Mine are (in no particular order)
- Neyland Stadium (Tennessee)
- The Horseshoe (Ohio State)
- The Big House (Michigan)
- Happy Valley (Penn State)
- Autzen Stadium (Oregon)
- Kyle Field (Tex A&M)
- The Collesium (USC)
- Texas Memorial (Texas)
- Gaylord Oklahoma Memorial (Oklahoma)
- Am I missing any???

Have you guys been to any of these? Was it worth going to, or were you dissapointed?

- Autzen Stadium (Oregon)


Pat Forde's take on the whole Autzen thang. From his chat...

Tim (NC)

Pat, what stadiums have you been to that have the best big game atmosphere? To me, the SEC games seem to be on a whole other level.
Pat Forde

Tim: In the SEC: Night games at LSU. Georgia. Florida. Alabama. Tennessee. In the Big Ten: Beaver Stadium, the Horseshoe, the Big House. In the Big 12: Oklahoma's stadium. (Disappointed in Texas' vibe; not great atmosphere around the stadium.) Pac-10: LA Coliseum.
Corey (Chicago)


Barry (Vegas)

How could ypu leave out Autzen?

Pat Forde

Barry: I have been to Autzen and enjoyed it. Very cool atmosphere. But after hearing everyone proclaim it the loudest stadium on earth, I have to say: go South, young men.

I think you should add Notre Dame to the list. I've been and it's worth the trip. I've also been to

- Happy Valley (Penn State)
- Texas Memorial (Texas)
- Gaylord Oklahoma Memorial (Oklahoma)
The most impressive of all: The Rose Bowl. If you're a college football fan, you just have to go.

I'd love to see Penn State vs Ohio State at Happy Valley And I'll wait for The U and FSU to get better and see one of those at Doak Campbell

I assumed that the list was intended to include stadiums besides Tiger Stadium.

I've been here... piss poor experience (because it was last year), but even so, it was loud as hell!!

That sucks to hear about Autzen stadium. I have heard so many things about how ridiculously rowdy the stadium is, even though I can't imagine anything being louder than the UF/LSU game in '07 after they announced that USC lost. I still wouldn't mind going.

I've been to every game the past 3 seasons.

Maybe I should include where I have been...

LSU, UF, Aub, Bama, Uga, Ark (in Little rock)

I guess I would want to go to Ark in Fayetville. I've heard great things about how nice it is and how rowdy the fans can get for it being a smaller stadium (damn I have War Memorial in Little Rock!! )

I've been to Texas A&M and Texas. Texas A&M is definitely worth the trip. It is not your typical college/SEC atmosphere, but it is unique. I really enjoyed it. Texas...yawn. It was very quiet. A lot of people sat on their hands, tailgating was very weak, etc. The town of Austin is great though.
