After decades of playing on an artificial surface, Nebraska football is planning to install natural grass inside Memorial Stadium. Kaleb Henry, July 13, 2024 The days of an artificial surface inside Memorial Stadium are coming to an end.
In a recent interview with The Athletic, Nebraska athletic director Troy Dannen said the plan is to replace the FieldTurf with natural grass. Dannen said the change could potentially be done in time for the 2026 season, meaning just two more years on FieldTurf. But first, they will have to replace the surfaces on the fields outside the new Osborne Legacy Complex. That will come next year as the Huskers practice on natural grass in preparation, and as a test, for the stadium change. "I think grass is safer than turf," coach Matt Rhule said earlier this year. Nebraska has played on an artificial surface since 1970. Comments are closed.
