According to the ESPN article below Texas A&M will add 20,000 seats to their football stadium making it the largest in the SEC with 102,500 seats. Former Gamecocks AD Eric Hyman is already putting his finger prints on Texas A&M's facilities upgrades. The article is below. If the Gamecocks ever expanded Williams Brice stadium I hope it will increase to 100,000 seats.
The Texas A&M board of regents announced approval of the redevelopment of the Aggies' longtime home with plans to expand capacity to 102,500, making it the largest stadium in the SEC and the third-largest stadium in college football.
Only Michigan and Penn State have greater capacity, and A&M's construction will just surpass Tennessee's 102,455 capacity at Neyland Stadium.
The project, which will cost $450 million, will begin after the 2013 football season concludes and is scheduled for completion in 2015.
