Max Power Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 The checkboards at Tennessee and Navy remind me of the one season, 1997, when Northwestern went with checkerboard end zones. I appreciated them trying something different- for NU- but it didn't feel right.There are so many plain field designs in the NCAA and, especially, in the NFL. I like anything that shows a little creativity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wyopokes2 Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I always like how the rose bowl paints the boundaries in team colors. It makes for a great looking field usually. Unless it's green like Oregon's was. Makes me wonder how a Volt, Boise State-esque field would look Michigan v Texas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandMooreArt Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 i like Heinz Field. its an old school grid-iron. both endzones should use the slash design. not every team can pull it off but it fits PIT GRAPHIC ARTIST BEHANCE / MEDIUM / DRIBBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oaklandhusker Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I kinda hate all the NFL fields, not because they're bad, but because they're boring. Come on! Do something with that space! Maybe not what Boise did, but coloring a stripe ever 5 yards might be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOldRoman Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 That looks like crap. THey would only do that after a college game for which they painted the teams' names on the field. That color block is just to cover up the other letters. The Eagles do this after the Army/Navy game. They should either not put the other teams' names on the field or paint the entire endzone afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thespleenenator Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Yeah, homer pick Still though, the alternating shades of green just scream Oregon. Only the Ducks can pull this off. Besides Oregon, I really like LSU's and Boise's fields.Winnona State also has a great field Why you make fun of me? I make concept for Auburn champions and you make fun of me.

andycumbee19 Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I liked FSU's better in the old school '90s with the spear going the length of the endzones. That one really was cool design wise. Suprised more teams dont do something besides school names. ie how Maryland does now.My gf is an IU fan cuz she's from there and she was saying that she doesnt like their field. The letters need to be enlarged in the endzones so they dont look like they have such a kerning issue. They need new field turf, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSU151 Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I LOVE ECU's Midfield LogoThis is the longest logo in FBS. I think it spans over 30 yards.Florida State's and Clemson's fields looked a lot better with white endzones, but both schools ditched them, unfortunately. LSU's endzones looked better with the old 70s-style thick lettering. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

jc... Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Any field that does not have a white 6-foot border around it loses points in my book. It just looks cleaner if done the NFL way. The colored border for the Rose Bowl game is confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
