Do you think LSU will add on to the other end zone? Or is this the last expansion for Death Valley?

Doubt they do the other side... No room over there.

175,000++ capacity needs to happen

if anything they'll change the facade of the west upper to match the south endzone to give the whole stadium roman coliseum look

next upgrades will be to redo the bathrooms and concession areas for the remainder of the stadium. Next will be to upgrade seating and amenities in the endzone areas possibly reducing some of the total seating capacity.

They need to see if they can get enough butts in the seats consistently over the next few years to fill up what they have.
Maybe figure a way to put luxury boxes over the north endzone and call it a day.

never changing the north. There isn't enough room to expand. It would encroach on the Tiger Habitat and PMAC

Not in our lifetimes. Upgrades on the outer facades in terms of uniformity will be made next. Interior upgrades after that. After that IDK.

No more additions...ever. 100K is too big, imo. But LSU might do some major rennovations.

Have you noticed the growing number of empty seats over the last couple years? Since some fans are having to sell their season tickets below face value, thats not going to happen anytime soon.

I'd rather huge renovations to the look of tiger stadium, than additions to seating.

Stadium Expansion

There have been rumors that Alleva eventually wants to put box suites only above the NEZ, (no rows of seats or upper deck), and construct the supports for the suites so as not to cover up the roman arches style of the NEZ or obstruct any of the NEZ plaza renovations and improvements.
The Box Suites themsleves would actually be in the stands and the back walls of the suites would rise above the stadium, they wouldn't really need that much support structure to the ground.
The NEZ box suites would add about 2000-4500 more to the current capacity of 102,321.
The reason this might eventually happen is that there is and will still be a demand for box suites from individuals/groups/companies/
sponsors, and the fact that box suites are big money for the Univ. and would pay for itself.

Alleva said they are gonna try to make it more modern, but i don't expect any new seats

This. And tear down all the trees that would eliminate the march down the hill plus the iconic look of that side of the stadium. Not to mention the weight room that would have to be torn out to put the supports up.
They will tear down an upperdeck and expand before covering the NEZ

I have heard this but idk how on earth they would put them up without covering up the roman arches and exterior
