Ohio State seeking input from fans for new field turf in Ohio Stadium

Do you have a flair for design and love football? Have you ever looked at Ohio Stadium’s field turf design and thought that you could add a little “pop of color” to it?

If so, you are in luck because the fine folks at Ohio State are looking for fan input for the field turf design for next season. The program already announced the plans to install new field turf for the start of the 2022 season after many questioned the condition of the playing surface, and now it looks like some creativity might be in order for the next design.

Ohio State first went to field turf for the 2007 season and has had the same design ever since, including the last time the turf was replaced in 2014.

If you’d like to submit ideas, you can do so on on the team’s website from Friday, October 15, through Friday, October 29. After that time period, an internal department panel will review the submitted designs and ultimately create the new look of the field.

Submissions can be made in the form of photographs or PDFs. Children are also encouraged to have fun with the design and submit their ideas as well. Downloadable templates are also included at the link above.

Lastly, some fan submissions will be shared on social media from the official Ohio State athletics accounts: @OhioStAthletics on Twitter and Instagram and Facebook/buckeyes, so keep an eye out.

We can’t wait to see what the final product is. Maybe a big, crossed-out M could adorn the middle of the field, no?
