I say it every year,  Michigan State's field looks so good under the lights.  Best in BIG.    Only LSU looks this good.  Penn St is pretty good too.
Real grass always looks better.  That's why PSU is right there.  FieldTurf has a weird reflection that makes it look cheap under the lights.

Its why I don't hate the Chiefs being elite.  I love watching them host prime time games

So, Georgia Tech scored more points in it's first half without Jeff Sims than it scored in 10 of 11 whole FBS games last year

Yes, grass definitely is superior, though Northwestern and Purdue looks abysmal under the lights.   Some of these places just look better.   Usc for instance doesn't look right.   The low pitch looks good in daytime but at night it looks so flat.    Wisconsin too flat, looks dingy  Ohio state too high.

Is there some non monetary reason why the Land Grant game is being played at Ford Field this year?

No.  But nobody goes to that Thanksgiving weekend game when MSU hosts, so take the money.

Well, the first half was ugly, but that wound up being a way more comfortable win than I expected.

Impressed with the halftime defensive adjustments.  Granted that was against a 
Middle of the pack MAC team,.that didn't have a second pitch.  Once they figured out that that guy, Lamar Jackson comparisons aside, couldn't throw the ball at all, they shut him down.  The one touchdown came on a completely broken coverage, where I could have hit the guy.  No big 10 team will ever feature a quarterback with that little ability to throw

Yes. They easily beat the spread.  Noah Kim looked really good once he got settled in.  A good start overall.

Anyone else think the new Fox Sports graphics look like the icons to select your team from like NCAA 04?
