Count 'Bility Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I like the two-tone. I thinks it's just another uniquish ( ) addition to memorial stadium. As far as grass, I think football should be played on grass too, but for the sake of maintenance costs-especially in this area of the country-an artificial turf is the way to go. My question is, why was the black stuff even an option. Quote Link to comment
HUSKER 37 Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 The Two tone field reminds me of the plaid pants Herb Tarlek wore on "WKRP in Cincinnati". And didn't a couple of ACC teams do that a decade or two ago? The field turf is a great improvement over the "astro" artificial turf.. Too bad it smells like old tires. Teh "Black" was a nice touch ...to get teh younger crowd involved. Quote Link to comment
husker rob Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 i like the 2 tone and i would like a solid field also. either way i am good Quote Link to comment
JTrain Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 The two-tone is a little too pronounced for me. It's probably more pronounced than any other two-tone field in FBS outside of Eugene. Many teams have two-tone fields that you barely recognize as such without looking closely (here). I like that. Plus, the lighter tone on our field almost has a yellowish tint in certain lighting, like a chartreuse. Quote Link to comment
ESPY Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 I want a field we win on....since field turf is the determining factor in the W/L column Quote Link to comment

HuskerTrucker Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 When you put "The hideous 2 tone green we have now", you wouldn't be showing your bias and trying to influence others, would you? Quote Link to comment

HUSKER 37 Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 If horses can't eat it... Maybe. But I doubt that stops the Iowa State Cheerleaders from trying. 1 Quote Link to comment

CornHOLIO Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Maybe THAT's why they did the "hideous" fade job on alternate strips. It was to make it look (not so real) so that the opposing cheerleaders would stop trying to graze. I'm beginning to appreciate it now. Quote Link to comment
papersun87 Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I like the hideousness. Quote Link to comment
Schoeny Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I can't even imagine how rediculously hot black turf would get during the summer. It would melt your skin off whenever you went down. I voted for the way it is now. It brings a modern look to Memorial, and I think it looks pretty sharp. Quote Link to comment
