Folks, don't pay any attention to no nothings on this subject like Ubben.

I've followed this stuff for years. When you look at the scope of the WSC and compare it to other projects with similar scopes. That being just pressbox/suites/clubs, ingress/egress, concessions and amenities on just one side of the stadium. Not touching any other parts of the stadium or adding any new seating or redoing any of the existing seating in the seating bowl/decks. WSC is one of the most expensive, if not THE most expensive project of its kind to date in the facilities arms race. Yes, other projects have been more expensive but the scope of the project in every case has been much more expansive; rebuilding (or building new) entire stadiums, or renovating the entirety of a stadium. WSC is just one side of the stadium, and because of the way BSFS is built there's not 10's of millions of dollars being poured into the mundane task of supporting the structure atop an above grade seating bowl. Yet, that said, the projected cost is $75 million dollars.
Stanford rebuilt it's entire football stadium, paying premium prices to have it completed in just one year for just $15 million dollars more than WSC. CFU built a brand new 50,000 seat football stadium for $25 million less than WSC just a few years ago. OU spent $125 million and that touched literally everything about their stadium, their "Vanier Complex" and other items. TCU and Okie State literally rebuilt their entire stadiums so the scope of those projects is not comparable to WSC. Texas Tech spent $84 million and basically re-did their entire stadium, and the WSC will cost $25 million more than the press box/suites and renovated restrooms/concessions they built. Baylor is building an entirely new stadium from scratch.
I've looked at, read the particulars etc on nearly every major facilities project at every D1 (FBS and FCS) school across the country over the last 20 years (and in some cases before) . . . WSC is as big time as it gets kids.
