Arkansas Razorbacks Football 2023 fall camp schedule begins Friday

When we say early, we mean early. Practice will be open to the media at 6:40 a.m. CT Friday morning and the team plans on having morning practices around 9 a.m. until classes start on Aug. 21.

"With it being over 100 degrees over the next three days, we’re going to have practice in the a.m.," Pittman said Wednesday. "We know we’re in condition, we’ve been conditioning in the heat all summer. We’re trying to have some really good practices, so we have plenty of time to get them acclimated to the heat heat, but right now we’ve decided to change our first few practices to the a.m."

The team is conditioned for the heat because they did workouts in it over the summer.

"We had to get a tough," Pittman said. "I mean, there’s a lot to be said about mental toughness too. We’ve got to get tough, now. You can go in the morning, you can go in the afternoon, you can go at night. And we just elected to put them in the hardest situation that we possibly could."

The Hogs are set to have 25 practices in 29 days to gear up for the season opener against Western Carolina at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock on Saturday, September 2.

Arkansas will practice six days a week and take one Wednesday and three Sunday's off. The team will also have two closed scrimmages.

Seven of the 25 practices are required to be helmets only and the team can't put full pads on until at least the seventh practice. The team can have up to 120 players participating in fall camp at a time.

After each practice there will be a media availability with coordinators, position coaches and select players. Pittman is set to speak with the media at least four times prior to game week, which starts Monday, Aug. 28.

Below is the full schedule with dates and times for practices.
