I don’t have twitter so can’t see what is being said, but the first video sure looked like no leg room

I thought the same thing, but the first shot has a temporary barrier for construction that made it look that way.

Now they just need a football team

Exactly. They're certainly more of an academic school (as all should be) and not a B1G powerhouse. They must be planning on some changes with the new stadium and NIL donations.

Nerds are loving this NIL era.

Their highest average football game attendance was in 2014, a whopping 38,000 and some change. They dropped from 47,000 seats in the old one to only 35,000 in this one but spent $875 MILLION on it? I guess they want 30,000ish people to be very comfortable

If we're going to be playing a BIG10 team for one of our 3 OOC, we need to make this series happen. Would be a great road trip.

Speaking of sightlines, check out the seats in the bottom right of this pic. You're looking straight at a wall.

Especially the wealthy ones, like Northwestern.

Looks like they've modified that stadium 5 or 6 times over the years.

Never should have fired Pat Fitzgerald. He’s now the coach at Michigan State. Disgruntled qb who transferred made up some hazing stories, student newspaper ran with it and reactionaries fired Fitz, he won in court, got a huge settlement. NU is run by feckless turds.
