Expansion is stupid for anyone with a plus +80k stadium right now, unless they are adding MUCH better ammenities including alcohol, better parking, more club seats, etc. TV is changing everything, and there aren't going to be sold out stadiums of 100k+ much in the future unless something changes.
I think that is exactly what they're doing. I wish we would have done more of the on the south side and not just thrown up and giant end zone as fast as possible. I'm not talking west side nice. If all 4 sides were what the west side is going to be it would be hands down the nicest stadium in the world. I'm talking some chair backs, a decent club, and maybe a few more portals to the concourse.

Yeah overall our expansion is going to be disapointing in the long run I think.
I was at the LSU game this year, and the 3rd deck of the south EZ was maybe 10% full. The rush to add bleacher seats is going to bite us in the arse. I was one of the few on TA back before we decided on expansion that thought we were nuts going above 100k, and I still think so.
If we had added parking, redesigned the tailgating scene to be more centralized, or greatly improved the experience, that'd be one thing. But we added bleachers, new concessions, and no parking.
