Oklahoma football has been one of the leaders during the coronavirus pandemic, and now the Sooners are doing something, again, before anyone else.

After the NCAA approved of the waiver, Oklahoma’s first game was moved up one week to Aug. 29. That allowed the Sooners to begin practice, but practices have come to a stop.

We decided it’s best to give our players some time off,” said Lincoln Riley in a press release on Saturday night. “We were able to start camp before the vast majority of teams because our Aug. 29 season-opening game date was the earliest in the country. With that first game pushed back a week or two, it only makes sense to spread out our practices and give our guys some time away. They’ve done a great job so far.”
