that that's going to be the end product come season opener.
Well, yeah, that's not the finished product, but you can tell that it's going to look the same as the previous version.
I actually like our end-zone design. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I agree. After seeing the photoshop pics people made last week with the end zones filled-in blue or maize, I think I prefer what we've got. I might've liked the Block M to get a little bigger, but I'm not heartbroken it didn't.
I did notice that the yardage numbers are fatter now. Kinda like it I guess but it's not like it's a huge change.
Are you sure the numbers are changed? They look the same to me.

I'm disturbed that you felt the need to throw "actually" in there. Are there really that many people that want to mess with a classic design?
The only different on the field is the green turf is the same throughout. Before, it had different shades of green every 5 yards.
From my understanding, the whole field probably won't get a new one for 6-7 years. But, they can easily change endzone before. I believe RR wanted to keep it the same because he didn't want to change everything, having 2 losing seasons already.
the new field looks very nice. looks like the block M is a little bigger. will look good on game days
I was not aware that the letters could be moved. I always thought they had to carefully insert colored turf. FieldTurf confuses me no matter how many times I read about how it works. I really need to just get onto the field some day and see it for myself. 2011 OSU game maybe?
last nights letters were just cut-outs put on top of the field for the sake of the tours. they were being held down with cinder blocks.
For the end zone to say "WOLVERINES"? Yeeesh. The chorus of The Victors?
Just looking for that Admiral Ackbar toilet.
Looks nice, but who are the Chefs?
Great Oogly Moogaly.
Awsome commercial.
After seeing the picture of the askew lettering, we should invest in some shape-shifting turf that moves the goalline back when the other team approaches and moves forward as we get closer
The end zone design didn't need to be changed so I'm happy.
Obviously the letters haven't been sewn in yet. Anyone remember the Michigan Stadium cam that used to be online? Before the 2003 season, the letters in the end zone were placed like in these photos but in the north end zone, the "N" was backwards. That led to hundreds of phone calls from UM fans to the athletic department about the backwards "N."
It wasn't long before the stadium cam was taken down for good after that.
...brighter green turf. The Big House is going to look absolutely incredible this season. Truly amazing for a stadium of its vintage.
That turf reminds me of the "living green" carpet from the Law Library.
Combined with hallucinogens, that place is crazy. ;~)
Those crooked end zone letters are really going to give us that unique look.
have crooked letters? anyone else notice thiss?
Please use CAPITAL LETTERS once in a while, maybe throw in a spelchek, and, if it isn't too much trouble, try reading the other posts and/or the source article before placing foot in mouth.
Thanks.
I'm an idiot. And, this isn't helping too much in adding much to the conversation. The field looks so much better than a month or so ago when the field was completely torn up. It's pretty cool how fast the stadium has been making progress.
Much better, but the grammar police will still eat up that second sentence.
Like you...? ;)
