No. I consider them a grass team, which is why I did not include them or any of the other teams that have that type of grass. If I recall, don't the Broncos, Eagles, and Texans (pre-2015) also have the plastic-reinforced grass that you described at their respective stadiums? I forgot something, here's where I got most of the information from https://www.stadiumsofprofootball.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Other way around, it's mostly natural grass with some nylon fibers running beneath it to keep it from getting too torn up. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually looks clean, doesn't die or get chewed up, etc. What really trips me out is brown colored turf that colleges use for the infield. I forget which school it was, but I recall a college team with that type of field...using a black mound, of all things.

Eagles have something similar, but the percentage of grass to turf is way slanted towards grass. You’d never tell, because the corners of the end zones are basically dead by the end of the year, and the hash area is torn up if Temple plays there before. im not sure it provides any benefit, and they may have actually done away with it, considering they resod during the season now.
