Oh we have plenty. When I was a student I would get fricking irrate at the jackoffs who couldnt name one starting o lineman yet would criticize everything our team did. Meanwhile, his date who wields an IQ of 48 is on her blackberry the entire game and bitching about her vodka being smirnoff and not goose. Shoot me in the face.

Top football facilities in the SEC
quote:
Yep, those beautiful aesthetically gorgeous renovations at Bryant Denny really make it feared and ear-splitting. We've lost to Alashama in BD exactly ONCE since last century. Somehow the renovations make it louder, I don't understand. But it is just DEAFENING.
Why, Tiger Stadium is a solitary confinement chamber in a Monastery library compared to Bryant-Denny.
You may love it but the fact is that Tiger Stadium is an asbestos filled dump compared Bryant-Denny. It's not symmetrical in design, everything is rusty, the paint peels off everywhere, there are broken windows all over... It's loud, there's no arguing that LSU fan create quite the atmosphere there, but it's a dump.
Bryant Denny Stadium is one of the finest football stadiums in the country and possibly tops in college football. Being from Louisiana I will confess that some of our fans could learn a thing or two from LSU fans when it comes to creating atmosphere, but there really is no comparing the buildings.
I've been hearing about these renovations for years too. I've spoken to the guy who owns the construction company. The logistics to making Tiger Stadium a 100,000 seater are a lot more complicated than just signing the check.
UPT -
Classy post. Agree with a lot of it.
BD can't help but get louder with more people, esp. for the big games.
The Tiger Stadium SEZ Upper starts construction this summer and will be finished for the 2014 season.
The outside mall and renovations have been going on since last season, including the "broken windows" and "peeling paint" you mentioned.
It is by no means "a dump."
BTW, Tiger Stadium is just as old as Bryant Denny. Your "dump" just has a whole new outside thanks to the wrap-around upper decks.

New facilty upgrades to be voted on (and passed) before the end of the month.Possibly in the $200-$300 million range.

I found myself at the Arkansas/Ole Miss game last year and I'm pretty sure I saw some of those girls you speak of.

Florida: The Gators’ football facilities were spruced up considerably a few years ago under Urban Meyer, and everything is right there at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium (The Swamp). The entrance to the football offices, complete with trophies and memorabilia, is gorgeous. There is no indoor practice facility, and the practice fields aren’t very close to the stadium.
IPF is probably not going to happen anytime soon. The ranking is fine, but the practice fields are right across the street from the stadium, don't quite understand this criticism.

Dont get me wrong though, as with anything, those are the extremes (and unfortunately the typical stereotypes) of OM fans. There are plenty of fans who know their shite and were fun to be around in the student section. Sharing liquor, cigs, *cough one-hitters *cough.....

You should change the subject to "Football Facilities". I almost had to shank a bitch from being so mad. That being said this list sucks.
Looks accurate to me.
