New Turf -- Again -- For Buckeyes

For the second time this season, the grass in Ohio Stadium is being replaced. The Kentucky bluegrass that was installed immediately after the Buckeye’s win over Penn State has already worn out its welcome, becoming too wet and muddy for ideal playing conditions...

Hopefully this sod holds up better. It'll be interesting to see how the turf bought locally(Columbus) fairs compaired to that from else where(North Baltimore, Ohio). The other thing is, I would have thought that there would have been a drainage system in place that could suck excess water off the field to help dry it out.
