If you install drainage and heating under the field you can easily grow/maintain grass good enough to play football on in Lincoln NE during October and November (there is an MLS team in Minnesota that has a natural grass field that is used in March and November). But the problem is usage. If you just plan to use it 8 times a fall it would be fine. But if you want to practice on it 3-4 times a week, let the band practice on it 3-4 times a week, host high school football on it, then it becomes problematic in the Lincoln climate. If everything was equal, I think everyone would prefer grass over turf. But everything isn't equal. Almost every NFL stadiums played in grass surface. Even indoors .... Raiders and Cardinals. Hauled grass field, Most players demands grass instead of crappy fake turf. 1 Quote Link to comment

Michigan, poor drainage because actually Big Hole instead of Big House. Mostly submerged. Ohio State's stadium is also beneath the water table and they're replacing their turf this season. Once again, you just have no clue what you're saying. I'm not even pro team turf - I think having grass would be amazing. It's just that you have the s#!ttiest nonsense arguments. 3 Quote Link to comment

You need to get in touch with Trev and let him know what horrible decision he has made. ad@huskers.com You can also let him know what a crappy AD he is for inflicting this on you.

Indoor stadium lists ....... Vikings Colts*** Falcons*** Lions Saints Seahawks*** Rams/Chargers Cowboys*** *** partially open roof but not enough sun light Thus net stadiums ..... 14 minus 8 equal 6. 16 real grass, 6 fake turf. 2 Quote Link to comment

Arizona can move their entire field outside. Pretty sure these other places could install florescent lights to to help the grass grow. Just like some of the people I went to school with who grew grass inside 1 Quote Link to comment

Hey Mavic, I remember Mavic's photos during East project. I don't like design (minority voice here). 3rd and 4th upper decks, WAY too high. Players on the field, ants. And recommend seats, oxygen tank and high-powered binoculars EDIT: I mean Knapplc instead of Mavic. Long time hiatus. Touch of Alzheimer's disease and dementia Quote Link to comment

Love getting rid of alternating greens...want red endzones with white lettering...field would look dope. Put $ into LED endzones...change that s#!t up every quarter Quote Link to comment

In fact it's significantly better than the view from the first 30 or so rows on the lower bowls of East and West. 2 Quote Link to comment
