Last I checked, we found some grass in fossils but didn't expect much to have been eaten, or much to have been "on the ground" so-to-speak" given that the lca of existent grasses (to the order of 90%) can't be pushed back any further than 70mya (as told by the genome-and as compared to the amount of fossilized flora that -isn't- grass). We still have the explosion of grass after kt (and again after our efforts). The effect on the scenery has to be truly considered to be appreciated.
