There was a article about the control room and how many people it takes work to run these scoreboards on Jags.com. The problem is I cannot find it. My college is building one like it and friends of mine have all kinds of questions. Any help would be appreciated.

 

I think the article was between August and September 2014

I'm pretty good at googling and I had no luck.

 

Auburn's is roughly 200 feet wide, right?  I think that surpasses the Cowboys.

I know the video you're talking about.  I think it's actually on the site, but in the meantime, the boards were the centerpiece of a report CBS did on Super Bowl Sunday about the company that built the boards.

 

It was discussed in this thread.

Here's another video on the site that has some behind the scenes detail about the boards.
