Toyota Stadium Playing Surface

If im not mistaken, this will be the first game we played on natural grass all year, and the first time since Sep of 2019 when we played at Cal.

I'm pretty sure Cal had turf. I was at the game, but don't really remember it being grass.

Already looks like a lot of wear on the field after one quarter. Not sure how well this is going to hold up.

Cal has turf. We haven't played on grass since the 2017 CUSA Championship game at FAU.

I agree.  I will say that sometimes Frisco ISD has football games at that stadium Friday, with FC Dallas playing within a couple days. The grounds crew should be able to patch it up ok.

Team just needs to make sure they wear the right boots for the pitch condition.

Most of the slipperiness early on looked to be from a heavy dew, which won't affect our afternoon game. 

We have a grass practice field I think next to the IPF.  I think it's named after one of our former coaches.
