Arkansas opens 2015 preseason

FAYETTEVILLE — There were no noticeable absences in the Razorbacks' practice of the 2015 preseason Thursday.

The practice lasted a little more than two-and-a-half hours on the outdoor practice fields south of Razorback Stadium. Warmups were open to cameras, but practice was closed.

Per NCAA practice guidelines, players were not in full pads.

Players who spoke afterward offered up optimistic soundbytes typical of opening day - happy to be there and looking forward to the days ahead.

"We had a lot of young guys who knew what they were doing for the most part," quarterback Brandon Allen said.
