The new-and-improved west side will include new suites, a Hall of Champions, and TV broadcast facilities.

Texas A&M says the construction project is the “largest stadium redevelopment in the history of college football.”

Construction should be done in time for the 2015 football season.

The improved stadium should be able to seat 102,512.
