The ONLY thing great about our stadium are the views... It's old, cheaply built and very outdated

Our stadium being dissed

Yeah, he's right.. t's kind of an ugly stadium that hearkens to the Geneva Steel

It needs a façade to cover the stark steel column/beam underbelly.

A facade on one or both of the main stands would help so much. Texas Tech’s stadium is smaller than LES but looks nicer

Most college football stadiums aren't all that nice. I'll take LES over most.

Agreed. It’s one of the best in the West, & I’d think top 20 in the country.

A misnomer many have about “filling in the corners”

And yet the first 5-10 rows on the east side are not used every game
BYU Grounds

They save those for recruits and their families. It's tricky to ensure those seats get used each game.

Yup. It also includes seats specifically for athletes of other sports.

Have people just not been to LES in 5 years? The corners ARE filled in now. What

Corner seats are fine. More lower level seating is always in demand.

I can’t think of a worse seat for watching football than a lower level corner.

Corner seats would be the worst seats in the stadium.

Unless they've made major renovations, same with the "big house" at Michigan.

The solution is to fill in the gaps and keep capacity roughly where it's at

It's extremely outdated. It might be cheaper to build new rather than update.
