After four days of split squad practices, LSU's sixth-ranked football team finally practiced as an entire unit on Thursday as the Tigers worked out in full pads for just over two hours.

North Texas is ranked #1 in their conference, but LSU isn't even #1 in theirs!!! How can we be the underdogs with solid facts like those?

To answer what I think was your original question, the NCAA allows a certain number of practices within a certain time period prior to the start of the season. Coaching staffs have the latitude to schedule more two-a-days, three-a-days, etc. and start later if they so choose. They will all have the same number of practices before that first game.
