pads and no hitting.  Coach Kelly said brisk hard work earlier in the week allowed them the luxury of  an extra day to review and freshen their legs.

 

Everyone looks good in shorts and helmets.  At this stage, the critical part of practice goes on under the helmet: understanding their assignments, getting mentally prepared for full go.

 

In two days and fourteen hours, they have a game with New Mexico, their first chance to show they’re ready to defend the PAC-10 championship.

  1. One of the really nice things thus far is we have had no major injuries this camp. Aside from LM for 1 game and losing Masoli, we're fit & ready to go. I CAN'T WAIT!!!
