It is a beautiful facility. It will get upgrades this year because the Vikings are moving in for two years while the Hump is imploded and their new Taj Mahal is built in its place. One of the nice things, yet downsides for late November football is that the concourses are all open. This means you can see the game while walking the concourse, but it also means that the Northwest wind can't be avoided. For the college games that's generally not a problem, but those late year Vikings games are going to be nasty. Good thing I don't care about the NFL.

The sight lines at the Bank (TCF Stadium) are very good and you feel like your right over the field. The atmosphere is getting better as the Gophers win, but Camp Randall is (and I hate to say this because it's the Badgers) a must-see stadium for college football fans. It's old school and intensely intimate and extremely noisy for an outdoor stadium.  I agree with another poster that the Big House can let the noise out and not seem that loud for the number of people stuffed inside, but Camp Randall will knock you out with noise.

Just wondering if the Syracuse AD has any future plans for a seperate new football and basketball stadiums for the Orange? I would think the sharing of an old inflated dome stadium with antiquated amenities and no air-conditioning would be a recruiting problem. I could see this as being more true once your HOF basketball coach steps down. Any thoughts on new facilities being thrown around?
