It should be natural grass wall to wall or green turf that is the same color wall to wall, end of story.
I mean, people have a "you barely even notice on gameday" stance. That's like you building a brand new house, it looks really shitty but you try to convince yourself you like it by saying something like "you barely even notice the crap brick work the few days it rains every year", if you squint your eyes or completely close them (or some other stupid comparison). If you spend that much money on something new, it needs to be 100% done and look good 100% of the time.
It's just, so, so K-State0.
