That track is pretty stupid. Good to have new turf though.

I bet it will be fast as we are building a fast team. This is our chance at a undefeated year if Reesing's legs stay healthy.

Are they putting in grass, or is it still that "new turf" or whatever it's called?

LAJayhawk, it's field turf. it's not artificial turf from the 80's but it's not real grass. there's some articles about it and what it's made of on here. same stuff that's on the new practice fields. ocjhawk, wish I could agree with you. if we had this year's team with next years schedule I would. Still going to be a good year. Rock Chalk
