Treadwell injury, AUburn @ Mississippi 2014, caused the Wowdy Webels to switch back to real grass.
Of course, I understand it is much more expensive to cultivate grass, Vs. cost of plastic, divided by years of serviceable life.

Really not sure that injury was due to turf. His foot got caught up under the Auburn player.
Also, that's one injury. Freak injuries happen on grass, too. I did a little digging, and it appears that the total number of injuries seems to be even or actually in turf's favor. However, there does seem to be a higher number of ACL injuries on turf than grass.
