New stadium, field is closer to the water table, poor draining. 2011 season final three games had lots of rain, with  each game having worse draining. The Oregon game was the pinnacle of sloppy field. Duck players changed the length of their spikes and did well, Cardinal players slipped all over the field.

Guess this post should hit the hodgepodge of critical posts. Can't believe you're blaming Shaw for poor halftime cleat adjustments during a game eight years ago. It did cost the Cardinal a shot at the national championship, though.

There were a fair number of fans who were calling for a sloppy field because they thought it would slow the Ducks down.
Then we got one and when it seemed to bother us more than it did the Ducks people blamed the loss on the sloppy field.
It probably wasn't the same people, but I still thought it was ironic.
Be very careful about what you wish for. You just might get it.
