OT - ESPNU College Town

I know this is inseason, so this may be a little too OT. However, being a bye week and having been inundated with commercials during every game I thought maybe it would slide..

I just signed up for college town on facebook, and associated myself with UM. Almost immediately I noticed you could buy the horseshoe and add it, but I don't see the Big House anywhere.

Has anyone played enough to tell me if its just a matter of time till it unlocks, or if it just isnt in the game?

I don't know if the Big House will be in or not. But by the time you get $85 to buy it, you will probably not care about the game anymore. I got lucky, ESPN had an ad on their home page a couple days ago and gave me Alabama's stadium as a free gift.

You know, they also lack a LIBRARY so in retrospect maybe it makes sense that they lack a Big House.  They know they're not up to U-M standards yet. 

They'll sell you a Block M and a hideous bronze wolverine in the interim, but before they put together a Big House, they better make some books available.

Not such an issue for the Horseshoe, of course.
