Natural Grass vs Artificial/Field Turf

[Dr.bannedman]

All you guys who say we need field turf are a bunch of cry babies. What didn’t your mom let you play in the sandbox as a kid? She probably always had fresh play-doh for you

idk what this means but your use of analogies is like jack trice playing surface. ****.

If we get turf can it at least be decent. For example Tech’s turf looks like ****. Don’t mind West Virginia’s.

I thought the field was just fine today. Fire away...

The point was you cant compare Iowa State or any other college playing field to a pro stadium field, not the other way around.

You can compare pretty much any 2 items in the world.

I'd be curious what the coaches and players would say while on sodium pentothal.

Haven't read through the thread. Has their been discussion on what the kids prefer to play on? Seems best recruits would come from high schools with turf fields. I personally love the look of a natural grass field. But looks ain't gonna win ya titles.

Good thing we dont have to worry about that.

Brock had a slip once that probably cost us a first down. Peterson had a slip that almost allowed TCU to get a first down.

Back to back home games for a combined 121 points. Is that a school record?

Your mom let me play in her sandbox....

Whether it’s natural or artificial turf going forward, they need to replace the existing turf and drainage after this season. 4 games in and it’s already in bad shape.

 

[jmb]

the field looks like chewed peace of double mint gum. not good

That is wht they say about ur moms ass.


Relax. Relax. Relax. It is a grade school joke. Relax.

How many times did TCU slip? How many times would Brock have slipped on turf?

Saying artificial is better than natural is one thing, but why does everyone act like having natural turf is a disadvantage to us? Both teams are playing on the same field, no? If one team has had 5 other games to get used to the surface, would that not be an ADVANTAGE over a team (like Texas) who played most games on artificial?

I don't get the argument..

Yea, I thought it was perfectly fine too.

I went back only to 1960, and briskly, so this is highly unofficial...

Only 3 other back to back home wins with at least 100 points before today.

2002 -- 103 -- Kansas, Tennessee Tech.
1986 -- 100 -- Indiana State, Wichita State.
1980 -- 100 -- Colorado State, Kansas State.

Football was meant to allow QBs to be hit and WRs to be creamed by defensive players. That's gone now too.

Gross dude, this is a family site.

Seems like when you’re a defensive minded team in an offensive minded conference, you’d want to keep natural grass.

It seems dumb to discuss it right now. Nothing can be done until the end of the season.

The field seemed to hold up pretty good today.

No, let's make it a track meet.

JFC, the number of bad takes after a win is not any less than after a loss.
