Truman:
Welcome.
I also hope that WKU is extended an invitation to the MAC. Bowling Green, Ky is a nice place, the basketball team is storied, the football team will eventually be able to compete with the stadium renovations, and the baseball team should be very competitive. IMO, WKU “fits
When evaluating a football stadium, some of the most important factors are in place at BG's stadium.
1-Being able to see the game well. At BG, every seat allows a good view of the game.
2-Access to your seats. I feel BG's stadium provides relatively good access. There can be a wait at the ramps during sell out games, but overall the access is pretty good.
3-Jumbotron--scoreboard, sound system, and videoboard. BG now has one of the top jumbotrons in the MAC. It is large, includes many features, and is easily visible from any seat.
4-Parking--There may be better parking in terms of the size of the lots and the distance you have to walk, but certainly this is very good at BG.
5-Driving convenience--with the improvements of Wooster St. in the last few months, it is pretty convenient to get to the stadium either from the East off of I-75 or the West.
6-Tailgating--BG has a large and convenient tailgating area.
7-Additional entertainment, events, access to other University buildings--Some relatively new areas are the Falcon Club tent in the South end zone and "Tent City" to the East of the stadium which allows organizations to set up tents for promotions, entertainment, etc. This is becoming a very popular area for many organizations.
8-Lighting--BG's new lighting system for night games is one of if not the best in the MAC.
9-The new Sebo Center--Preparation of the site for construction at the North end zone is underway and completion is planned for the Summer of 2006. The Sebo Center will include seating for the BG band and a pavilion for recruits, boosters, etc.
10-Finally, I will also mention how the BG stadium has been designed to allow for expansion much more easily than some other MAC stadiums.
Now, there are features of BG's stadium that may be less attractive and less functional than other MAC stadiums. But when everything is taken into account, it is just plain FALSE to say that BG's stadium is the worst in the MAC. Further, the set up of the stadium has few if any obstacles to make needed improvements. And I think we can be assured that additional improvements are on the way.
Everytime you get into "stadium rankings", you obviously will bring out some biases in favor of your own stadium. I've been to every single MAC stadium, (not all on gamedays, mind you), and based on the facility itself and its surroundings, (without adding in gameday atmosphere) I'd put 'em s follows:
1) Glass Bowl
2) Waldo
3) Kelly Shorts
4) Peden
5) Yager
6) NIU
7) Rubber Bowl
8) Buffalo
9) EMU
10) BSU
11) BG
12) Dix
Now, I would add a few qualifiers: Both Buffalo and EMU have pretty nice stadiums, but the track really detracts in terms of sightlines and how the stadiums looks. The Rubber Bowl is aging and has those stupid light posts, but has some charm (it was really rockn' for that Akron-Herd game last year!) and is pretty large at 35K.
I ranked Peden a notch ahead of Yager, but that's before our renovations are completed this summer.....I'd then jump us up right with the Glass Bowl and Waldo. Also, BSU has made a number of improvements, and I think it's better than BG and KSU's stadiums now.....it will be even better as they're planning another $12 MM of enhancements.

Time and time again I have to justify my program on here with all the straight ignorance that populates the board. I know It sounds boastful, but time and time again they doubt OU accomplishments when it comes to crowds, facilities or play.
The Convo is the biggest, most legendary hoops facility in the MAC.
Peden is the oldest most architecturally impressive football facility in the MAC. Its the Wrigley field of football stadiums.
I don't call putting a George Jetson space mobile in your end zone as a classy move. I'm sorry.
#1)I find the Glass Bowl more architecturally impressive than Peden.
My exbrother-in-law, who I was guardian for,is a graduate of OU.
I spent 4 years of Parents'Weekend going to watch OU play FB in
Peden.
#2)Anybody who says OU has never done anything in BB is
either ignorant or trying to push Bobcat fans' buttons.
I've got to say: Walter Luckett never lived up to his true
potential,the Rockets got the better half of the Lehman
Brothers,and the Bobcats' BB looks very good for the next couple
of years.
#3)The Convo is the largest arena in the MAC.Is it the most
legendary? Most MAC schools could make their own case.Millett,
Savage Hall(Opening game, the Rockets knocked off #1 Indiana-
Ever upset#1 in the Convo?)Anderson Arena,etc.I would have to
say that at this point, Anderson Arena is probably the most
legendary in the MAC.Being an old facility where Nate Thurmond
and Co. played-to me that is legendary. OU has never turned out
a player the caliber of Thurmond.The Bobcats have had some
good ones,but Nate might be the best player to ever come out of
the MAC.
#4)The Hilltoppers are an excellent program with great tradition.
They have a" Final Four" appearance,which no other MAC school
has. Their 1971 NCAA Tournament blowout of Kentucky107-83 is
still a major reason you don't see WKU playing the
Wildcats.They certainly would add to the MAC's BB image. Also
WKU would improve the MAC's ability to BB recruit in Kentucky
and Tennessee.

WKU had the 4th best record in Sun Belt play and got swept by lower rated Little Rock. Split home and neutral site with lower rated but better record Denver, beat better rated Kent State at home.
Not sure the RPI really tells us much other than whether a school played a decent schedule and performed OK on it, I don't think it is a very good measure of power.
I can't see Toledo's Glass Bowl as anywhere near the #1 stadium in the MAC. What elevated the ranking of the stadium in the perception of many people was the addition of the press tower. Without doubt, it is the most impressive press facility in the MAC.
However, once you look beyond this, there is a lot to be desired. Have you ever sat on the East side? A second level was constructed a number of years ago, but it was done on the cheap. If you go under the stands for concessions, the facilities for which also are cheap and inconvenient, you feel like you are in a dimly lit I-beam warehouse.
The restrooms on the East side have undergone a bit of improvement, but they still have a third world feel to them and the stonework in much of the stadium has that WPA 30s character.
When you consider other aspects like driving convenience, parking, walking distance and convenience (you have to dodge cars, wait for traffic officers to clear the way, etc.) it is far from adequate and comfortable.
A major problem, in my view, is the cramped and congested feeling about the surroundings. I suppose it might be possible to tear down some adjacent buildings to improve parking, walkways, tailgating, but I'm not sure how possible this would be.
You may be able to take a "pretty picture" of the Glass Bowl, but attending a game there presents a different perception.

Parking and access for games during the week is tough.Saturday games- no problem.Usually the games during the week are ESPN
or ESPN2 televised,so there are some trade-offs.I think you'll see with this incoming freshmen classwhat the pay-off is.
That's part of the problem in trying to force rank stadiums, Santa Fe....part of your negatives on the Glass Bowl have to do with practical gameday convenienes, which I wasn't taking into account when I tried to rank stadiums. Parking is very convenient at a couple of MAC stadiums, but does that mean that the stadiums are better then??
Maybe the best way to do it is a grid like one of the on-line sports reporters did a couple of years back....problem then is that I doubt that many of us have actually been to a MAC game at every MAC stadiums....if you haven't, how could you rank conveniences, parking, atmposphere. You just can't. I've stopped by every MAC stadium, (even Buffalo!) but I've only to been to Miami games in about 9 (BSU, Miami, EMU, CMU, WMU, NIU, BG, OU, Akron) of them, so I can't really rank stadiums on atmosphere, etc.

I have sat on the East side numerous times, including in the upper deck for a 1997 game against Western Michigan. I can tell you that there isn't a bad seat in the Glass Bowl. You can see the field great from every seat.....and you can't say that about a lot of football stadiums. The bathrooms on that side aren't state of the art, but then again I have seen much worse bathrooms and concession stands at college stadiums too.
When a place like the Sporting News does their ranking of stadiums, they take many things into consideration. Things like the tradition and the twin towers in the north endzone add to the stadium. The press box like you said, and the fact that there isn't a bad seat in the whole stadium. The atmosphere may be considered as well. When our new video scoreboard was put in in 1999, it was state of the art and the first of its kind in the MAC. These are the things that were considered when ranking our stadium #1 in the MAC.
Concession stands and bathrooms on the visiting side are just a small piece that is taken into consideration, and probably isn't weighted that high in these rankings. Of course an opposing team's fan is going to rank them higher, but no one else is.

I am familiar with the Convo, and it is the absolute best in the MAC. I am not trying to push any Ohio buttons, and I am not ignorant of Ohio’s basketball success. But I take issue with an Ohio-Marshall fan who minimizes WKU basketball when WKU has had more basketball success than Ohio and Marshall put together.

I'm not going to get into ranking things yet, but I have to comment on a few of your points.
#4, #6 - Doyt is in the middle of a barren wasteland next to the interstate. Of course there's plenty of space to park and tailgate. That's actually one of the negative things that impact the gameday feel. Gravel tossed on the ground does not equal landscaping.
#5 - Despite the bad attendance BG has suffered, every game I've driven to has been a pain in the butt in terms of driving convenience. For the UT game this year, I guarantee the line exiting I-75 will *again* be backed up 2 miles down the interstate. That's inconvenient and dangerous. Considering the parking area is just a wide open space, there sure are a small number of entrances.
#10 - This is actually why I don't like the way the Doyt looks. You say "designed to allow for expansion," I say it looks like they simply forgot to pour the cement to fill in the endzone stands. It looks like they ran out of money during construction.
I'm not trying to be argumentative, it's just the opinion of one person.

Eventually, an exit will be put in north of the stadium.
In the mean time, consider taking the Dixie Highway down from I-475 to Poe Road, then heading east toward the north stadium entrance. This is a very easy drive and quicker on game days.

A northern exit would be good but sadly it sounds like the project will move at the speed of state. Thanks for the alternate route, we'll need it.

Ranking MAC Stadiums while wearing homer glasses is not the way to do it. A while back someone posted a ranking of MAC stadiums that was not done by the homers of this forum. It ranked Toledo first, Western second, and Marshall third. Since that ranking Western Michigan integrated a 25 million dollar indoor practice facility into our stadium at the east end zone. And since that ranking Toledo and Marshall has made no significant improvements. So why don’t you all just take off your homer glasses and except the truth. At least for now Western Michigan has the best football stadium in the MAC.
Probably the funniest Kit-Cat comment on the thread has been his reasoning that WKU would not add to basketball if they did not compete for a MAC championship every year.
Before a six-way tie for 2nd and one great week of basketball when had been the prior time OU last competed for a MAC Title? Was it in the 21st century? OU is lucky it didn't get kicked out of the MAC five years ago. You don't have to win 14 games a year to be worth anything.
Kentucky hosts a MAC school every year in Cincy so that they can cater to their SW Ohio fans. They never expect to lose those games, but they can't afford to play WKU simply because of the backlash if they did. It has nothing to do with OU or anyone else being more respected.
On the stadium debate, the 10 factors listed earlier is why it's impossible to rank them. It depends from who's point of view and what you want from a stadium. As for Dix, it is really bad in a lot of ways. But the field turf will help this year, always enough parking right beside the stadium (except for Akron but that was a weeknight issue). :D

Here we go again....more disrespect.
In the last 12 years Billy Bobs....
1.Won the 93-94 MAC Championship.
2.Won the Pre Season NIT in 1994-95 with a #15 ranking in the polls.
3.First round draft pick in the NBA draft (Gary Trent) 1995
4.Won the Syracuse Classic in 1998, ranked #1 in the sagarin's
5.Pre season top 25 favorite in 2002-3 by many many media outlets.
6.Second round draft pick in the NBA draft (Brandon Hunter) 2003
7.Won the 2004-05 MAC Championship
8.Four 20 win seasons in the last 12 years
9.Five more seasons at 16 wins or better.
10. Only one season under 10 wins.
Aside from an off season or two, OU has been one of the top 5 programs in this league across the last decade or so in the MAC.

No, they're honestly assessing it's asthetic qualities, or lack thereof. BG fans, otoh, romanticize if due to it being a place they have enjoyed, and are therefore unable to form an objective opinion.
