The seating bowl at Gerald J. Ford Stadium is receiving its first major upgrade since SMU football returned to campus in 2000.
A portion of SMU's student section is being outfitted with "party platforms," which will debut this Friday during the Mustangs' home opener vs. TCU.
The school held a naming contest for the platforms in August, and "The Stables" is the apparent winner.
Athletic Director Rick Hart recently tweeted this construction update:
Looking forward to welcoming our @SMU students to Ford Stadium this Friday when we debut “The Stables.” Here’s a sneak peak.
