Good stuff about attendance...

Alabama and Mississippi State were the only teams to be at 100 percent
capacity or higher during all of their home games. Alabama did it in
seven games, while Mississippi State did it in six.

what's the buzz on expansion @DWS?

I heard some BS awhile back about "a plan". Sounds like we're leaving$ on the table.

I think they have said that is the plan ...only one facility having construction at a time.

for the 100th anniversary of Scott Field and we also open with USM.

since they will be using two different fund sources. Practice Facility = Private Donations. Stadium = Bonds.

i guess i missed that.

at the State OM game.
They were going to very soonbegin working on the foundation, and footings. This means that they will remove the endzone bleachers, do their work,
and then replace them before next season. After next season they will go at it.

Thought the source was in the know. We'll see.

I was just curious what we would do with the concrete walls that would exist between where the new expansion adjoins the existing East and West grandstands. In this picture it looks like they would remain but it seems if they did they would block the view of the people sitting in the new areas behind it. I guess if the seats are significantly raised in the new area you could see over it and maybe that is what is planned. Just wondering. You can see what I'm talking about in the 3rd picture.

Don't know, probably elevated.
I'm sure they have it worked out.
Looking at the drawing, looks like the walls willnolonger be necessary.
