I wouldn't mind seeing the lower Preferred sections have proper, non-silver, seats.  That might interfere with hoops seating, so it might need some adjustment (A&B only?).  Yes, it would impact capacity by a bit, but 47k vs. 49k  isn't that big of a difference when both exceed recent attendance figures.
 
The big issue, though, is that there aren't enough A & B preferred season ticket holders to fill the silver (on the visitors' side) between the 30s.  I'd like to see the Preferred scheme "rejuvinated" to allow the Preferred sections to become a bit more compressed, thereby filling the (current) silver seats.  Such a re-shuffling could be problematic, but I suspect that there are enough (current) empty seats to allow this to happen fairly smoothly.
 
As a point of reference, I was at Bobby Dodd Stadium a little while ago.  The lower section seating was almost identical to that at the Carrier Dome.  As an aside, one game held at Grant Field (the field inside Bobby Dodd Stadium) that might've been interesting to have seen was:
 
[INDENT=1]October 7, 1916: Georgia Tech 222, Cumberland College 0[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]In the most lopsided game in American football history, Georgia Tech, under legendary coach John Heisman, defeated Cumberland College 222-0.[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1] [/INDENT]
Yes, that was "the" Heisman as coach.  He actually was the "football, basketball, and baseball head coach and athletic director" at Georgia Tech.
