That stadium needs it. The outside will be nice, in its current state it looks like an erector set

It is literally an oversized high school stadium with a big screen and loud sound system. I've never been less impressed by a major program's stadium.

We'll need to upgrade South stadium at some point anyway. It will just get more expensive as time goes on.

True, but when you're staring down the pipe at potentially sharing 20-25% of your sport's revenue with the players, you'd better damn well make sure you've actually figured out a way to pay for both before you take on yet another big capital spending project. I think Nebraska's approach is a prudent one, given the shifting environment right now.

Yes, I'd never recommend that to anyone for a road game. It sucked getting there, getting out of there, and the stadium was like a very large Caniglia Field.
