While some spring practice sessions have already commenced -- sans media and fans -- the vast majority will rev up in the coming days and weeks.
For those who are interested in when their team will begins preparations, or when an archrival responds in kind, here’s a handy list of every start and spring game date for each of the Div.1-A schools, very neatly sorted in a conference-by-conference format.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed putting it together. And also thank you very much to the National Football Foundation for their email help in compiling this list.
