shite, they might as well should have torn down that part of Bright and connected it to Kyle for the players to start their walk in if that itty bitty amount of space was going to be left.

That's where the east side first deck meets the first deck of the zone.

Not really sure I see the problem with that. Looks fine to me.

I guess it's not really a problem, it's just not what I'm used to or expected. I really thought everything would line up and flow. It's hard to see little things like this in concept drawings and models. I'm sure it will look fine when it's finished and will be an after thought in a couple years.

It's still in early early alpha. It'll be polished and badass by the time 2015 rolls around. The school isn't spending $500 million for nothing.

Potential safety hazard if a drunk idiot falls between the two structures.

So will those sections really not line up in the end? Looks really tacky. When it's full with people you might not notice, but empty it looks bad.

looks good to me Are they extending the main scoreboard more? It looks like they just added more extension to both sides of the main scoreboard.

They are taking out the concrete supports under that old corner section and preparing to add additional rows to make them line up. The grade of the sections wont match, but you wont notice when its full and it isnt nearly as blatant as the sideline sections at Tiger Stadium.

The only thing that looks bad to me is the difference between the second deck and the second deck corner piece. They could have just made the concrete base thicker to match them up. Hopefully the ribbon board will hide it.

looks to me that that is going to create a small section of uber shitty seats w/terrible sight lines.

wat? there were no seats there before

the ones on the left near the boxes look like they are going to have arse for angles. Maybe the field being moved a bit will help but I have my doubts.
