Don't ever call us TU. Yes, our new screen will be an 8 Million Dollar 7,370 square foot high-definition LED scoreboard, which will be the biggest high-definition screen in the world. It will be in place for the start of the 2006 football season.

In addition, we are exnding the north end of the stadium to increase capactiy to 90,000+, making it the biggest stadium in the state.

I only call you via your proper name.

Sure, everything is bigger in Texas. But when you come up to Lincoln on October 21st, you'll be wondering how you just got your ass kicked by some po-dunk farmer boys. And how in the hell can a stadium that only holds 85,000 can be so damn loud. Beware of the Sea of Red.

I thought this ranking was interesting (and also on topic):

Rivals.com has ranked the top 10 stadiums in home field advantage in Division I-A football. They are:

1. Lane Stadium (Virginia Tech)
2. Tiger Stadium (LSU)
3. Ohio Stadium (Ohio State)
4. Ben Hill Griffin Stadium (Florida)
5. Beaver Stadium (Penn State)
6. Autzen Stadium (Oregon)
7. Kyle Field (Texas A&M)
8. Camp Randall Stadium (Wisconsin)
9. Doak Campbell Stadium (Florida State)
10. Jordan-Hare Stadium (Auburn)

The company I work for was invited to bid on the control room and editing facilities for the stadium at Nebraska.

Unfortunately, we were too booked up to do the work in the time specified, so we had to pass.

Having directed college football games for many years, stadiums are a lot of fun for me, and I've been to a lot of them.

My favorites don't include any of the above, but I don't look at them from the standpoint of rivalry.

I actually think that is a pretty good list, and I have been to a majority of them. I would argue that LSU should be number 1.....although I have never been to VaTech. Kyle Field is one of the loudest I have been in....especially during Texas games.

And I'd just like to say that Florida State has WON at 6 of those stadiums, excluding our own Doak Campbell. We've never played at the remaining three, by the way - Oregon, Penn State, or Wisconsin.
Home advantage - we don't need no stinkin home advantage!
GO NOLES!!!
