I was under the impression the two on the North end were supposed to be the same size as the one old one, which, not to be a dick, if thats the case makes me wonder how close to accurate these are.

NW Scoreboard:
31'6'' x 52'6'' (31.5 x 52.5) = 1,653.75 sq. ft.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
NE Scoreboard:
31'6'' x 52'6'' (31.5 x 52.5) = 1,653.75 sq. ft.
Current scoreboard.....567 sq ft.

I haven't seen any measurements, but are the two new boards on the north end bigger than the old one on the south end? They sure seem like it.

Keep in mind that the two mockups I did are to scale with the stadium in the photographs I used, but NOT to scale with each other.

Yes substantially. In a 'hurts your brain' kind of way.

Yeah, the new scoreboards in the north endzone are each much larger than the old south end zone board was.
New NW - 1,653.75 sf
New NE - 1,653.75 sf
Old South scoreboard - 567 sf

Who needs temporary lights anymore? We can just have the new scoreboards illuminate the field for night games.

I know the term 'elite' is quite open to interpretation as we've seen on here discussing MSU Bball in the last several years, but this should pretty much put the in stadium experience at Spartan Stadium in a pretty elite category IMO.
Think, now when anyone visits the stadium from around the midwest or most places, it will be the biggest college football screen they have seen in person.

Just the 10' ribbon (Which may be the coolest part if it isn't solely pimped out for ADS) will trap in so much sound let alone the giant boards...

Funny. Maybe we should put one Sparty in each corner to take care of the lighting?
