Yeah, uh, not even close.

Being as extremely OCD as I am, I wish the end zone sections were mirror images of each other and that it was concrete instead of erector set.

That's the only thing that really bothers me, I just like cohesiveness and symmetry.

Other than that it is impressive.

Why do the sideline stands look like the end zone stands and vice versa?

I'm really confused by all of the LSU fan "erector set" comments? Tiger Stadium is a mish mash of a bunch of different odd angles and lines when you look at it empty. It looks great, just like new Kyle will, when it's full of fans though.

Meh...

Neyland and Bryant-Denny's brick work looks better.

The overall design of Neyland and Bryant-Denny is also much better.

On the SEC Giants list (LSU, UT, UA, A&M) A&M is probably last.

Atmosphere AND design.

Kyle Stadium was by far the biggest POS stadium I had ever seen. The new renovations tried to improve it as much as possible, but frankly there's only so much you could do to that pile of trash.

For all the money spent, A&M could and should have built an awesome stadium from scratch. I imagine half a billion dollars could get you something pretty nice in College Station.

That said, it's college football. Who cares if stadiums are ugly. Some of it's part of the charm IMO.
