Only One Team in the Sun Belt DOESN'T play on turf

[AubOrange]

At first I thought something glitchy happened and suddenly my MTSU dynasty got the dirty uniforms turned off somehow. But, no, actually EVERY team in the conference, except FAU, play on turf. So if you want to see dirty uniforms in your dynasty, the Sun Belt is not the way to go.

Oh, and bowl games? Sun Belt #1? New Orleans Bowl in the Super Dome -- Turf. Sun Belt #2? Papajohns.com Bowl at Legion Field -- Turf. Sun Belt #3? Little Ceasar's Pizza Bowl at Ford Field -- Turf.

Maybe every small conference is like that, I don't know. Maybe none of the little schools can afford to pay somebody to cut grass, who knows.

There's no point to this thread. Just thought it was funny.

Ha! I was wondering about why my FIU dynasty never got dirty uniforms except for when I played FAU. Good find.

How many teams in all of fbs have real grass now? I'm still mad about Iowa going to field turf. Doesn't seem right that the youngsters that go on the field for the first time can't grab a blade of grass if they want to.

That was my question too. I would guess that the majority of FBS schools play on field turf.

Quite a few SEC schools play on natural grass. Uniforms are dirty everywhere when playing NCAA 11 in SEC country!

I can say that every team in the SEC uses grass except for Arkansas and Ole Miss, and Ole Miss just switched like last year I think.

I did a quick search and this is the best info I could find:

Quote:

More than 60 top NCAA universities currently play their home games on FieldTurf including Nebraska, Ohio State, Michigan, Texas, West Virginia, Washington, Oregon, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas State, Boston College, Indiana, Minnesota, Missouri, Texas Tech, Rutgers, Syracuse, Cincinnati and Louisville.

Of course it only says NCAA and not FBS and it only says "top NCAA universities" so who knows if they're including Sun Belt teams and the like.

Daaang, all those teams? If that's the case, then I guess only us SEC guys are enjoying these beautiful dirty uniforms.

Reason #452 Why the SEC is the Dominant Conference: We can cut our own grass.
