Florida Gators open practice report: 8/11/18

For the first time this fall the Florida Gators opened an entire practice to the media. We are limited in what we can report (formations, scheme, injuries, etc…) but an entire three-hour practice was certainly revealing.

Below are Gator Country’s highlights and notes from the Gators’ open practice on August 11.

Gator Drill
Practices start differently than this season. Gone are Swamp Jacks and fastball, now the Gators start with an old fashioned Oklahoma Drill that this staff calls “Gator Drill.”

This drill pits offense vs. defense and is essentially a goal line stand drill with three defenders and three offensive players including a ball carrier.
