Orange field

[OrangeInKy]

Good god that is the most ridiculously gimmicky nonsense I've ever looked at. I would be embarrassed for us if that happened.

Gimmicky nonsense has become one of our things lately

 

[Fijivol72]

Not no but hell no

Is there truth to an orange field vs Nama this year

Please no.

 

[Iam4utalways]

That'd hurt your eyes.

Incorrect. The Study shows that starring into a "sea of orange" for hours at a time ,can increase , life satisfaction.

Go Vols!

Deputy, if you have the power to make this happen, please do.

This is not a "gimmick", this is a show of pride, in representing our colors.

Go Vols!

 

[mdrew27]

Please yes.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

We aren't Boise St.

Don't think colored turf is allowed any longer.

It is. The NCAA declined to make it officially illegal. However there probably is an SEC rule that Tennessee would have to get approval from the league, and I'm guessing the league would say "Uhhhh...no".

Just pull up the grass and spray paint the dirt orange. It would be a vast improvement for Neyland's turf conditions.

I am stunned anyone likes this idea. I am by no means a traditionalist and scared of changes happening. Loved the gray uniforms, love the checkerboard sleeves, love the mountain sillouhette. This looks completely ridiculous. It makes the checkerboard end zones practically disappear and it would give me a headach if i had to stare at it for 3 hours trying to figure our what was going on. If our fans/player/students want something changed, surely to god they can come up with something better than this. It looks more like a high school field that's dead in the winter than it does the small mountain west conference schools were apparently trying to steal ideas from.

What's next ... A game at a racetrack

 

[Crew]

Nope.

There's always a part of any crowd that will like something awful. Don't worry, it's not going to happen. Gray uniforms and all orange is about as crazy as this team will get.

You mean the dirt we're going to bury you in next fall?

Oh yeah....I said it. Tough offseason talk has begun.

Home field advantage. Fool.

For real. How many tackles did the rye grass make last year? Someone forgot to add it to the stat sheet.

 

[Creeker]

There's no truth to it. Some guy posted that on Facebook. He had made some others with a white field. Idk how the rumor about it being against Bama started.

Sounds good on paper, but would never work, too many people would want to go, wouldnt be worth the head ache. If some how it would set a record of some sort, largest and loudest, it might have a chance.

Some Baffoon would want a race going while they were playing the game, your safe for now, but don't count the Orange Turf out yet, the Deputy is on the case.

Go Vols!

There you go again. It's not about the tackles, it's a bout the missed tackles. Fool.

Yeah, so silly. After that I guess the NFL will start playing games in London.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

That's the most hideous field I've ever seen! Leave it the way it is.

Actually don't leave it the way it is; fix it, but leave it green.

Disagree. That grass didn't miss tackles.

Oh yea, definitely fix it. But leave the field green. We're not Boise St.
