I am not sold on LSU's expansion. I am worried that it will thin out the lower bowl and for 90% of the games the stadium will look sparse. At our current capacity, we don't have butts in the seats for all 4 quarters except for 1 or 2 games a year.



LSU before expansion is way better than this Husky stadium. After expansion it blows it away. I'm willing to bet they tried to model it after Tiger Stadium.

Adding any amount is going to spread the fans out. I'm at all of the home games, and it's pretty sad to see the stadium at 75% capacity in the late 3rd quarter of the Miss State, Vandy, or Kentucky games. Let's not even discuss what it will look like against Furman or Sam Houston St.

Wow that is VERY nice. Love how they moved the seats closer to the field. Definitely a Top 10 stadium!

Very nice. I also like how they are trying to copy Arizona's motto of Bear Down with Bow Down.

U Dub is a great school that goes hard on game day, they deserve this stadium. F the Seahawks.

Looks great.

I had such a great time interacting with your fanbase for our two games that UDub will always be a team that I pull for. That and we have similar colors.

Wow! Pretty fricking impressive. However I don't ever recall UDUB winning a Crystal Ball. I know they have two national championships but not anything in the BCS era. So my question is why do they have one on display?

i actually wasnt all that impressed with their fan support. It wasnt awful or anything, just middle of the road. Most of the city didnt even know why people had LSU gear on though which i found weird. It's like they couldnt put two and two together.

Well 'Bow Down' comes from their fight song so it's not like they copied anything.
