FILE - Texas linebacker DeMarvion Overshown pauses after taking the field before an NCAA college football game against Oklahoma State in Austin, Texas, Oct. 16, 2021. A year after the NCAA gave athletes Election Day off, football teams all over the country were practicing on the first Tuesday in November. Although the NCAA's Election Day rule remains in place, teams could pursue waivers if they wanted to practice. Texas practiced in the morning, which was fine with Overshown. “We still have all afternoon to go and vote and stuff,” he said. "It works better for us anyways, keep the normal schedule, not try to mix things up right in the middle of the season.” (AP Photo/Chuck Burton, File)
