Technically, BSU maintains that Dinwiddie walked on water, but during our game

in which we set an NCAA record for 16 punts, yes, he did seem to basically float around and be untouchable generally. He was also a massive, massive jerk, and I cheered loudly for TCU to beat them that year in I think the Liberty Bowl. He was good, and actually reminded me A LOT of watching Detmer play, but holy cow, he was not nice.

Apparently you haven't seen this. It's a huge advantage for them.

10/20/16 2:20pm

didn't the MTN west ban them from using it in conference games or something?

MWC also thought it was a good idea to not allow BYU and Utah to

Rocky Long was just pissed because his dad would show up to BYU/UNM games wearing BYU gear.

Exactly. It's a whiney-hiney-thumbsucker excuse. Only Sissies make it.

I don't necessarily buy into the advantage thing, but comparing a green team to

10/20/16 2:32pm

You don't see logic in comparing situations in which uniforms match the turf?

yewtsrnogood

10/20/16 2:37pm

CSU's green jerseys don't come close to matching the shade of the grass, however

No, but my middle initial is J. Also, I watched them on film. A lot. No problems

I think it obviously is harder for the players.

They are absolutely related. If green on green was an advantage, it would have

I never said it was an advantage, I even said I don't buy into the advantage

10/20/16 4:45pm

You are assuming the turf color change was about competitive advantage and not

I am more replying to the idea OP expressed about people saying it is advantageo

10/20/16 4:46pm

Most complaints (including mine) are it's an eyesore to watch on TV.

SCcoug

10/20/16 2:35pm

Which is valid. The competitive advantage thing is not.

Jake Kuresa disagrees:

Just a quick question on his quote - are O-lineman typically trying to see

gww687

10/20/16 4:12pm

That would explain why he didn't see them

I suppose if they are blitzing.

Maybe he has a sight condition that causes blue things to disappear. I don't.

yewtsrnogood

10/20/16 3:01pm

So maybe the complaints are valid?

Cam Jensen said the same thing yesterday. Harder to see players.

Why are they not allowed to wear blue in conference home games?

10/20/16 4:30pm

It's not the players who can't see. It's the coaches

dratax

10/20/16 5:37pm

I don't necessarily think it's an advantage because of being blue on blue.

Eddie

10/20/16 5:46pm

Okay, I'll admit this much

Dude, no, you can't. It is no different at all. I played there. It's the same.

yewtsrnogood

10/20/16 6:51pm

Completely agree.

10/20/16 6:57pm

That smurf turf is stoopid

10/20/16 8:01pm

Nope. It has nothing to do with the turf.

10/20/16 8:13pm

So BYU is a cupcake?

People are different....

It's just ugly. Instead of blue turf, I will call it the blue turd from now on.
