The landmark that made Boise State a household name nationwide will get a refresher this spring.
Boise State has received permission to spend up to $600,000 to start replacing the iconic blue turf at Albertsons Stadium from Idaho’s Permanent Building Fund Advisory Council, a board charged with approving state public works projects.
Boise State Athletic Director Curt Apsey confirmed to the Idaho Statesman on Friday that it will replace the blue turf after spring practice and in time for the start of fall practices before the 2019 season.
“It’s needed,” Apsey said.
