    Still looks like the Outhouse to me.

    Are Meechigan fans going to nickname it "The house that Rich built"?
  • Tiernan
    It still resembles a huge bed pan. A bed pan which OSU will continue to piss on the "M" on a bi-annual basis. The only team scUM may register some wins against occasionally are the Potato Eaters.

    it's nice, but i still hate it with all my being.

    That stadium is incredible. The Big Ten has so many terrific stadiums.
  • Classyposter58
    That stadium actually looks pretty good

    Looks badass. I hope that one day for the Big 10's sake a decent team will be able to represent it.

    I love how people in the back rows are practically in the parking lot.

    The Big House now seats 109,501, largest football stadium in the country.

    this...don't they have three of the top five largest stadiums in terms of capacity?

    I've never really been a fan of the stadium, something about one-tiered bowls just doesn't interest me. Same goes for the Rose Bowl. I understand and respect the tradition and everything, I just don't see the glamor.

    New stadium looks great. Did they bother to add some fucking bathrooms so people don;t miss half of the 3rd quarter?
  • CinciX12
    That looks awesome. Always been partial to it because of the similar laytout to ND. Love the one level bowl set-ups.

    109,901

    which means it will break 115,000 some day.

    only reason they can fit so many people is because each ticket reserves your ass 6 inches of space...the seats there are so damn small/close together

    Ive been told-those seats are only 16" wide-at Ohio Stadium the seats are 21" wide, so Um would only hold about 84,000 if they increased seat size to the same as OSU.

    Maybe true. But regardless they actually put that many people in the stadium. That's all that really matters.
  • darbypitcher22
    The reason you get so many numbers over actual capacity is that they count everybody in the stadium... coaches, players, officials, gameday personnel, etc.

    I've been to 2 games and a Spring Game since they started this stuff. There are more bathrooms, BUT they got rid of the piss troughs that were in the men's room, so it's just as long if no longer for guys now. I used to love walking in and pissing on the wall and walking out. Now there are stalls and urinals... slows things down to the speed of a woman now.
