Sacramento State

Didn't Reser hold about 47K after it was first revamped?
Yes, we were up around 45K or so before they tore down the west grandstand a couple years ago and rebuilt it. I was disappointed about the reduced seating capacity. But apparently there's a trend across the entire country for reduced attendance to college football games.

Really cool video: Blowing up (or down) Reser Stadium:

Kaboom!!!

Edit: Sorry about the Sacramento Bee link not working. It isn't working for me anymore, either. They better get their act together if they want Sac State included in the PAC-12.

Totally agree Sacramento State needs to build this stadium to be easily expandable, and that was my first thoughts when I saw the renderings. I was thinking 40K myself for them.

Our new Reser Stadium in Corvallis seats about 35K, and I'm disappointed it isn't larger. But at least we have places where more seats can be added if we ever need to in the future.

Yeah I saw that. Are those solar panels off to the side of the far endzone? And as I've said before they need to make it hold 30K or be easily expandable to 30K.

Ole' Miss 2025

Saw yesterday an Ole Miss board is also speculating.
Well Anne McC must lurk on this site, because as we know the Mighty Loyal One has been crowing Ole Miss from the rooftops ever since Ole Miss's schedule opened up. Bump the North Texas game to Sept 20 when we both have openings, and slide Ole Miss right in on the 13th.

Everyone is welcome for the unmatched insight and foresight of the Wonderful Loyal. :)

And as I've also stated, I predict that the MW will snatch them up. What I've read says that they want in the Pac or "another" FBS conference. The Sacramento Kings' announcement has a similar reference. #20 market in the country. Hmmm......
