Something about that second picture in your post seems wrong, though. The south end zone appears to be all one level without two separate decks, and the outside of the south end looks wrong. It looks like the north end but that's not how the real thing looks. Is that second photo real? It looks like an artist's rendering or a photoshop.
Here's a link to the Advocate article and the picture. No photoshop, real picture of Bert Jones TD beating Ole Miss. The Advocate
I believe he was talking about the second picture in the original post. It's definitely not correct. Must be an artist's rendering. South endzone is not correct.

Aerial view of Tiger Stadium post-1953 renovation, via Louisiana Desitinations
Tiger Stadium was a concrete building and its exterior neo-classical. The expression of the structural bays provided a pleasant rhythm on the façade which wrapped the single-height bowl. The white concrete color palette and the arched structural bay was reminiscent of the original Yankee Stadium, with the symmetry of the single bowl bringing a further harmony to Tiger Stadium. Unfortunately, the continuity of this original exterior was broken in 1978 when an 11,900-seat second deck was built atop the west side of the stadium.
