You guys that keep wanting n orange field are silly. We have another school color, and a white field would not be so damn hot.  We can make the lines orange. 

With a white field, we could wear our storm trooper uniforms and then run some cool trick plays. They won't see what hit 'em.

We can’t wear our road whites at home...we’re working on some predator technology to make the players invisible though so that could be nice

Back in the early 80s I proposed a linear football accelerator so that we could generate wave-particle behavior with our football.  Providing destructive interference in opponents footballs and constructive interference realizing the football into our players hands.  We just needed the technology to accelerate footballs to near light speed and shove them through a grating of about 3 angstroms.

now is the time!  We have the technology.

We could also invent Flubber and give it to Chris Beard.

Well, they have completed the room with no sound, surely they've gotten this technology down too, by now.

Imagine if we had real turf and Caden Sterns didn't slip on that 4th down call and we got the stop

entire turdjectory changed

Then again, I think we are in a much better spot now with SS and Flood. Developing players has been an issue.

— Texas will have new field turf in DKR for the 2021 season, but that doesn’t mean a grass field is out of the question in the near future, sources tell Horns247.

It was time to replace the field turf in Royal-Memorial Stadium, because the current turf was installed in 2010. The shelf life of field turf is typically 10 years.

The timing wasn’t right to go to a grass field at this point because of all the construction going on in the south end, sources said.

But if Steve Sarkisian wants a grass field in the near future, it will be done, sources told Horns247.

Sarkisian has been asked about whether he’d prefer a grass field over field turf, and his concern about a grass field was wear and tear.

Sarkisian said because he likes the team to practice and do off-season workouts on the field inside the stadium, the concern would be keeping the grass field in optimal condition for game days.

The Texas coach noted that some of the top football stadiums, such as the Dallas Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium (which has also been the home of the Big 12 football title game), has field turf.

Texas' $200 million renovation of the south end of DKR is due to be completed in August - in time for the 2021 season.

The Burnt Orange Club

Quote

This fall, Home is Where the Horns Are and we can't wait to see y'all back at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. While longstanding traditions and a familiar sea of Longhorns clad in burnt orange make the Forty Acres feel like home on gamedays, we've also gotten reacquainted with the comforts of household gamedays since March 2020. While many of us are ready to get back out and back to normal, access to snacks and beverages just a few steps away from the game (albeit on TV) is a convenience that we couldn't leave behind. The South End Zone's loge boxes and living room seating offer a perfect blend of a traditional DKR gameday with the easy amenities of your household's living room gameday, and we carried that convenience into the premium club space that seating in these areas provides you access to.

The Burnt Orange Club will offer premium, all-inclusive food and non-alcoholic beverage options, highlighted by a show kitchen within the indoor club space. At nearly 5,000 square feet, the club is accessible by under 500 season ticket holders, making it one of the most exclusive spaces in all of DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium. It also features a playful family room for fans with small children, so there is truly something for every member of your Longhorn Family in the Burnt Orange Club. 

Access to the Burnt Orange Club is included in annual Loge Box and Living Room season ticket costs, and there are still a few remaining. To learn more about existing availability or to schedule a tour of the Burnt Orange Club, call 512-471-4439 or submit your contact information through the link below:

The renderings show the H right in the middle of the goal poast which is centered to the longhorn head.

 

Perhaps they will adjust the field but I'm not sure how that will look on the other end. It could also be because the opening at the NEZ is wider. Perhaps they can put a tarp over the opening on that end to not make it appear so weird?

Don't sit in either end zone...and you won't notice it.
