The best place for someone to answer the screen sizes in tiger stadium would be the companies who'll be covering it with ads.

Mizzou just winning and the lower/mid tier schools (A&M) are catching up with the big boys in THE conference.

So how are they going to get the cranes out of Kyle field?

State's expansion is a home run for what it is. Looks great!

The prodding I suspect came from Slive's office to get all the schools on board with dressing up for the new SECN looks to be paying off, everything I see looks really good, at the end of the day we're gonna have the best looking stadiums in college football and only further the SEC dominance in recruiting.
Us new guys are loving this.

FWIW, the design process is kicking off for the $50 million+ renovation of the O'Dome set to begin at some point next season. Exterior changes could start as early as this fall, interior renovations will take place after basketball and force the team to play around the state for the OOC schedule.
Preliminary rendering of new central entrance, finalized renderings will come out by end of summer.

Be real. You know Mizzou's stadium before the reno was relatively small and didn't compare well to Tiger, BDS, BHGS, etc. Now I'd say it stacks up nicely to someone like Autzen or Memorial Stadium (Neb).

Small? It had a capacity of 71,004 with some games drawing as much as 78,000.
Now, did it look like shite? Yes. It was one of the worst looking stadiums in the SEC without a doubt. But I wouldn't say it was "small". Now both of those problems are being solved. It looks a lot better and will have a larger capacity than before.

9th or 10th in the SEC and not even sniffing the top 20 in the nation. Relative to the big boys, it is SMALL. Once complete you'll move into the top 20 and pass up teams like FSU, UCLA, MSU, Iowa, UW, etc. Stop being so whiny and take the damn compliment.

If Mizzou can win in Kylye Field on multiple occasions when traditionally Mizzou is not a very good road team, what does that say about the "bigger stadium" (i.e. Kyle Field)
Posted on 6/12/14 at 4:07 pm to Farmer1906
Theyll still be behind UCLA first on the right. Rose bowl sits 90k+

I must say that our progress with Davis Wade Stadium is nothing short of a miracle. For the second oldest stadium in the FBS being built in 1914, it sure doesn't look it's age. It's like a fine wine. Grows better with age.

It says that is completely unrelated to anything I said.

True but I was thinking butts in seats. UCLA doesn't come close to filling it.

Not really trying to argue with you..just saying that Mizzou has the 24th largest college football stadium America which out of ~120 schools would probably be considered relatively "large".

Relative to all CFB stadiums, sure. Relative to the "big boys", which I was thinking A&M and similar sized ones you aren't big, but smaller.
It looks good. I am impressed with it. It is factually in the bottom half of the SEC in size (and still will be) yet it will match up well vs some major football program's stadiums. That is all I was saying.

Well no shite, y'all's stadium is in a group of like 3 other schools.
