From the looks of this picture, the upper deck seating are is going to be kinda narrow (comparatively). I thought it might get over 100,000 in seating, but this pic, along with the fact that most of the seating will be suites, makes me think that we will be just short of that number.

don't see why they can't push the concessions and restrooms back a little and add a few more rows of general seating...

Mark Ewing mentioned this on Inside LSU Football this past week. Seems like they're adding just under 7,000 seats, putting the capacity slightly over 99,000.

If you really want to know at this point what the Capacity will be to the Seat there are two people who know:
1. Whoever is charge of Tickets and the Seating Diagram that they put out showing the Expansion. He knows down to the Ticket how many Seats there will be.
2. The Construction Buyer who is buying all the new Seats knows exactly how many Seats he is buying.
3. The writeup says 100,000 or MORE. Saying MORE means there will probably be MORE than 100,000.
4. Les Miles is saying over 103,000 and he was given a thumbs up by the TAF!!
5. Next year at this time we all will know!!
