I hate this colored turf. It was bad enough with Boise State using it as a gimmick and wearing matching uniforms to blend in, but now you have a team trying to copy it. I really think the NCAA should outlaw it, and next time either of these schools change their surface they are not allowed to continue this assault on the eyes.

Plus, it is animal cruelty up there in Idaho with all the birds flying into that damn smurf turf.

it's not directly on concrete.

there's clearly a big black pad of some type underneath the red turf.

Man I wish there was a message board on that turf cam site

I'd love to read what people are saying


This one's awesome:

I think you guys should name the field "Redrum." Play the clip and have all the students chant it as the opponents come out of the tunnel. Could also chant it on 3rd downs too. Great potential here.


I have to say that red turf is . Now I'm going to have nightmares about Oregon taking their "colorful" unforms over there and the fashion police coming in to break it up and then . . . who knows!

I am also wondering how many people that stadium holds. Looks smaller than Olympia (in Baton Rouge) where we played in highschool back in the day.

what's worse than the color is how it's old school astro turf


no it's not. You can see the black padding underneath the long blades of fake grass. Then they sprinkle the rubber shite in on top of it. Old astroturf had no blades or anything

Had this not been on the MSB I would have expected Christina Hendricks nudes.

It won't be as bright when they put the rubber down, still going to be ugly as hell though.
