Will the stadium be ready to open the season on Sept 12th? Provided there is a season.

It will never be ready on time. Welcome to Baton Rouge construction.

I mean.. It depends on what they are doing to it.
Why does BDS need work done in the first place?

Ok, but will it be halted at some point in time. Supplies and schedules interfered with because of mandatory quaratines? Let's hope not. Because only about 35% of the stadium was to be available for the A DAY GAME!

How much person to person contact do you have on a construction site? A least the 6 foot rule.

No A-Day game should have sped it up by at least a couple of days I imagine.

Well they could use petrified Skoal drool instead of cement. So there's that.....

They had been working on weekends. Now A-Day is freed up for them to work.
No idea how the supply chain is affected.

Byrne said that at times there will be as many as 400 workers at multiple sites in BDS. Work has begun at all sites in BDS. East and West Skyboxes and new pressbox, student plaza, New North End zone tunnel, New lockerroom, new recruiting lounge, West concourse extensions, elevators. And the new videoboards are already installed.

So at the very least at all sites work has begun.
After this week there's 12 weeks until the first game, or 84 days.

I know for these construction companies working on it that it'll be a priority given the time constraints.

Thank you SECUniversity! That's the kind of information I was looking for.
