Judging by the way LSU has played on the field turf in recent years, I'm all for it. They recruit fast players a rely on their speed, but when it rains and they are slipping around, they lose that advantage. Plus, if they are practicing on field turf, that's just one more reason to have it in TS.

FWIW I played on the new Nike turf, and, as far as traction and overall feel, I thought it was a lot better than natural grass.

The other sec opponents will also be faster on our turf. So, there is no advantage.

they are still going to practice on grass for the most part. Now if it rain and bowl practice, they can stay outside
