Didn't see a thread on this.. There was a media tour yesterday or Wednesday.

It may be the most boring looking stadium in CFB.

That almost looks like a legit SEC stadium.

About a $120M renovation. New skyboxes, recruiting room, new turf, lots of seat changes. A much needed facelift for sure. Capacity was dropped from about 67K to about 61K as well, with more "premium" seating.

Looks good. Needs more blue.

Also a ton of exterior work. It doesn't look bare anymore, with a ton of girders sticking out. I like the new limestone exterior.

Was just there a couple weeks ago. A lot of construction was going on but I was impressed.

Interior looks good and all but you guys need to be showing off the exterior.. The limestone left me most impressed.
Looking good though

The limestone looks amazing when you see it at the stadium but it doesn't photograph as well. It's a tannish color that's quarried locally.

It looks clean. I like it.

Here are a couple of pictures. Comparing the exterior now vs the exterior before.
They say that following the season, they'll continue to improve the stadium further, but overall, I'm pleased with the way it's coming along.

This turf bullshite is played out like AstroTurf was. Isn't Kentucky famous for grass?

Wow looks completely different. Did they add a roundabout to alumni rd.?

Better than the East side of Tiger Stadium.
