Saturday after Thanksgiving, Fighting Illini football will play a game on a soccer/lacrosse field. Northwestern University has announced that most NU homes games will be on the field used for those two sports.
NU says seating will be significantly increased for the next two seasons while the field is used for football. So one would hope. Current seating is 2,000. NU says seating will be 15,000-18,000, limited to season ticket holders and students. All others can be put on a wait list.
