So as with my post in the hoops forum its time to come up with some off season fun new designs for our fields and uniforms. ..
I agree with a few on here that the endzone should be painted in again (ala early 1980s). Also, last season we used "Falcons" in the new font but the end zone looked bare. . .now that we have the new word marks lets put "Bowling Green" in the end zone. . .
As always your comments and suggestions are encouraged. . . I love making these things and if anyone has a suggestion on this or new avatars or wallapaper or whatever let me know. . .
Now before we all argue that we can't color the field, it's not painted. The brown is the dirt. It is natural. They can't argue against it.

I believe after Boise, school colored sports turf is no longer allowed (unless of course it's green).

Couldn't find any rule from the NCAA, but you could very well be right. All I'm asking for is Orange Numbers and an orange background in the endzones. Is that too much to ask?

DD....you really need to submit this to Krebs. That would look fantastic on gameday. And this is probably a dream, but imagine this.....the view of Cleveland Browns stadium painted up like that from the Spirit of Akron. That would be quite the marketing photo for the university!
This idea of emulating Boise State -- well, I'm on record as being against that.
But if there is no way out of it -- I'd make it brown.
I thought I heard the NCAA won't allow another colored field, and that Boise State's field is grandfathered in. Not sure about that one, though.[/quote]
Like I said, it wouldn't be painted. Dirt is natural ground so they can't argue that!!

Well you know it usually ends up looking like that by November anyway...
