Probably Alabama Baseball.



For a single facility, I would say this or A&M football stadium. Both were dumps.

I've been to most SEC Baseball stadiums. The transformation at Sewell Thomas is very impressive. Just wish the outfield part of the stadium was a little more like Dudy Noble or Swayze Field.

And although the Hump is pretty dated, the Mize Pavilion is pretty nice.

Either that or they drew Alabama backwards in the rendering.

Tell me what UGA has done to improve their facilities in the past 15 years and then we can discuss? UGA overall facilities wise is a Dean Dome away from being very similar to what UNC has.


? Sanford Stadium in its current state nicer than Vaught Hemingway will ever be.

You're welcome!The ONLY reason Ole Miss has been able to
afford these "improvements" is through accomplishments and generosity of schools that have actually accomplished something AFTER 1963.

You actually think the SEC network and other TV contracts had ANYTHING to do with Ole Miss any type of
market share or viewership the confrence gets from the great state of Mississippi??

Between the two MS schools, 3 appearances in the new major bowls and a couple of CWS appearances the past few years. Nothing comparable to UGA's recent accomplishments, obviously.

You actually think for 1 second that the TV money following into the SEC would come close to what it is today w/out UGA and the metro ATL TV market?

Once again,w/out the prestige of the big 6 and the big city markets in the Southeast both the Mississippi schools would be hard pressed to keep up with rest of the confernce with any type of facility improvements.
You guys are the defacto welfare queens of the SEC.

When your little school facilities are in the toilet, you have only one direction to go.

You mentioned accomplishments. Thanks to all the good folks of Atlanta for tuning in to watch our recent accomplishments. They haven't had much to get excited about in Athens lately, and I'm glad we could keep them entertained.
