Switch to 3-4 a key in spring practices

FAYETTEVILLE -- The 15 days of spring football practices open for the Arkansas Razorbacks on Tuesday with many areas of interest, including an overhaul of the team's base defense under new coordinator Paul Rhoads.

The University of Arkansas, Fayetteville will start spring drills later than every other SEC program for the second year in a row. It will conclude the five weeks of workouts with the annual Red-White game April 29. It is the only SEC spring game on that date.

The Razorbacks hope to conduct the spring finale at Reynolds Razorback Stadium, where construction on the north end zone complex and overhaul of the Broyles Athletic Center have been taking place since the home finale Nov.
