LUBBOCK, Texas, Sept. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Texas Tech University kicked off the 2023 college football season with a strong showing against nationally ranked Oregon at Jones AT&T Stadium. With non-conference games complete, attention now shifts to the Big 12 home opener against the University of Houston Cougars. The Texas Tech Red Raiders are excited about their home-field advantage.

 

“We always believed that once you play on Hellas turf, you’ll experience a real difference.” Hellas CEO Reed J. Seaton.

“The team loves the new field,” says Texas Tech Head Football Coach Joey McGuire. “Their first time on the field they said it felt soft. Not only that, but we are looking fast on the field, and that’s important to our game.”

The field at Jones AT&T Stadium features the same turf system that 12 NFL teams practice or play on, consisting of a paved-in-place e-layer that absorbs shock on impact and monofilament fibers that spring back into place, holding their shape and preventing infill movement. All of these are contributing factors to the softness players and coaching staff feel on the field.

Coach McGuire is familiar with Hellas’s turf. In fact, he coached two high school state championships at AT&T Stadium, where the Dallas Cowboys play on the same Matrix Helix turf as the Red Raiders. The turf can also be found at Baylor University in McLane Stadium and Allison Indoor Practice Facility. Coach McGuire was an assistant coach for the Baylor Bears before joining Texas Tech. 

“We have always believed that once you play on our turf, you’ll experience a real difference,” adds Hellas CEO Reed J. Seaton. “We’re thrilled that Coach McGuire loves our product and anticipate many great years ahead for the Texas Tech Red Raiders under his leadership.”

The Red Raiders and Cougars kick off at 2:30pm Saturday at Jones AT&T Stadium.
