When I was working for and going school it was the UNI Dome, we won 1 game in football, blowing multiple leads in 2nd half. In Basketball, we won more than lost, but just seemed to always be close games with crazy officiating.

As a fan of LSU it has to be Bryant-Denny. Rupp Arena you are just used to it and know once the Go Big Blue chant starts it is over, a 15-0 run is coming. As a SMU fan it is DKR-Memorial Stadium in Austin, they have not won there since 1980 and once since 1967.

I remember when the Pistons were trying to get over the hump, the Boston Garden seemed cursed, especially with Bird stealing the ball at the end of game 5 in '87 and Dantley/Vinnie colliding heads in game 7.

But, the demon by far the worst may have been exorcised this weekend.

Surprisingly, LSU is 11-6 in Tuscaloosa since 1982. (So basically post-Bear Bryant.)

Although this last stretch has sucked, for sure.

But the issue to me for Bryant Denny is Alabama has held two long winning streaks and their longest of the streaks is double of LSU's longest.

If that makes sense, the way I worded it.

Well, while Bear Bryant was there and was kicking our arse year after year, the games were in Birmingham.

Actually, three of the games in that 11-6 record since Bear Bryant were in Birmingham.

ETA: After doing a little research, LSU is 10-12 all-time in Tuscaloosa, but 9-8 in Bryant-Denny Stadium. (1-4 there pre-Bryant-Denny)

Ryan Field at Northwestern.

Wisconsin hasn't won there since 1999.

I have no idea what it is because they absolutely drill Northwestern in Madison.

This is easy! Auburn hasn't won at LSU since 1999.

doesn't matter who we play there, Chalmette never seems to play well at Joe Yenni Stadium...

on the contrary, we kick arse at Hoss Mehmtas

for the Pels (and probably most of the NBA), it's the Rose Garden and the Jazz's arena. no matter their records you hate walking into those buildings

the Saints haven't won in Denver or New England in two decades but we rarely play there... among the NFC I guess it's Chicago we dreaded at the beginning of the Payton era, but overall we've done okay there. historically we've sucked at the entire NFC East. Quietly we haven't won at AZ since 2000

I can't stand Vanderbilt's basketball arena. Baseline benches are the worst.

The field at Neyland is fertilized with pieces of Georgia players' ACLs.

Actually as an LSU fan it's gotta be Commonwealth Stadium.

We have never played a good game at Kentucky...ever.

Northwestern.

If I recall correctly, UW hasn't won there in football since 1999. fricking house of horrors, and that stadium and fanbase are terrible. They're not really assholes, they just suck and they're dorky.

For LSU, it's Jordan Hare.

For FSU, it's at Boston College. The field is trash.

Florida at Bryant-Denny Stadium. Only one win there since 1963. Although playing at Jordan-Hare has been a pain in the arse too.

Penn State doesn't seem to have all the many problems in one particular place, but Iowa in general has been a surprisingly difficult opponent for us
