That’s cool! I’ll be interested to check yours out during your next televised night game.


You might not see much on TV. I dont think they are allowed to do it much while play is going on and they usually go to commercial in any break in play.

I guess it is cool, but is it just colored lights? Nothing wrong with it, I just don't see the big deal. I thought LED lights on a car's undercarriage was cool the first time I saw it as a kid. I couldn't understand why everyone wouldn't want that.

Its actually really cool when game play is not going on and they use it to kind of light of the campuses

Pretty funny that Alabama paid millions to get LED lights as well but they don’t have any night games.

It's funny that Georgia copied Alabama on this but it's going to be Georgia that is able to do it 1st since Alabama plays an all day games

Dang y’all got that too? Looks good. We’re still waiting on a night game, but Bryant Denny is going to look awesome whenever we finally get to see it LINK



Is that why Saban is so pissed about those noon starts?

Are you saying you can’t see them from field level at Sanford? Tell me more about your concept of topography please. Because you’ll be proving my point when you fail to correctly tell me about said concept.



The trees are visible because Sanford is built into a ravine. There is nothing really to be done about them being visible except cut them down, which most people would not want. Most people like trees.

Meh...Arkansas has been doing this for quite a few years. At least two years prior to the last expansion.


But Arkansas doing it is like the tree falling in the forest with no one around thing.

I feel pretty safe in saying that the vast majority of people would not want that.

I’m just kidding with Arky people saying “meh....we did it first”. There’s a reason they light theirs up on Friday nights.

I’ll be in Sanford Saturday to see ours in person.

UNC's stadium is a perfectly nice place to watch a football game.

ETA: The association of trees with the ACC is very bizarre tbh. There are trees everywhere, not just in Chapel Hill or Charlottesville.

I can only imagine purple lights around Tiger Stadium during a night game


LSU should do UV black lights. Would look awesome since yall always wear white.

Migraine territory. Looks like the lighting from Carrie.

This is such a weird thing to get hung up on. What kind of fan goes to a game and can't watch it because they can't stop staring at trees. What are you...a dendrophiliac?

Okay the Bama one looks incredible. That would be awesome to see at the Swamp. We need this.
