Gracious. I've been watching games on TV from Memorial / Colemam Coliseum since Alan House and Wendell Hudson were playing. Never seen the camera from behind the benches.

I've been wondering this as well. LSU, Auburn and Bama all have this setup now, right? Looks very strange.

Not sure. I think the benches. It is an odd look.

I just looked it up. They moved the camera from one side to the other, benches in same location they always have been.

They did this because they slightly moved the student section and wanted to feature it in camera more.

Due to the restructuring of the student section, network television cameras will move to the North side of Coleman Coliseum in order to shoot into the student section. As a result, the Coleman Coliseum floor will be repainted.

TL;DR: Coleman is an ancient dungeon.
