Byrd Stadium was renovated between the 1990 and 1991 seasons with a $3.5 million press box, reconstruction of the Stadium bowl and new seating, and new rest rooms and concession stands on the south side. Between 1991 and 1992, a $7 million Football Team Complex was completed by the east end zone. After the final home game of 1994, construction began on a $20 million renovation that includes adding an upper deck to the north side, and rest rooms and concession stands to the west and north sides.

The capacity of Byrd for the first game of 1995 will be over 48,000. The upper deck addition adds approximately 14,000 seats, but because seats were eliminated during the renovation, the net increase in seating is 6,000 over 1994's capacity of 42,000.
