I have misplaced my pants.
That's funny because I got a reservation for this weekend. My son and I went to the Ohio State - Texas game and we got there SUPER early. (I never know how early to leave or predict the traffic.) The stadium scoreboard had an ad for this. So I got home and looked into it, and made this our Christmas gift to a bunch of the family.
I'm hoping it's as awesome as I want it to be.

Ohio State Installing New Turf at Ohio Stadium
Ohio State will install a new playing surface at Ohio Stadium, featuring Shaw Sports Turf's Forge Series™ system and installed by The Motz Group. The new field will continue to be sponsored by Safelite.
Shaw's Forge Series™ is a system-level product line designed to meet NFL standards, featuring Game ON® technology that integrates field markings directly into the turf.
Sports Field Turf Technology (GAME ON® by The Motz Group)
- What it is: In sports venue construction, GAME ON is a proprietary manufacturing technology created by The Motz Group.
- How it works: Instead of manually cutting and gluing lines, numbers, or logos into synthetic turf fields (which creates weak seams), this technology tufts logos, messaging, and hash marks directly into the turf carpet during fabrication.
- Benefits: It reduces field seams by roughly 50% (from 12,000 linear feet to ~5,600 on a standard field), which significantly decreases maintenance, minimizes waste, and increases surface safety.
The installation of the new turf reflects Ohio State's long-term approach to keeping Ohio Stadium both game-ready and visually aligned with the Buckeye brand as this now gives Ohio State staff the ability to assist in branding opportunities for themed games.

Meet me out back of the Duke station on Maysville Pike...
Here's hoping the amount of players slipping goes way down.
