Nebraska Football’s South Stadium renovation is officially approved, and the Big Red Junkies break down what the Memorial Stadium overhaul means for Husker fans.
BJ, Jed, and Matt get into why BJ thinks Nebraska should’ve just built a brand new stadium instead of putting lipstick on a 120-year-old pig, and why the practice facility basically made that impossible. They talk through the Kiewit deal that locks in the price and timeline, Troy Dannen’s promise of only missing one season of seats, and the $200 million in infrastructure work that’s been needed for a decade. The crew gets into the reseeding controversy and pricing out families, the new 20,000 chair back seats, the 360-degree concourse, and the band/student section setup that could turn Memorial Stadium into the kind of home-field nightmare Minnesota and Oregon have with way fewer seats. Plus, RIP to the troughs — Troy Dannen going on record as “team trough” might be the strangest AD quote of the year. They also hit the 5,000 seat reduction, the end of the season ticket waiting list for the first time in 50 years, and whether dropping below 80,000 actually matters when atmosphere beats capacity every time. Nostalgia versus moving forward, what Trev Alberts had wrong, and what the average fan actually gets out of this thing.
