Pretty sweet looking video if you ask me. xnodx xbowx

First off, looks like it should turn out to be a pretty nice stadium once it is accomplished.

I don't mean to be the naysayer of the group but, is this still on the same time table as before? Do you plan on having it done by 2018?

Last report it's an eight year project.

[catbob]

I'll still be "relatively" young when its all said and done. :)

Looks awesome, I can't wait!

[slostang]

Very impressive.

I hope MSU will start playing Cal Poly again in the near future so I will get a chance to see it in person.

When are they starting on the turf and what type did they decide on?

[danefan]

Looks sweet. Very well integrated with the current situation.

What will the total expansion bring capacity to?

[catbob]

Field Turf.

Capacity will be around 20,000 I believe.

[lizrdgizrd]

Very nice looking expansion! xnodx

As catbob said, we are using Field Turf. That will be in place by August 1st I believe.

[slostang]

Cal Poly has a four phased plans for expansion. The west side that was completed last season was phase one of four phases. Replacing the east side stands will be phase two which I have heard that they are shooting to start in the next three or four years. When the all four phases are completed the cap. is suppose to be 22,000. I would love to see a video like of the plan like the Bobcats put out. I think that helps build excitement which helps with fund raising.

Picture of the first phase at Cal Poly:

Have you heard whether the money is already in place or are you going to have to raise it along the way?

I'd be jealous if we weren't already in the middle of our own expansion.

What is nice is that they will have a ton of skyboxes. That is where the real money is generated.

[Grizzaholic]

I always thought a ton of money was generated by clothing sales?

[KAUMASS]

Looks awesome. Seems to me that Montana State is tired of losing in-state kids to U.Montana due to facilities. Do you think this will even the playing field with recruiting in Montana when this is finished? Or, will U.Montana have a 40,000 capacity at Wash-Grizz when Montana St. finishes their upgrades. Interesting battle shaping up.

You won't get Wa Griz to 40,000. But on the instate kids and out of state kids, I think stadium is something that they look at.

[IABison]

Way to go, MSU!xthumbsupx

Now if we could only figure out a way to add some seats to the Fargodome... xsmhx

Actually in state recruiting has been pretty even between the two schools the past few years, during the streak the griz did have an advantage though.

[GOKATS]

Field Turf.

22,000 according to the PDF.

[GOKATS]

Here's a clearer overhead-

[MplsBison]

Why not? Idaho made it.

[GOKATS]

Looks like the current away side will be the new home side?

I don't expect that to change- the visitor is in front of the booster side and the Cats are in front of the students.

[CatFan22]

I think it would be a giant mistake to put the visitors in front of the students. Just my opinion. :) ;)

[CopperCat]

Bobcat Stadium is shaping up to be one of the premier stadiums in the FCS. The field turf was a much needed addition, but the skyboxes and the bowling in of the south end zone will make that place a sight to behold. It should be done about the time I will be moving back home!! I will be buying season tickets for sure!!!!xthumbsupx xthumbsupx

On a side note, kudos to whoever designed the expansions!! Great job all around!

[GOKATS]

I think it would be a giant mistake to put the visitors in front of the students. Just my opinion. :) ;)

Which is exactly why I said I didn't expect any change. It could get ugly.xnodx

Once the south enzone is complete the visitors locker room will be under those seats rather than both teams locker rooms on the north end.

[Ronbo]

In 8 more years we'll be at 30,000+ but it will make Montana a state with two schools with top ten FCS stadiums.

[furman94]

WOW! Nice Stuff M State! It does look rather WAC or Sunbelt though!

Does that really matter?xrolleyesx

Move along, nothing to see here... xwhistlex

[appsfan]

It looks great. What is the ETA for completion of each phase? Also, the sky boxes with a patio look sweet. I'm sure they will generate big bucks for you.

[furman94]

Does that really matter?xrolleyesx

As in; I can hear the cries of MSU to get out of the FCS and join Idaho in the Random Western Conference of Shunned 1-AA Teams that now play in the FBS, to compete in the GE Lightbulb Bowl every year!

Hey now, the GE Lightbulb Bowl is a quite prestigious game!! Last year I believe Syracuse beat Minnesota in the battle of 1-11 teams...:D

Then you must have voices in your head that nobody else can hear. MSU won't be going anywhere for a very long time.

[eagle1]

I wish EWU would step up to the plate and do something like this to Woodward. Way to go MSU! That renovation looks first class. EWU better get their sh@t together or they will be decades behind. Go Eagles!!!

For those of us who don't dwell on ancient history the record the last 6 years is 3 and 3. And it'll be 4-3 when the Cats kick griz ass in Mizzou in Nov.xnodx

I hear ya man. 3-3 is the way you guys oughta think of it. 3-19 is not good. 35-67 with 5 ties for an all time record isn't so good either. I'd go with the 3-3 thing too if I were you.

[Montanan]

proposed stadium upgrades look great! xnodx

If you go back on the thread here FTG I think you're gonna find that there was nothing but accolades from the Griz fans until the Cat fans started the smack. Don't start crying smack when your side threw the first punch and a few of us decided to toss a couple back at you.

[ncbears]

In 8 more years we'll be at 30,000+ but it will make Montana a state with two schools with top ten FCS stadiums.

I just hope you guys move up so I don't have to read your stupid posts Rongay.

FTG, you know that isn't smack so let's deal with that truthfully. Like you and most Bobcat fans, a majority of Griz fans take a great deal of satisfaction playing where we are at. There are a few fans that think they need to stir the post with their dick measuring and so forth on the move up talk. Most of us disagree strongly with those people and their delusions of grandeur. Do as I have learned to do with them and dismiss them as you will see a couple of us did with the retorts of "does it", and "move along nothing to see here" comments. Unless you feel like arguing on any particular day that is how I deal with the BS comments from them. By "them" and "they' I mean Ronbo.

You know GOKATS, you got me on this one because it does kinda hurt a little. Whereas this past 6 years can be worn as a badge of honor for the Cat fans. It's the same record for both of us, and yet the perception for both schools is different. You're happy being there and we are not. I wonder why this is? Now do we want to keep pissin' down each others backs or should we get back to the discussion of the stadium upgrades and other information pertinent to the thread title. It's your call.

It's not a badge of honor, it just shows that there is parity between us now and the streak is over (I hope). As long as the Cats & Griz are at the top in the BSC every year I think we're both happy. I'm not in favor of the playoff expansion in 2010 and one of the things that concerns me is that we may not be able to schedule Cat/Griz as the last regular season game when that happens. I like it when the hunt for the conference championship comes down to Cat/Griz weekend, and I'm not taking anything away from the other BSC teams- I think EWU will be in the hunt this year and every team is a threat on AGS.

Back on topic, yes I'm excited about the upcoming expansion to Bobcat Stadium and the new addition to WA/griz is impressive.

I'm with you on the Griz/Cat game and hope that doesn't happen. One thing though to think about. It gives everyone a chance at a couple of at larges that would be real nice since we don't normally have the strength or perceived strength that some of the other conferences do. Having a little extra glimmer of hope that we could meet in the playoffs or a possible National Championship meeting someday would set this state on fire. Looking for the silver lining and that little extra chance may turn out to be really worthwhile in the future.

[Tod]

Wow! That looks fantastic!

Kind of WACky!!

OK, just kidding! Read the thread, made the bad joke, carry on.

Seriously, though, that looks great. xnodx xnodx xnodx xthumbsupx xthumbsupx xthumbsupx

[ursus arctos horribilis]

"I want you to be nice until it's time to not be nice."

True that Dalton. We'll just consider this the brief respite between rounds. But the upgrades in Dirty Bobcat town will only serve to make your team better, which will elevate the rivalry to even higher levels, which will elevate our program as well. Montana may be on the verge of both teams hosting first, and second round games on a more regular basis. Those are incredible things to have happen if it comes to fruition for this state.

Blah, blah, blah. I'm not alone. Quit trying to make it sound like I'm some kind of maverick. It's makes you anti move guys look immature and ignorant.

Latest poll. The last two polls have had a majority for the move. Kind of scary isn't it that the main reason you guys have for not moving up is about to CHANGE. "Oh we'll never move up without MSU and they don't have the facilities."

Trust me, nobody thinks of you as a maverick. Take a lot of stock in fan polls do ya? I'm not against a move up if the situation is right, but for right now the situation is perfect for us to be where we are at. When I hear the University start talking about a feasibility study then I will give it some credence. I'm not willing to seriously entertain the idea because of a poll on a message board and the fact that you think it is representative of the majority of Griz fans.

If you are putting all your stock in an egriz poll, you may need to re-assess your source. Egriz is a large purveyor of very ignorant and VERY immature fans.xcoffeex

Back to the topic at hand, our stadium. One thing that people really aren't talking about anymore is the prospect of an indoor practice facility. And judging by what they have drawn up for these improvments, I would say that there really isn't any plan to build one in the near future. Bozeman is NOTORIOUS for having crappy spring weather. But I guess the upshod in the whole thing is that you have a field that can be plowed and practiced on much more easily than grass, how often they would actually do that I don't know. For now I guess the team will have to accept the fact that spring practice schedules will done almost completely by the seat of their pants.

Frankly, I prefer the improved stadium over the practice facility. I've seen FBS stadiums that aren't as nice as Bobcat Stadium will be.

Actually Fields said at the press conference last week that construction of the indoor practice facility and academic center will will be the next step after completion of the student side sky suites, before any other stadium improvements.

You know why that is really a stupid comment? Because it's THE ONLY measure of fans feelings. You get the Missoulian to run a poll and I'll change my mind that the pendulum hasn't swung towards more than 50% wanting to play good teams instead of Fort Lewis, Southern Utah, and Central Washington. That 50% aren't tired of the weak Big Sky Conference ranking in Basketball and the winner always getting a 15 or 16 seed.

Funny thing is all you AGS readers. When the poll was 70% against a move up these jokers that oppose it loved the poll. They'd say "See told you so, very few want to move up." Now they are losing and they are RUNNING SCARED that the attitude of Griz fans is changing. We're fraken tired of the WEAK schedule.

Actually it's not that rapid if it's spread out over the next 8 yrs. though. Once they get some of the new stuff up I think you will see a dramatic increase in their fan support. That will spill over to a little added excitement for the team and the fans and I think they will be on their way to turning that into a hostile atmosphere for the opposing teams.

When the Kramer era started, attendance averaged maybe around 9k. Now the house is sold out almost every game, 13.5k every time. Don't sit there and tell me MSU doesn't have a growing fanbase that isn't showing up to games on Saturday.xnonox
