I am so glad we are going back to grass as we speak.

It's about time. That thing will pay for itself in no time and reap benefits in recruiting, fundraising, etc.

That looks like a really nice addition to the stadium.

I know, I should say something mocking you but that is a very solid addition to your sports program.

Seriously. The program has the entire state and the greater St. Louis region to themselves. No excuses to be lesser than in this division and conference.

Me too. Fewer injuries for Mizzou coming off of the annual cupcake game vs Arkansas while we head to a bowl game

Is Little Rock Turf or grass, because who knows when we see Fayetteville again?

NEVAR.

Seriously, that's dumb, tho. I'm sorry our stupid athletic department did that to y'all.

I get it though from the Arkansas POV. You have students away for Thanksgiving and you can also throw a bone to fans across the state that can’t make it to a game normally. I actually think it makes alot of sense and will probably be pretty cool, I’ll reserve judgement. As long as Fayetteville isn’t permanently ruled out, I’m cool with it.

It's an improvement, but could have been better.

A bummer significant space and resources went to the loophole of the previous alcohol sales rule, which now doesn't apply.

Hopefully they can repurpose the Bunker Club into team space in coming years instead of having a premium fan space that's essentially impossible to watch the game from.

Funny, Mizzou views Tennessee the same way Tennessee viewed Vandy in the 1980s

A nice cushion at the end of the schedule

Mizzou has had the diamonds in the end zone for like 50 years. It’s a tradition

The diamonds are good.

Unfortunately the field as a whole is too loud and that doesn't pair well with the diamonds.

I'm most certain Barry will roll out a cleaner looking field next time this turf comes out.

I didn't see the photo. It doesn't have a statue of Michael Brown, does it?

No

Instead it's a statue of a fat kid holding a hunger strike sign with money overflowing from his pockets.

Looks very nice. We enjoyed our visit for the 2012 game. Fans and students were friendly around town and on campus.

Better than the Colorado fans at the game in 2010. My 4 year old grandson was cursed and spit on by them at the game.
