    As a Troy alum I was intitially dumbfounded when I saw my home stadium on here, but then you mentioned the number of practice fields and yeah I'd have to agree 😂
    I think the high school across the street from the stadium uses one of the practice fields as both they and Troy play at the stadium. But as for the other ones, I have no clue. It gets even more absurd when you realize that the band doesn't even use one of them (except on the Band Day morning rehearsal) as they have their own separate practice field across campus, and right below that practice field is a much larger intramurals field for things like flag football, rec soccer, and ultimate frisbee. It's kind of absurd.
    The stadium itself though is pretty nice for a Sun Belt team, especially since they upgraded it and added the north endzone seating and athletics facility a few years back, which I guess hasn't been updated on Google Earth yet

Don't be surprised if it takes a while though. Our rivalry with Middle Tennessee, for example, had an eight year hiatus - likely due to them moving from the Sun Belt to C-USA - until we played them twice in 2020. I won't be shocked if it takes years for Troy and Jax St. to meet again, but I'll be first in line to buy a ticket when they do

The stadium is now closed in. There's a big Jumbotron in the newly closed in side and some smaller screens on the opposite end. We do have a lot of practice fields, but with how much rain we get, it guarantees one of them won't be flooded. And we are in talks to get an indoor facility in the coming years

    @McIrish_Lad 9 месяцев назад +2

    My bias up front, I'm an Ohio alum which I'm sure is in large part why I take offense to Peden Stadium being on this list. But for being a MAC stadium I think it's perfect. It's in a perfect locations for students, when you live on campus it's max a 15 min walk away(like 5 if you live on west green). It's not oversized for the audience it pulls(like Akron) or patch worked together(like Kent, thank you for at least putting them lower). Peden isn't "incomplete", it was originally built when the horseshoe design was really popular for college stadiums nationwide. In the early 2000's they looked into closing in the stadium but because it's flanked by the Hocking River on the south side, the ground was deemed not structurally sound enough for the weight to extend the stadium. But it doesn't need to be closed in, it's fine as is and it's fun to have the viewing hill on the south side of the stadium. It's loved by student's and locals alike. I understand if someone were to look at it and say "meh, it's not my personal taste"...but by no stretch of the imagination is at one of the worst D1 stadiums...

    FirstBank in Nashville for Vandy was easily one of the worst out there. Thank GOD it's finally getting renovated.

    I was the electrical engineer on the Kent State stadium upgrades a decade ago. It was the new scoreboard and concession stand below it and new entrance gates on each side. The upgrades were due to the fact that ESPN was going to televise a game there the year after and they needed to upgrade the power and video for a national broadcast and all of ESPN’s trucks. We also upgraded the varsity lounge and some smaller concession stands.

    I’ve been to MTSU’s football stadium once and it does look a bit janky. Even though Murfreesboro is a booming city, and MTSU’s record has been improving with 2 consecutive bowl game wins, no one really wants to go there.
    (It might be because no one wants to fry or freeze their asses on the completely unprotected bleachers.)

      It’s getting a renovation. They moved up to d1 when u still had to have more than 30,000 seats. Which is why it looks so dumb in the upper deck.

    The next time you do a critiquing stadiums down to D3, take a look at Millsaps College in Jackson, MS. Harper Davis Field has a capacity of 3,000 but 2200 of which is on the visitor side. It is right beside the basketball facility that they call the Hangar Dome so you get quite an interesting backdrop. They're well known for being on the losing end of a 15ish lateral play that won the Espy for Play of the Year against Trinity College. They were also one of the first stadiums to get a beer garden to bring in additional fans from the surrounding area so they would come there instead of going to Nearby Jackson State.

    A stadium that isn’t getting renovations any time soon that needs it is SECU Stadium for my Maryland Terps. They call it “The Shell” but the seating doesn’t even wrap all the way around the field. It’s a classic case of somebody trying to be too smart and mess up what should be really simple.

    Was honestly expecting to see Martin Stadium on the list. You know that there are reasons nobody wanted Wazzu for their conference expansion.
    Also, it's a good thing Idaho fled back to FCS, because the Kibbie Dome (news flash
    ..it's NOT a dome) would have topped this list.

    I attend MTSU, they're removing a portion of that upper level and replacing it with like a mazzive locker room/team store thing? It is still under constructuion and the first home game is in like 2 weeks 😭. We aren't good obviously, but the stadium isn't half bad, it gets the job done for games . But hey, Reed Blankenship and Kevin Byard are alumni, as well as some others who were on the Cheifs and Rams superbowl teams!

      Walker County is one of the poorest counties in Texas. Most SHSU alumni end up as teachers or working as office drones. Where's all this money to fix the stadium supposed to come from?

    I was half expecting to see Jerry Richardson Stadium, home of my beloved Charlotte 49ers, on this list. I'm guessing you gave us a Clinton pardon because we're about to start our 11th season of football. We really should have put that fieldhouse more than 18 inches away from the goal post......
