re: SEC Football Playing Surfaces. Only 3 have turf!

Yeah, the turf of today is not the "Astroturf" of yesteryear. It has much more cushion and is much easier on the body. Many players prefer it to grass. Not as much slipping and sliding on turf.

I don't mind it all for foootball. For baseball, gotta have grass, but MLB is seeing more teams replacing grass with turf -- Miami, Texas and Arizona in addition to Tampa and Toronto, which have always had turf.

And the SECCG is played on turf every single year in Atlanta. Yet just about everyone on this forum loves that. Why no hate for the turf there? I'd love to see the game rotated, but now that it doesn't have much meaning anyway with the 12-team CFP, I don't care.
