We used to have one of the most beautiful real grass playing turfs in college football

what the hell happened to our groundskeepers? Did they lose the juice too? Our playing surface looks horrible on TV.

It was like I was watching a pop warner game’s field.

Even through in the past, our field used to look pretty for the last home game.

Looked atrocious today. I know it rained a lot yesterday in 404 Takedown but god bless the field looks awful

The PA dude needs to get the F down the road. Every time I hear the man’s voice on the intercom makes me want to cringe. He sounds so damn cheesy

Sorry, just ranting

They did some restorative work on the turf last week, and it's still not fully back. HOPEFULLY it will look fine for the Georgia game. My objection, and I know this won't surprise anyone, I HATED the blue end zones.

I didn’t even noticed the blue end zones. I would have probably noticed the blue end zones if we would have made it into the blue en zones

Coach needs to worry about coaching and let his non coaching / marketing team worry about all of the outside gimmicks

I cannot stand the PA guy. I’m waiting for him to say, “Arby’s, we got the meats!”

Naah, at least the Arby’s dude has a very deep voice and not a borderline Madonna / male voice

Pretty sure I heard somewhere that they only replaced the center part. I believe they said the reason it looked so bad was something about the temperature and weather caused the Bermuda grass to brown in storage before they could get it installed.

The grounds crew made the decision that with 3 games played on that turf in 15 days, the turf between the hash marks had to be replaced. The cold snap hurt the sod in transit and was why it appeared the way it did.

But yet many of yall will find a way to blame CGC.

Some of this crowd will blame Collins if their wife cheats on them. I've never seen anything like it. Bad sod is Collins fault because it's a gimmick lmao. I'm not making this up.

Don’t get your hopes up with any new Bermuda grass growing this time of the year. Bermuda, zoysia, etc are warm weather grasses and they go dormant as the soil temps are as cool as they are now.
