UofH’s Stadium is getting a renovation at the end of the 2023 season.

LaVell Edwards Stadium has had a TON of renovations in the last several years. Its already gonna be the largest stadium in the new Big 12. It doesn't need to add anything to it.

If I were in charge and money were no object I would look to redo the west bleachers to add better seating for the old timers (like me) and luxury boxes for the rich old timers (not like me). That would give it a lopsided appearance by adding height to the one side only (kind of like U of A's stadium) which I'm not crazy about. However, that seems like the most logical place to really modernize and expand while not taking away the views. Beyond that you are stuck with possibly filling in the corners if the demand requires it, but I would be worried about the sight lines for such seats (to the field not mountains) as it was never really designed for that.

Nippert Stadium is a GEM. B12 fans will be impressed.

As a UC student I love this stadium, but it needs another expansion, because we have more students than seating capacity of Nippert. It needs to be expanded to around 50-55k

I’m a graduate of both Utah and Houston. With Utah, I don’t see a massive capacity upgrade coming soon, if ever-even though they’ve sold out every game for over a decade. It’s loud as-is and I think they’d prefer to keep it sold out every week and just add higher priced luxury seating and jack up overall ticket prices instead of adding more cheap seats. Houston has struggled to get the stadium even half full. Even among alumni the connection to the school just isn’t there. Both are commuter schools to a greater or lesser degree and aren’t going to fill a 80k+ stadium. I do think if BYU finds stability in the Big 12 and does consistently well they could get enough fans wanting tickets to justify adding even more seats. But Provo is a college town in a way Salt Lake City and Houston both definitely aren’t.

Agreed. People drop their season tickets in a down year but not at Utah. You wouldn't want to end up at the bottom of the waiting list. Folsom is gorgeous

Sun devil stadium used to seat around 75k before the renovation. That big screen is sweet, opposite of the student section so they can see everything going down in the far side of the field. Switched to the shady sideline under Herm (his best decision) and it’s a blast! Home side gets shade first.

When the team was good, Folsom Field was an amazing place to see a game. Hopefully it becomes so again!

The reason TDECU has red panels on the outside is to make the stadium look like a cage. Like the opponent is in a cage with a cougar.

Do basketball arenas next! Can’t wait to host all our new BXII foes @ McKale 💪🐻⬇️

Love how Nippert got like 10 seconds and didn’t even get its own tab. Just one of the most historic stadiums and a fan favorite. Brian Kelly called it the Wrigley Field of college football. Oh well.

Hopefully, Colorado does some major “matching” renovations to the visitor side of the stadium, replacing the old “Flatiron” with some suites that match the home side and matching the visitor end zone to the home end zone corner. They ruined ASU stadium when the tore down the end zone deck. Cincinnati is going to have to give up that Music building view, for gawd’s sake and complete that deck.

A lazy river with a large percentage of drunk fans seems a little dangerous lol

So happy to see Kansas actually put money into there football program after all this time. We haven't been shit for years when it comes to football so it's awesome to finally see that we can be something more than just a basketball school.

Utah’s stadium was built in 1927 and known as Ute Stadium up until 1972, when Robert Rice funded a stadium remodel known there after as Rice Stadium. In 1995, after Utah was chosen as the site for the 2002 Olympic Winter Games opening ceremony a remodeling was started in 1997 after Spencer Eccles donated $10M to bring the stadium up to Olympic standards. It was completed in 1998. In 2019, the stadium again went under renovation to the South end (known as the Ken Garff Red Zone) added up to date locker rooms, 6k more seats, high end suites, offices and donor restaurant and upgraded scoreboard. With all the changes it now seats 51,444 with the record coming against USC of 53,609.

Funny story about the Eccles donation. My wife worked for First Security Bank (Eccles owned it at that time), and they were told that they were behind in their numbers for the year so there would be no bonuses. Suddenly the next day, Spencer has the funds to make that 10 mil. donation. Needless to say, it was a PR disaster for him...😅😅😅

I would look up the most recent renderings for UCF. Some of those you included have been scrapped for now

Nothing against any of the 8 new members and their stadiums 🏟️, but outside of UC’s I really think no of them hold a candle to KSTATE’s limestone stadium. PLEASE DO A REVIEW ON THE EXISTING B12 stadiums in a future video. Thanks. EMAW!

Pretty exciting stuff considering a lot of these colleges were in the southwest conference years ago. Oregon and Washington on the other hand I feel so bad for their athletes such an illogical move. I think a few of these schools will find a new found draw in recruiting out of Texas because of this move. I'd keep an eye on Arizona State.

Appreciate the video but you should try to go to some of these stadiums, it’s difficult to judge based on photos and TV

wait, how many teams are gonna be in the Big "12" next year?

BYU's stadium is fine. It seats 63,470, and rarely sells out. That is #1 in the BIG 12, less Texas who will be leaving in a year. 3:23 there IS luxury seating on the West side near the top. With that said, the Oklahoma game in November sold out last week. FYI...you want to see a stadium that sucks? Just look at Utah's. A stadium that sits against a mountain so you can only approach it from 2 sides, there is almost constant construction going to and from the stadium in Salt Lake City, the parking is limited, visiting teams have very limited seating, a lot of fans have to take not one but TWO trains to get to the stadium to see a game, and it only seats 51,444 putting it in the lower 1/3 of the conference for size.

Arizona needs to do some massive upgrades. Tucson should be a real draw if they start playing good football

Folsom field is the worst congested stadium that I have ever been to. Not only is it congested but the students are the most impolite and “privileged” group. The west side is so out dated and the area “building” that you walk through to access those seats is falling apart. I’m not a CU fan nor was I a fan of their opponent when I was there. It is obvious that you haven’t been there during a game. CU has a lot to do to bring this stadium back into the 2000’s and out of the early 1900’s.

You need to do a little more research, Rice Eccles stadium has been around since before the first World War.

BYU is notoriously cheap, there is no way the school admins etc... are going to spurge for a stadium upgrade, as a matter of fact even the coaches are among the lowest paid in the nation.
