ZachTheZip Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 When the field bubbles up like that, it's finished. WMU now has an expensive turf replacement project on their hands. One that hopefully includes a revamp of their drainage systems while things are torn up. I'd be surprised if they can play another game on that turf this season.

pitside Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 They had vacuum trucks on the field most of the night removed up to a million gallons of water...there is no standing water on the field right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
94zipgrad Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 I’m no turf expert but I’m not sure after it bubbled like it did in a couple spots it would be safe. Wouldn’t it need restretched & laid out again to make sure it’s smooth & in proper shape to avoid injuries? Anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balsy Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 I'm willing to bet it will be streaming on the MAC website, or Akron Website or WMU website or a combination of those. That's my prediction at this point... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can do softball games, soccer matches, and whatever else, but can't do a football game on somewhat short notice?
