I'm really surprised this hasn't happened at a football game in general.
One of the Paris targets was a soccer stadium - the bomber couldn't get inside, so he detonated outside.

Lets say terrorist attack an SEC football stadium
It's not that easy to hit a large venue like that. It would be much easier to hit a smaller venue. Large venues such as an SEC stadium are usually swept prior to the game and everyone is searched as they come in.
But, if it did happen, it would just mean increased security at all venues. However, there is a tipping point. There are only so many bomb techs, police officers, terrorism professionals that can screen events. There's only so much that can be done.

Yes they want to make a statement. So they would likely target a sporting event that is known across a wider region. People outside of the US don't have a clue about college football.
International Soccer Friendly
World Series
Super Bowl
Olympic Event
Any of those would be a more likely target.
ETA - Forgot NBA game.

There'd be widespread condemnation of racist white southerners, and the usual apologists for Islam

Lets say terrorist attack an SEC football stadium on a Saturday and hundreds are killed. Lets also say an unstable, grief filled father lights up a few at a mosque, but is somehow found not guilty at the trial.
I read something similar to this once. "A Time To Kill" by John Grisham.

Nervous mosques everywhere I would imagine. I only know of two in total in my area and one is fenced off fairly well. The other is pretty much wide open. I would assume that it will take an egg or two at least.

You seriously fantasize about shite like this?? You may need to talk to somebody...

It would be interesting to see if this happened at bama, would those in Louisiana hashtag and show red colors on Facebook because we all know that's what really matters these days.
Now that's just crazy talk

What? I've been to tiger stadium, BDS, JHS, and Sanford. I've only been searched once and that was in auburn where they patted down like every 5th college aged person for booze. It would be stupid easy for someone in a suicide vest to get into an sec stadium when the weather turns cool

No.
Even gumps would stand up terrorists to defend their sister-wives.
And as far as your scenario goes, just because someone blows up folks doesn't mean you can go kill people who had nothing to do with it with impunity, not outside of a war setting.

No one's going to use #jesuisgump.
