The loud uniforms were not enough, apparently. Maryland somehow found the money to install a new football field at Byrd Stadium. It could get ugly. Tortoise shell designs have been hitting the Internet. Now a report suggests the new color could be “black or pewter.” We presume Randy Edsall will “let the captains decide.”

From WUSA9:

By now, most Maryland Terrapin football fans have heard the rumors that the field at Byrd Stadium was going to drastically change. Ever since, I was being told that the reason the field was currently being dug up was to apply new turf to the stadium. I have confirmed that is true, but also have discovered the field is getting a new look.

A source within the program told me that the turf being applied to the field will be either black or pewter.

This isn’t about us, you guys, mythical high school kids love pewter fields. This should eliminate any lingering delusions Maryland will ever be asked to join the Big Ten.
