Northwestern is set to host Penn State at the new Ryan Field in its inaugural game on October 2 🏟️👀








Northwestern football's new stadium, Ryan Field, continues to evolve how college football stadiums are built. usatoday.com/story/sports/n…

Northwestern is creating a 2,000-student "Wildcat Wall" behind the end zone of its $862M stadium, modeled after European soccer supports sections. "No one's ever imported a supporter section from European football to create a student section."

Northwestern's student section @NewRyanField is being modeled after the standing supporters sections in European soccer. Includes room for 2,000 behind the South end zone. Section is being built at 33 degrees (65% slope) with railings in place and seating for those who need them.






Toured @NewRyanField this AM and experienced the enhanced sightlines that will be the stadium’s signature trait. A very unique facility and one with elements that could be modeled by others, as CFB stadiums are reimagined. Thanks to @PatRyanChicago and the Ryan Sports staff.

Inside Northwestern’s bet on the future of college football stadiums: Fewer seats, perfect sight lines, and views closer to the field than a basketball arena. “This will be the best place to see a football game in America, college or NFL.” — Pat Ryan Jr. nytimes.com/athletic/68342…
