Oh, good... injecting external content into a discussion between two other people. Who could have expected that?

Just sayin'

OSU is taking fan submissions for how the new field turf should look

I don't have the chops, but I think they should make one EZ like the 2015 Fiesta Bowl and the other, though utilizing the 2015 Fiesta Bowl font, like the 1997 Rose Bowl. (I would accept the 2003 Fiesta Bowl EZ and Font as well) The Scarlet backed EZ should say "Ohio State" and the gray backed EZ should say "Buckeyes" The mid-field logo should remain the block O, but could be any of these:

Or

I was actually going to fire up Photoshop and work on a few ideas the next few weeks, and both of these were my first thoughts for midfield logos, though I'm partial to the first, possibly with a little extra similar to what they've done with the basketball court. I've got about 10 different ideas floating around for end zones (again pulling from some basketball court ideas and throwback jerseys for some of them).

I really like the idea of the endzones being gray on scarlet and scarlet on gray. I've said it before, but LSU, with the exception of the midfield logo, does it right.

Hopefully technology has progressed far enough for mankind to invent some grey paint that can finally be applied to field 3.0

Our colors aren't red, white and black.

I repeat...put some fucking grey in it this time

Just tried that with the primary colors specified in the Brand Guidelines and it doesn't work too well IMO, unfortunately. The outline helps, but it might need a lighter gray, and I think I'm going to try and stick with the style guide colors. I may play with the gray a bit more after I nail down some of my other ideas.

That Scarlet one is the way to go imo

That Scarlet one is the way to go imo

Also will fade more though.

If they won’t incorporate some grey, I would get behind a giant “Fuck *ichigan” somewhere on the field.

I think it’s important to be flexible and willing to compromise.

 

[ScriptOhio]

Please pick our design, we worked really hard on it.

 

[Bestbuck36]

I thought the new basketball court was fantastic. Why not something like that?

Maybe gray line numbers to incorporate more gray

I saw this one, albeit with 2 gray endzones, on 11W today. I was able to change the "Ohio State" endzone to gray on scarlet. I think this is pretty cool, and I really like the mid field logo, which I would never have thought of. Hats off to whoever's design I'm cribbing from.

I LOVE the main field on this one. I'm unsure about the end zones though

The script Ohio one would be hilarious if only for the anguished cries that would come out of Athens. I hope the red and grey striped field is just being thrown out there to gin up some attention because it's an abomination.
