In the past 25 years, only one team has won the national title that played its home games on artificial turf that season:

2014 Ohio State



So, you boys and A&M and I guess Tejas and I think Iowa State, you all at went back and forth through the years, as we did. But none of us butchered the very ground our facility sat on.

But Mizzou did. They thought "Oh, artificial field turf in the Big 12, so okay, done and concrete it the frick up and we're done forever."

Mizzou I guess is the only one who did that, who's even remotely trying to be a southern program.


They're complaining in this thread about their mythical impossible ground work, but then they created something way worse. They screwed up their field and drainage capability, and then they built their new southern endzone seating over the top of it.

Sounds like they are poors and can’t afford to hire a proper grounds crew nor a company who could make grass work if changed over. They never heard of heated pipes. Never heard of specialized grasses for all states.

Nope, Mizzou is in a plot of the only land in the entire USA that cannot grow grass.
