Explain the rationale behind your guarantee that the stadium will be too big?

And no, citing the Fran and Sherman debacles isn't a sufficient analysis.

When we haven't had a decent season in more than half a decade it's pretty good we still avg above 90K to a game.

Yea so the West is about to get even tougher. aTm with a 100,000 seat stadium in Texas is going to recruit at an elite level every year. aTm is going full speed into the new conference. Meanwhile, Mizzou continues to bring nothing but viewers in two mid sized pro cities.

10,000 empty seats is nothing to brag about


~7,000 over capacity

to help put that in perspective...

Bryant-Denny Stadium = 101,820 capacity

largest crowd to date:
102,437 , Nov. 5, 2011 vs LSU

Dude made a fairly subtle Segway from A&M to UT hating -- both jabs implicated too much seating.

You're being too hard on Mizzou. Their current expansion plans will bring them to 83K+, good enough for 5th largest stadium capacity in the SEC East.

And they have room to grow, unlike most of the stadiums ahead of them on the list.

Not sure what you're talking about.

Their official capacity is 108,000.

That was about Tennessee

And for clarification, I asked you to explain your assured opinion that we don't need the capacity. I believe you made the comment on page 1.
