That's an old pic of Dowdy Ficklen Stadium

Here is a much more recent pic that includes the new endzone seating and scoreboard. It seats 50k.

First college game I attended as a kid was at Rice Stadium. I can almost see the exact area on the press box side my 2 school friends, their dad and myself sat. Can also conjure up even now that college football stadium Game Day smell that is so unique at a college football game. Only thing missing from that aroma of decades past are cigar and pipe smoke.

For the Mean Green Stadium the honest to goodness first thing I am going to observe for the first time in our modern history is a unified "impressive" major college football game crowd noise coming from both sides of the stadium, especially when our North Texas cheerleaders let loose on that yell of.................

"NORTH"....

"TEXAS"...

from both sides of the stadium.

We will all notice a huge difference in the decibal levels from now on at our Mean Green Stadium.

I didn't know that; pretty dang impressive. Alabama would be second, MGN. To the Crimson Tide's credit, they have been in their current stadium since 1929 and never had the luxury of playing AA teams/playoffs.

HerdZone, do you happen to know Marshall's home record since 1997 when ya'll moved up to D1/FBS?

Also, any idea why there is a discrepancy between the record you quote (stated on the Wiki) when compared to the record quoted on Marshall's official athletics site?

(welcome to the board)

Pic from the endzone

Only drawing from pictures I've seen on the web, but I've always thought that East Carolina has one of the nicest, if not the nicest, non-AQ stadium in the country. And it's way nicer than many of the AQ stadiums. And......it's always full of fans! IMHO, the Big East should just pull the trigger and invite East Carolina as a new, full member. Big East candidates that we hear about, Houston, Memphis, Central Florida, don't hold a candle to EC.
