See for yourself. I don't actually think it looks that bad.

Im not surprised...I mean lets see...Boise State has blue turf and they are now annually a top 5 team...Eastern Washington switched to red turf and won the national championship...not saying that UCA is gonna end up 11-0 or anything but it certainly is an interesting rendering

i thought the NCAA had outlawed this after Eastern Washington did it.... still looks like a cool rendering

Its a common myth... I thought so too until I did my research on it. The NCAA has no regulations regarding field color.

The NFL took preemptive action recently and prohibited NFL teams from going to any turf color but green. Perhaps aimed at the aqua-and-orange possibilities in Miami. :)

I was sure you were going to comment on the color scheme- or that stripes don't go with solids.

For the record: I would go with your opinion as an authority on the matter

Medic, should I apply to be your fashion consultant and interior decorator?

And for the record, traditionally speaking, stripes and solids have been able to compliment each other in the past, though more modern looks make stripes and stripes ok (see: http://www.ehow.com/way_5184985_shirt-s ... suit_.html). Just be sure to the patterns are different enough, and that, above all else, the colors work well together.

As for the color scheme, I am not a fan of UCA's colors, but at least it's not the nightmare that a maroon and orange striped field would be (and I say that as a VT fan).

Hmm, kid and pet friendly...I can definitely do that. I tend to be more conservative in my style, so you don't have to worry about anything extremely crazy.

So your saying you liked what I picked out for your living room? I thought the armoir and Warhol chair were brilliant and inspired choices. Two snaps with a twist from me!

Also, I HATE the one at E Washington LOVE the SMURF Turf and really like the alternating C. Ark turf. Not sure what we should do with ours if anything. Maybe a big picture of the REVEREND at mid field? I have ALWAYS thought we need to go stained glass window on the tower so we could copy Notre Dame but ours would be Touchdown Jerry!!! I'd even contribute!

The '70s called: They want their color scheme back. Also with that much white, Pat Boone might take issue! Or we could get him to perform his "In a Metal Mood" album at half time!

technically, if the 70's liberty was calling for their color scheme back, it would be green and gold
