This is a tough question at
ISU since we basically already have the lower bowl done.
Current "Real Seat" capacity is like 46,500 or close to.
Best crowds we can get about 57,000 in the stadium.
My guess would be that the lower bowl would put our "real seat" capacity around 51,000.
My guess for the entrire endzone done would be around 61,000.
I'm no expert though.
Hey look at Indiana. They currently don't fill their stadium or close to it and they don't have any endzone seating currently. They are adding a huge endzone to their stadium so they have a vision.
And if Iowa loses too many more games...half their stadium will be empty so basically what I am trying to say is if you win the fans come out. We are putting 50-57K in our stadium while sucking.
I could imagine 61,000 tickets versus Nebraska, Iowa, A&M, Texas, OU wouldn't be a problem if we were actually good.
