Northwestern's temporary stadium

[Sycamorefan96]

Hard to believe this will host Big Ten games!!! Lake Michigan will sure make it pretty cold in late October and into November. Will they be able to sell it out?

That is hard to believe. Pat Ryan and family only?

Google search says it will seat around 15,000. Looks like they are going to play Ohio State and Illinois at Wrigley Field (both November games), but their other 5 home games will be at the "temporary field", including Wisconsin which is a bit surprising. I think it would have been hilarious if Ohio State had to go play in the "temporary stadium".

State of the art stadium coming. Here is a better pic of the final stadium product.

Still a hell of a lot better than what we call a “stadium”

I'd still rather sit in the 48th row of our stadium at the 50 than the 15th row of theirs at the 50.

im sure any high school player would rather play at our “stadium” than theirs as well. And have their parents sit in the 48th row of our stadium and pray that it doesn’t collapse during the game.

If Memorial Stadium scares you, you better not go down to Assembly Hall to catch a basketball game. You'll have to pray that a beam doesn't fall from the sky there.

What makes you think it is going to collapse?
