State's isn't underrated. It is a very nice expansion. It just came in a year TAMU and LSU did very significant expansions. All very good additions for each program.

Why have fans in your stadium when you can have video boards.
LSU's lights are tight.
I thought it was photoshopped the when i first saw a picture of the entire stadium in purple

Is this a troll thread about stadium expansions? Wow.
I'd go with:
1. A&M
2. LSU
3. MSU
4. Mizzou
I also really like what Kentucky is doing with their stadium and football facilities. I'm assuming Ole Miss and Arkansas will be next.

DWS expansion is really impressive on the inside as well. But my favorite part of all of it is the Scoreboard club terrace on each side, which gives people the option to walk around or stand on either side and watch the game. It's nice when you build from scratch.

Yeah you guys did a great job. DWS looks like a much more impressive and SEC-level stadium. It would look fantastic if the other endzone was enclosed in the future.

I believe this is the future of college football stadiums--remodeling. Less about number of seats and more about amenities and experience.

All are VERY good and there is no way to say impartially which is the best.
I will say this, and I mean this in the highest complimentary way possible, I'm most surprised with States. They did a damned good job and they didn't have to throw a small country's GDP to do so. They don't have a "fradittionally"powerful base yet that stadium is ver very nice and pure class.
Well done, State.
A&M and LSU did what I expected they could do. State surpassed any of my expectations.

The latest news regarding updates to our football facilities includes this $45 million football practice facility. The practice facility and training facility will be attached to the backside of the Nutter Indoor Training Facility with adjacent practice fields. It is expected to cover nearly 100,000 square feet of space.

Erectir set!?
Wait until A&M''s is finished with the brick etc.
The West side with the seating, suites, and lounges is going ti be really nice also.

I agree. LSU and A&M met my expectations. Mississippi State surpassed my expectations
I think overall, Texas A&M looks the best. However, I also believe their stadium also looks very generic & mainstream. I wouldn't trade this iconic view for anything.

LSU fans better prepare for the future. Capping the NEZ won't be happening. We are oversupplied for the demand. The next major seating adjustments will be to reduce seating.
Yes, you heard right. We will fix concessions and bathrooms next, but if we can't do the dorm suites inside the Stadium itself soon after, we will more than likely take all the 20 inch bench seats and subdivide them to give each one 24 inches. For you non math majors, this will reduce capacity in Death Valley.
Which I'm fine with. There's simply not enough demand beyond where we are from a capacity standpoint. So all those thinking the NEZ is next, better hope BR continues to explode in growth throughout the 5-Parish-Metro-Baton Rouge area. Without a huge explosion in demand, or a voracious appetite for additional suites (neither are probable), it ain't happenin.

I've never heard anyone ever describe Kyle as generic. No one else has a tackle box like us.

Now as far as rankings, A&M is completely redoing a stadium. state and LSU are doing one end zone or less. That said I think they compare very nicely. I think things about each but I prefer the overall look at States addition. I just feel like the nailed it with the look.

Obviously since they just set a new record for season ticket sells and the new club and suites were sold out before construction started. I agree that they won't be doing any sort of expansion on the NEZ anytime soon, but they also won't be reducing seating.

aleva stated a while back that reduced capacity was in the works if i'm not mistaken...
