After Montana played at EWU last week the players said they didn't even notice the red turf after a few minutes.. I wonder what OSU is thinking here.. seems like they should focus on stopping Kellen Moore, not worrying about f-word turf. The blue turf, if anything, will distract the Beavers during practice. Oh well, when some donor has $8000 to piss away, I guess you can do what you want.

Not too many teams deck out in all green to match their turf. Mich St, Marshal, maybe 1 or 2 others.
But I agree, this will help Boise get into OSU's head all week.

The psychology of colors reminds me of Coach John Hayden Fry, who head coached at SMU, North Texas State, and Iowa. At Iowa he had the entire visitor's locker room painted pink. Everything from ceiling to floor, sinks, toilets, just everything.
That's one thing I'd take from Fry, making the visitor's locker room a sick color.
Don't like blue or red turfs though.

I Think it makes sense... only if the offense is wearing blue in practice... Boise blends into their field it is hard to see on TV... IMO
