Why is the outfield grass, particularly right and center field, in such bad shape? Looks like tractors rolled all over it and destroyed the grass.

One would think they could keep the grass nice.

Probably from tarps being on the grass. If it not raining, it cooks the grass.

Because if it wasn't, you people would find something else to complain about.

The grounds crew is no longer accustomed to tending to the field in June.

Why do all LSU groundcrews suck? Maybe we should just go to turf like Tejas

Maybe if they'd quit dancing like jackasses and do their job, the field wouldn't be an embarrassment on national television...

Probably because we had30 inches of rain the last few days. The field required maintenance and this is what you got. Not hard to figure out.

Infield looks good. Outfield doesn't. The tarp doesn't go into the outfield. Can our fanbase stop being such fricking idiots.
