The alternating green and light green looks sharp.

Is it just me or does it look like they put 2 dark green strips together then went back to alternating?

Mid field area is all darker green. They got back to alternating after that.

I was thinking the same as bp, but this is correct.

This is probably kind of nit picky, but I don't know why they're doing dark green on both sides of the 50. I think it would look better if they had dark green on one side of the 50 and light green on the other side, so that it would alternate between dark and light across the entire field.

I think I prefer the double dark at the 50 myself. Gives kinda a symmetry to the field, and another visual mid-field reference. I like it.

That's why they do it, symmetry. The field would look odd if one endzone had dark green from goal line to the 5 and the other endzone had light green from goal line to the 5. If you look at Oregon's field, it really looks awesome when the product is all finished.

You know how bad the east bleacher sections is when every shot from MSU Athletics only features the South Endzone, and takes such great pains to NOT include the beautiful tan section on the east! :lol:

https://twitter.com/DanDavies7684/status/871017034540122112 I really like the turf going all the way to the stands instead of that blue border. Is a cleaner more finished look IMO

Checked the web cam. It looks like they're done. Looks great!

Brown not black. Does that mean it's cork not rubber?

Funny, I was watching them wrap up for the day and they overturned a cart they were using and either spilled something on the field or tore a part of the turf that they hadn't put sand on yet. They are really scrambling to fix it right now.
