Renovation for A&M's Kyle Field may cost up to $450M

The Bryan-College Station Eagle reported on Tuesday that the Texas A&M University System plans to spend up to $450 million on renovations to Kyle Field.

The move would keep home football games in College Station, and local governments are reportedly being asked to add in $38 million.

There were concerns earlier in the year that the Aggies might play a season away from Kyle Field — likely at Houston's Reliant Stadium — while A&M's home of more than 100 years underwent a big-time renovation.

Renovation costs ranged from $425 million to $450 million, and would produce seating to accommodate up to 103,500, officials told the Eagle. In addition, the construction would be spread over three years.
