Grass for Super Bowl Developed at Oklahoma State

The playing surface of the Super Bowl this year was on national display Sunday night in Arizona with the hybrid turfgrass — termed Tahoma 31, which was developed at Oklahoma State — getting millions and millions of eyeballs as the Chiefs took down the Eagles to win the world championship.

The NFL has spent two years preparing the grass for tonight's field at the Super Bowl.

The grass was grown at a local sod farm in Phoenix.

It was installed two weeks ago, and the field has been rolled out each morning for daily sunshine.
