DKR is more of an NFL feel than a CFB feel mixed in with a lot of cartoonish graphics and piped in noise. It's more of a production. Interesting to see but certainly not a traditional SEC type venue. Part of that is Austin is a large city with lots of money and no NFL team so companies buy up a lot of the seats. Carries over to the tailgating as well, lots of corporate sponsored tailgates. The stadium food is very good though, best I've had and great variety.

This pretty much sums it up. Lots of bluehairs in the crowd too that buy up a lot of the best seats and arent very loud or rowdy. We are hoping some of that changes with joining the SEC. The truth is a lot of our games just werent that interesting.

It may shift a bit but in the end it's about the money and those corporate dollars are going to beat the traditional fan just wanting to be a die hard. The only thing that would shift that would be an NFL team moving to Austin and that simply isn't going to happen. There are worse things, the Texas game atmosphere is nice for sure but it will never be elite.

I say this as an Aggie who lives in Austin and probably goes to a Texas game every other year or so with a tsip buddy who I also take to Aggie games. BTW, last year he took me to Kansas thinking it was a sure win and it was absolutely epic.
