OT: Football Field Design

With @HokiesFB tweeting out the grounds crew preparing the field, I figured we should delve off topic into a discussion of the field design; both for VT and comparing to others.

THE SEASON IS ALMOST HERE!!

Disclaimer: Nothing but props to the VTGroundsCrew. They do a tremendous job preparing the field to not only be safe, but also look great.

Let's examine Worsham Field:

Midfield Logo: We actually can't go wrong here. The VT is consistent and uses great brand recognition.

It even looks good in Lane Stadium North!

Endzones: Consistently strong with "Virginia Tech Hokies" in white, bordered by O&M.

Thoughts on ACC Championship where endzone has Maroon as a solid background?

What about this ole classic? For some reason I always liked this, maybe not for use today though.

Sidelines: The one thing that bugs me about Worsham Field is the thin sidelines. I feel like most fields utilize a thicker sideline, which makes the field pop.

Lane -

Neyland (UT) -

Memorial (Clemson) -

Tiger (LSU) -

Do you think Lane should use a thicker sideline? Do you think they should alter the endzone design in any way? Midfield Logo? How about some minor details that could improve the field? What's your favorite thing VT has done for field design (Frank Beamer Signature, Maroon effect, Orange effect, etc.) Which college stadium has the best field design?
