    I swung by the campus during a work trip this spring. stadium aside, it's a pretty cool setting they have there at berkeley, I can get why the people who dont care about winning want to go there.

    whats baffling is that they spent $321M to make that stadium look like an almost unnoticeably less shitty version of itself.

    whats also cool is their practice field is on top of a parking garage, so they really get an efficient practice in preparing for the Autzen pre-game and game experience at the same time.

    The bulk of that $321M went to retrofitting for earthquake. The hayward fault runs right through the middle of that stadium. Literally.

    I agree, it's basically the same stadium. Great setting for a stadium, but the facility itself is cookie-cutter basic.
    Pretty sure that was the finest football facility on the West Coast (when it was built in 1923)

    That is not at all Nebraska classy of you to point that out.
