Rank Big Ten Football Facilities

[MisterWinky]

I was looking for info on who has the best facilities in the Big Ten. Stadium itself is good, but I was thinking more about weight room, practice facility, student center. How do the Hawks stack up now and when the new practice facility is up? From what I could find, OSU, MSU, Neb and Mich are mentioned as having the best in conference.

the Gophers are pretty good. Everyone likes to talk crap because their stadium isnt as big as the others, but their facilities are pretty decent.

I don't know how many people will be able to rate practice facilities, since no one has probably been to many or any of them. I would just google "richest big ten schools" and then copy those rankings for your answer.

Well, I havent been to any of them, but from what I gather (I used to live right there) Gophers stuff is not to far down the list.

It would probably be much easier for us to rank stadiums. I've been to all but PSU. I have no idea what the weight rooms are like. I've only been inside Iowa's practice facility, offices, and weight room.

The new Minny stadium is actually really nice. It is expandable (in the odd event they get really good again). It's also right on campus, and next to Williams Arena.

Yes, this info will probably have to come from those who have relatives/friends who have toured facilities. It's always an arms race and I am glad Iowa is updating theirs as they had fallen behind in that department.

There was an Omaha Weird Herald beat writer (don't remember who or exactly when) apparently toured all of the Big 10 campuses recently, and he said that Nebraska's facilities are right up there near the top. I thought he did mention something about Kinnick Stadium, maybe it was the atmosphere, I can't remember.
