Re: New turf
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.

Re: New turf
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.GoCats18 wrote:Hawks86 wrote:https://twitter.com/msubobcats/status/859899250351714305

Re: New turf
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.John K wrote:This is probably kind of nit picky, but I don't know why they're doing dark green on both sides of the 50.

Re: New turf
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.KittieKop wrote:I think I prefer the double dark at the 50 myself.

Re: New turf
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!Hawks86 wrote:https://twitter.com/msubobcats/status/869968694352396288

I really like the turf going all the way to the stands instead of that blue border. Is a cleaner more finished look IMO

Brown not black. Does that mean it's cork not rubber?TomCat88 wrote:That's what I thought too but now they're dumping a bunch a brown stuff on there probably that court stuffLong Time Cat wrote:Checked the web cam. It looks like they're done. Looks great!

Re: New turf
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.
