Add a synthetic "the hill" to compete with ku for "setting", maybe even a sniper tower too. Since synthetic is better, we win by default :gocho:

Sure seems that way. Although it seems like the ones in grass climates grow grass, and the ones in freeze you Dick off  climate do turf

Any cancer clusters in college football yet?

Tom I'm guessing you don't make it to the soccer threads much. Football players don't ingest pellets, facemasks mouthpieces and such. Turf is total bullshit for soccer but it is fine for football as football players don't spend inordinate amounts of time sliding on hot turf, nor are they running miles and miles per day on it.

Thanks for the update. Basically the football uniform acts as hazmat suit and they limit their exposure to three hours a day.

Yet at K-State, and other schools nearly every single football practice is held for hours on artificial grass.

The air temp above artificial grass is typically just a couple of degrees warmer than natural grass at 2 to 4 feet above the surface.

Yeah, K-State hardly ever uses their grass practice fields. They need to be turned to something else.

Good likelihood they are going to be turned into the soccer practice fields.
Texas Christian University coach Gary Patterson has been hired as Kansas State's 34th football coach, multiple sources have confirmed to GoPowercat.com.  Patterson replaces Ron Prince, who was fired Wednesday. - Tim Fitzgerald   Nov, 7, 2008

Noticed on TGIP's workout video for the Packers that the FieldTurf (Not AstroTurf Gameday Grass) in the indoor facility, which is about 10 years old now, looks a lot better aesthetically than the AstroTurf Gameday Grass in the football stadium.

Makes sense. Is old stadium for sure going to be where the games are at?

Can Confirm they are turning them into artificial turf fields for Women's Soccer.

They should probably have those at Old Stadium, right?

Nebraska's field looks terrible.  And I don't flow what they are playing on in the penn st / temple game, but that looks like hell, too.

Nebraska still plays on field turf, last time i heard. The Linc is natural grass.
