The largest video board in college football is now fully operational.

Auburn illuminated the night sky Sunday evening in a night test of its new 190-by-57 foot behemoth and its glow was a pretty as we all thought it would be.

Auburn actually powered its $13.9 million scoreboard on Friday during the course of several hours. The school took a time-lapse video of the process and posted it to its YouTube page.

The construction and installation of the board took about three months and coach Gus Malzahn said during SEC media days he was eager to practice with it on. Auburn fall camp begins Aug. 4.

“It’s big. It’s real big. When you get on the field and you actually see how big it is, it’s really something else,” Malzahn said. “I know our players are going to enjoy it. Me, as a coach, there will be times I’ll look at the scoreboard either on a replay or during a certain play, especially if the ball’s in the middle. It will take me a little getting used to, but I’m really looking forward to having it. And we are going to practice some in fall camp with that thing on so it won’t be a shock to us that first game at home.”
