You don't think the lower bowl is close enough to the field? Confusing statement


It's not far, but it doesn't appear to be close either. I like the steepness of the lower bowl but it would be more intimidating closer. I've never been to tiger stadium so looking at these construction photos is the most attention I've paid to the details like that.

You underestimate how many texans want to watch SEC football


Well 3 games are vs Lamar, Rice, and ULM. While I think they are a quality game most A&M fans seem to have Mizzou fatigue.

That leaves Ole Miss and LSU as the top home games.

I think it'll be tough to average anywhere near 106k for the season.

I'd say the lower bowl is about as close to the field as you can get when you factor in all of the space needed for teams, equipment, personnel, television broadcast equipment, etc.

I have no idea what you are talking about. Do you want it to be on the endzone so players run into the gate like in arena football?


Seriously how much closer do you expect the seating to get?

The end zone is close. Congrats. Go look at Okie State. That is crazy close. The LSU sudelines didn't appear that close in the pics posted. A&M's were not close either and be moving in quite a bit.

Last time I ever try to give LSU a compliment and a minor comment to go with it.

Next time I'm sticking to the handbook and posting frick ULSU.

Well i mean you just werent accurate with your comment. I'm looking at OSU now and i have no idea how they fit a football team, equipment carts, and camera carts that roam the sideline in the space they have allotted. i bet thats awesome for fans but looks like a complete clusterfrick.

At least he's not as militant and juvenile as some other Aggie posters.

Y'all probably don't care, but here is a look at the facelift that our tennis and softball will be getting in the off-season.

Actually thanks for posting that. We just broke ground on tennis and was wondering how it would compare to others in the conference.
