[QUOTE="Skeptic, post: 153379, member: 2175"] I can agree with the first part of this but just don't have the insight or knowledge of technology to judge the second part. But it seems to be true that the bowl venues, to look better on TV, are overseeding their fields with winter growing rye grass -- a couple of people in my neighborhood do it with their lawns and for the life of me I don't get it -- so if it is true that it can be slippery (because it grows vertically, thin blades?) teams should prepare for the effects. (Years ago in the Tangerine Bowl that became, I think, the Citrus Bowl, a lake no more than 125 yards long at one end of the small stadium had a small sailboat, tacking back and forth, back and forth, for three hours, all routinely seen on TV, to show viewers that Florida was great for winter visits. They had no clue how small that "lake" was.) [/QUOTE]
