Not a big fan of this decision. I think it's been well-documented that opposing teams feel the blue uniforms on a field of the same color represents an unfair advantage.

NCAA won't keep Boise State Broncos from wearing blue on blue field - ESPN

The NCAA's playing rules oversight panel denied the Football Rules Committee's proposal to require an institution's uniform to be different color than the field of play on Thursday -- a decision that will make Boise State and its fans happy.

I think all fields should be green. If, somehow, they get an offer to join the Big 12, it should be predicated on getting rid of the blue field.

Makes sense as far as discrimination goes. Green teams wear green unis on green turf.

Baylor wears Green Uniforms on grass or green turf at home, so does Tulane as it happens... so what's the big deal with BSU?

Baylor and Tulane are not the same exact color green of their turf.

I think it just proves that they don't think they can consistently win without a gimmick. They are who they are. Unless we schedule a home-and-home with them, I don't care.

I'm not interested in looking it up. For 40 years I've watched college footbal and have seen it often. If I had to guess, I'd go with Marshall and Ohio.
