You need to fix up your shite stadium before you come into the league. It's embarrassing

Looks like a soccer field tbh. Doesn't have any of the boldness of our turf. Look at the depth and hues of our green. Then look at yours.

Football was originally played without blacks. Do you wanna go back to then too?

Nothing like painted plastic on top of concrete. Sweet.

The lines and graphics haven’t been painted.
The photo is at dusk—under an overcast sky.
The resolution of the Kyle Field photo is a much lower saturation level.

I’m far more concerned with how it feels anyway.

I could pull up some 2pm sunny afternoon photos, but there’s no need; grass is superior.

Anyone who has ever played on both will almost always prefer grass unless it is a mudbowl like the 2010 capital one bowl.

Have you ever felt the finest imported artificial playing surface (APS) money can buy?

Back in the day, there was nothing more plantation-like than watching George Washington (yes, that was the groundskeeper's name) drive that pathetic vacuum over the infield, and drag his little wooden rake around the cutouts at the Disch. What an abomination. It must truly embarrass the horn fans who haven't burned all their brain receptors on Willy Weed that your two prime outdoor sports are played on plastic.

While its probably better for us that you keep making that mistake, I think I'd rather your AD overrule the bean counters and opt for the real stuff before joining the big leagues. I just hate watching games on the stuff that much.

Do I like it? No. It must truly embarrass Aggies that we won more games in Omaha this year than you have in your entire history. Your baseball program is a joke, ours is a national power...nice little moral victory though.

Seems they missing the SEC logo... oh wait, ya not in the SEC.

Damn, can't someone just pay the pest control contract and get rid of these bugs until they are on an SEC schedule.

Yes, turf is better because if your going to have a broken bone you always want it to be a Compound Fracture and have that Bone come popping out of the skin instead of a partial fracture from grass.

It does look nice. It will be interesting to see how it performs.

On a side note....you guys haven't lived until you play on Tennessee's field. There is a reason we all call in KneeLand.
