In my 5 years in Europe, every ESPN owned game was on ESPN player. I would expect it to show up.

Even if it doesn't it is nice to to have BYU TV back up and the live radio call streaming. It is an amazing world.

Watching the replay. BYU’s field is immaculate.

I was on the field after the game

oohYeah

The new artificial turf is so nice on the legs. I used to ref lacrosse on many of the HS fields in northern Utah,

As one who has lobbied for turf due to what you bring up- BYU’s grass feels like

I wish BYU had a field like Boise State. You don't get that blue with real grass

too bad there isn't a vomit icon because this would have earned it

I found it amusing that the donkey yewts TRADEMARKED the blue turf

Not enough thumbs down for this terrible, terrible, opinion.

Mitty

Have you ever been tackled on artificial turf? Its more painful than falling

Yunit

9/17/19 7:16am

Painful in that you get a carpet burn sure . . . But if it hurts that much you

Soccer is a better sport, so yeah.

Benfica1

9/17/19 8:31am

Than football? You should be slapped

TBabyCougs

9/17/19 11:11am

Much more fun to play, not as easy to watch by the soccer-ignorant.

Benfica1

9/17/19 11:32am

I played both. There's nothing about Soccer that is better than Football

TBabyCougs

9/17/19 12:04pm

I played both. Yes there is. Both are fun. Time to move on.

Benfica1

9/17/19 12:32pm

And safer.

Benfica1

9/17/19 11:33am

??? pain is relative. I was comparing it to natural grass.

Yunit

9/17/19 8:40am

It sucks to play any sport on. Soccer is the worst.

dizthewiz

9/17/19 10:34am

This is 100% not true

shakarocks

9/17/19 9:07am

100%? Artificial turf is more consistent, I agree, but it is still a more

Yunit

9/17/19 10:13am

There's a layer of granular rubber

shakarocks

9/17/19 10:25am

I actually practiced on the newer turf that they have now days (back in 2002)

Yunit

9/17/19 12:59pm

Where?

shakarocks

9/17/19 1:16pm

This. The new stuff was not around in 2002.

Cougstreak

9/17/19 1:30pm

BYU practice fields. Lockerroom was still in the field house but they had put in

Yunit

Mitty

Plus "carpet" burns and the sun heats it up hotter.

Mitty

9/17/19 1:51pm

The sun is a factor

I hated playing lacrosse on the turf fields. The rubber gets everywhere and

not to mention real grass is also cooler than fake grass on those hot days

Just signed up for ESPN+, no BYUUSC replay...

Coug76

9/16/19 9:27pm

I recorded the game

CaliWG

9/16/19 9:29pm

It's also on the BYUtv app

GigantorCat

9/16/19 9:45pm

It’s on the ESPN app, so you can watch it if you have ESPN+

therock

9/16/19 9:52pm

Also on ESPN 3 if you have sling.

here's to hoping

9/17/19 1:48am

Currently in Europe. Can't use ESPN or ESPN+ app here. I watched...

jollaksentie

True. Plus, since I'm in Europe, the game is late at night here, I can...

lbmango

Looked again today, and the game is there!

lbmango

9/17/19 1:30pm

I’ll take the natural grass over the bright-colored end zone and logos on turf.

ataylor

9/16/19 9:29pm

But what if the whole field was bright blue!

bluesloth

9/16/19 9:58pm

Utah LOVES the bright artificial look.

Punk Philosopher

9/17/19 3:56am

And I wonder about all the chemicals involved w/ the in-fill of shredded tires

MatthiasPhunkHausen

9/17/19 10:19am

I root against any program, college or pro, that won't do real grass. What

Mitty

9/16/19 10:21pm

^^^ this guy doesn't mess around with his opinions

ThetaSigma

9/16/19 11:30pm

A lot of big time blue-blood programs use turf

Goliath

9/16/19 11:44pm

That's their prerogative, though nothing screams small-time like a fake

Mitty

9/17/19 1:39pm

Depends on location.

Cougstreak

9/17/19 6:09am

Does it though?

Nathanael Greene

9/17/19 8:17am

It does.

Cougstreak

9/17/19 1:35pm

ND went back to grass because they realized fake turf SUCKS, so...

Mitty

9/17/19 1:42pm

Uh no they did not. They barely went from grass to the nice new turf recently.

Cougstreak

9/17/19 6:49pm

Well, you could look it up. Here, this came out a few months ago:

Mitty

9/18/19 7:31pm

You realize that was an April Fools Joke? I was on the field a month ago.

Cougstreak

9/18/19 7:56pm

Had no idea, assumed reports weren't lying. Very sad. Look forward to the day

Mitty

9/19/19 5:08pm

Haha.

Cougstreak

9/19/19 7:15pm

Has Green Bay had field problems late in the season?

Nathanael Greene

9/19/19 7:56pm

Great points. Fake turf is just a cop out move made by the lazy, greedy, and

Mitty

Walter gets it.

CougarThug

9/17/19 10:45am

Remember the first year that the new grass was used? Big chunks of it would dislodge leaving patches of open soil.

lightmann

9/17/19 12:20am

Rough start, glorious maximus end result.

MatthiasPhunkHausen

9/17/19 10:20am

I might be remembering wrong, but I recall the FSU coach being pretty upset

Flyski

9/17/19 10:33am

It was — right after. I was at that game and it happened a lot. Miserable game to drive through the night for.

lightmann

9/17/19 12:32pm

Coming from AZ with a son playing HS football, I think it's crazy how many high

chazen

9/17/19 12:34am

It's cheaper to have field turf and the new stuff is far safer than old astro turf

Adrielle

9/17/19 5:06am

I don’t blame high schools because of the cost

CaliWG

9/17/19 8:03am

Tennessee was even better. It was so real it looked fake.

I’m the opposite. I love turf. Always have.

GidolanKeep

9/17/19 7:36am

Definitely, a faster surface

TBabyCougs

9/17/19 8:18am

Does this really come as a surprise to anyone?????

BYUheaven

9/17/19 8:10am

I still think we should color in the oval Y and the endzones

crm48

9/17/19 8:54am

The one downside of grass. Doesn't it kill it when they do that, so they only do it the last game?

BlueBlood94

9/17/19 1:25pm

My 5 yr old and I got to play on the field the day before the game,

On the field after the game: it is like a putting green. Had the chance before
