Michigan Stadium will live up to its 'Big House' moniker during the 2010 football season. During tours of the stadium on Wednesday, University of Michigan officials announced that its official post-renovation capacity for the 2010 football season will be 109,901, once again making it the largest stadium in the country.
The Michigan football program has long been proud to play in front of the largest live football audience in the country - and announce it over the loud speakers - on game days.
Renovations during the 2009 season, however, temporarily vacated that claim to Penn State's Beaver Stadium. Michigan will "reclaim its title" on Sept. 4 in the season opener against the University of Connecticut. (MGoBlue.com story)
