Their field sucks arse. Keith Marshall, Malcolm, Mitchell, Nick Chubb all tore ACL's there.

Kneeland is a real thing

Justin Scott-Wesley and Michael Bennett are better examples for UGA. Blown out knees running straight down the field with no one around them.
Mitchell got hurt at Clemson so not sure why he was included.

UTK has a very good Turf program, but apparently the Groundskeeper does not use most of the techniques taught at the school, so it looks like shite. I say he needs to get fired, but that would make too much sense

By your logic there should be nothing but walkons left playing for Tennessee since they have to play half their games there.

Nope.
better check Chubb again.
Neyland has always been the worst field in the SEC. They tried Astro turf around 1970. Total disaster.
Nothing they have tried has improved the field.
The brick wall in the corners of the end zone is what will end up killing a player, the field only maims.

Jones talked about it in the press conference yesterday, really tried to avoid saying how he really felt about the field conditions.
More and more people are complaining about the field.

We planned it all year as the only way to stop the Vandy juggernaut

At least they have real grass now.

It is all of the body parts from the body farm coming to the surface after a hard rain.

How was Chubbs injury the turfs fault at all? I agree the field's not great, but I fail to see how it played a factor in his injury

No they don't. They have spray painted the dirt green to give the illusion of grass.

I like it how they add on to the stadium by painting the numbers on the seats closer together.

Hell I hope it somehow gets worse and worse over the next two weeks. VU isn't going to score a lot of points and if Dobbs is limiting running the ball that offense is not very threatening at all. Anything can happen in a low scoring late November game.

Georgia fans are all in here so mad.
