One stadium from each conference

[MgoBlue-LightSpecial]

The "Stadium Capactiy" thread got me thinking about which stadiums and game day environements I'd like to experience most if I could pick just one school from each of the major conferences. Here's how I'd break them down:

Big Ten - Sadly, Michigan Stadium and Spartan Stadium are the only two stadiums I've been to in the Big Ten. So the obvious choice here would be The Shoe, but I'd actually have to pull the trigger on Camp Randall. The LSU of the north, I've heard nothing but crazy things about Wisconsin football games. Afternoon games? No biggie, the fans and student section will start drinking the night before the game, and through the morning. Hell, who am I kidding. These are Wisconsinites. They'd be doing that anyway.

Pac 10 - I think by most accounts, Autzen is the coolest place to see a game in the Pac 10. I dig that it's still relatively small for major D1 standards, which is especially cool because I can only imagine how many times the decible level could still destroy that of a Michigan Stadium. Seriously folks...the ONLY reason you'd want to go to Michigan Stadium would be for that whole "to say I've been there" thing. It's no college football environment. Anyway, though the Coliseum and Rose Bowl are legendary places to be sure, Autzen seems a better "college atmosphere," and that factors big into my decision making.

ACC - This one's a no-brainer for me. Doak Campbell. I was raised in Florida for a good deal of my childhood, and during this time, latched onto FSU football. My dad was never a big sports guy, so I got into college football almost entirely on my own. Hurricane and Gator fans were just so obnoxious, and before I really understood the game of football, I thought those Garnett and Gold uniforms looked pretty freaking cool. That, combined with those exciting, high powered offenses, and I was sold on the team. Today, I like to see FSU do well, but after the move to Michigan, I became a full time Spartan fan. I know what you're thinking...yeah, I jumped off the bandwagon, and actually found a way to downgrade. That's a rare occurrence, I know, although I read that Toddowen recently made the switch himself.

Big 12 - This conference is probably the toughest one for me. I want to see if Big Red fans really are the most passionate in the country. I'd like to go to Lincoln. Norman is a close second followed by Austin.

Big East - A true college town through and through, I'd probably have to go with Morgantown. I'd like to see those oafish hicks pop each other in the jawbones after they score a touchdown. I'm sure it'd be a rabid environment, and contrary to what a lot of folks here say, I'm certain I'd see some good football.

SEC - After most of what I've seen, heard, and read, LSU fans have got me convinced I'd choose Death Valley. That place might be the only environment I've seen on TV that makes me feel like I'm actually there. TigerFan talks a good game about his team, his stadium, his town; and every single time I've heard an account from a neutral party about that place, it's one that details how their expectations had been SURPASSED. That's tough to do, again, considering how much TigerFan talks. Definitely props on that. Rocky Top would be a distant second.

[Dinsdale]

Pac 10 - I think by most accounts, Autzen is the coolest place to see a game in the Pac 10. I dig that it's still relatively small for major D1 standards, which is especially cool because I can only imagine how many times the decible level could still destroy that of a Michigan Stadium.

While it's known I'm a U of O honk...

The "loudest stadium" thing is kinda bullshit. Autzen has a crazy-huge PA system, and the stadium announcer's microphone isn't a directional/muted thing -- it picks up all of the crowd noise, which reverberates through the stadium speakers(which are huge). It's also kind of in a "bowl," with very high outside walls, which tend to reflect the sound back into the building.


Don't get me wrong -- it's still freaking crazy, with or without the amplified reverberation. I think much of it stems from Oregon's, and Eugene in general's casual attitude towards open drug use and public intoxication. It's a bunch of very laid back, yet very loud drunks.

It was recently described by Michigan head football coach Lloyd Carr as "the loudest stadium I've ever been in." The Michigan Daily went into further detail, writing "Autzen's 59,000 strong make the 'Big House' collectively sound like a pathetic whimper. It's louder than 'The Swamp' at Florida, 'The Shoe' in Columbus and 'Death Valley' at Louisiana State. Autzen Stadium is where great teams go to die.

It's also in a beautiful setting. Eugene is near the head of The Valley (that would be the Willamette Valley), and it kinda necks down there, resulting in mountain ranges on either side of town. And to top off the atmosphere thing, after the game, there's a cool footbridge that you can walk over the Willamette and go hit the bars across the river(which runs right next to the stadium).

I gotta get some tix this season -- it's been too long.

I want to check out a game in Lincoln, someday. That sounds like the Mecca of CFB crowds.

[War Wagon]

Big 12 - This conference is probably the toughest one for me. I want to see if Big Red fans really are the most passionate in the country. I'd like to go to Lincoln.

Hard to say if they're the most passionate or not. That's a rather subjective criteria, but they certainly love their team as much or more than any other fanbase and travel in droves to wherever the Corn is playing. I've personally seen how they've invaded Columbia and KC for games and for the most part, they're a class act.

I've never actually been to a game in Lincoln, but I've heard stories about how they applaud for the other team if they just give a good effort whilst getting thrashed 56-0. If there's any criticism of Husker fans to be found, it's that they're almost too nice.

[Terry in Crapchester]

Interesting topic. I probably haven't been to as many different college football venues as many in here. I'll go with:

Big Ten: Since I've already been to the Big House, I'd probably choose Happy Valley, maybe the Shoe.

Pac-10: I have made it to the Mausoleum for a ND-'SC game. Of the ones left, Autzen sounds pretty cool, but I think my first choice would be Husky Stadium, just for the rather unusual atmosphere there (tailgating on boats, etc.) Dinsdale in 5, 4, 3, 2, . . .

ACC: The only venue I've made it to in the ACC is the Orange Bowl, long before the Hurrigangstas joined the ACC. The comments that have been made in here about that venue are pretty much on the money. I think I'd take Death Valley here, just because I think the atmosphere would probably be a bit more raucous than Doak Campbell.

Big 12: Never been to a Big 12 game. For purely football reasons, I'd take Lincoln here, with Norman second. But if you're talking tailgating, etc., I'd probably prefer Austin.

Big East: As close as I live to the Carrier Dome, and as many times as I've been, I've never seen a Syracuse football game there. So that would have to be my pick. Morgantown is second.

SEC: The closest I've been to a SEC game was the Georgia-Michigan State Gator Bowl matchup on 1/1/89, which in many respects was a de facto home game for Georgia. Based on what I've heard in here, I'd go with LSU.

Keep in mind, this was based on conference affiliation. Of course, my opinion is that ND Stadium is, or at least should be, the mecca of college football. Not to put down any other school or its fanbase, but there really hasn't been all that much reason for me to go anyplace else to watch a game.

[Dinsdale]

I think my first choice would be Husky Stadium, just for the rather unusual atmosphere there (tailgating on boats, etc.) Dinsdale in 5, 4, 3, 2, . . ..

Don't leave out the junkies begging for quarters all over the sidewalks.


Believe it or not, I've never been to a game at Fusky Stadium. Been outside of it. Lots of my sports-buds have, and they all universally claim it's a truly putrid sporting experience.

Not quite as nice and luxurious as a shitty high school stadium, only much larger. And the breeze coming off the lake makes it feel like January in September.

Maybe they should play their games in Seahawk Stadium. Doesn't hold as many people, but it's not like the Frontrunners are buying all of the tickets up these days, anyway. That's a reasonably nice building, and isn't very far away, and offers a little shelter from the wind.

Huck the Fuskies.

[Mr T]

ACC: I think I'd take Death Valley here, just because I think the atmosphere would probably be a bit more raucous than Doak Campbell.

Bingo!

FSU is a great stadium but it wasnt built for sound and for some reason neither are the fans.

ACC- Death Valley, Clemson.

Big XII- Tough call. TAMU, Texas, OU, or Neb would be good. I guess I would take the Cotton Bowl with OU-Texas playing

Big East- West Virginia because PapaB once coached them

Big Ten- PSU. I would like to see JoePa coach one in his house before he goes.

Pac 10- ASU. Just on hotties alone

SEC- Never been to LSU. But Auburn is just too damn fun during football season.

I've never actually been to a game in Lincoln, but I've heard stories about how they applaud for the other team if they just give a good effort whilst getting thrashed 56-0. If there's any criticism of Husker fans to be found, it's that they're almost too nice.

They applauded FSU in 1980, from what I am told
FSU 18
NEB 14

[MgoBlue-LightSpecial]

Some good calls on Clemson. They'd make my honorable mention list, as well as PSU and A&M. That "white out" game in Happy Valley vs Ohio St was one of the cooler games I've seen on TV. That shit gave me chills. Amazing college football atmosphere.

[Dinsdale]

Pac 10- ASU. Just on hotties alone

As great as it makes for messageboard fodder, is there really any major college campus in the country that isn't boasting more hotties than a human eye can look at in one day?

If that's the criteria, then, as painful as it is to say, Oregon State is the school that's cranked out multiple Playmates of the Year recently.

Sara Jean Underwood is the current PMotY, and Jodi Ann Patterson(Michael Andretti's OL) won it in 2000. For a redneck school, they crank out the hotties. They give new meaning to the name Beavers.

And I won't even get into how only one state has ever swept the Miss America, Miss Jr America, and Mrs America pageants in the same year.


But as far as stadiums go... I haven't been since the remodel, but I've probably actually seen more CFB games in Corvallis than anywhere else. Horrible stadium, which if I'm not mistaken, has the locker rooms remotely located, and there isn't even a tunnel -- the teams just run through the parking lot, between the corners of the bleachers. I doubt OrSU would fix this even if they could, since they have this neat little tradition where that entrance/exit through the stands serves as the opponents running the gauntlet of the Beaverfans spitting on them as they go by. If you're wearing opponent's gear, they'll spit on you, too...or worse. Real class act, those Beaver fans. Last time I was there, they were pretty lax about smuggling booze in, so it does have that going for it.


Edit for pics -- I'll make them links instead of images, in case anyone has that work filter thingy going.

Yeah, I've heard this, but regardless of the cause, the effect still has to be a cool experience. And though it may not be the "loudest," my point was that I dig a 60K stadium is significantly louder than a 100K stadium. And that article excerpt said Autzen's louder than Tiger Stadium? That's hard to believe even based on my zero experience at either place.

Hard to say if they're the most passionate or not. That's a rather subjective criteria

Of course it is. 90% of my post, and assumingly this thread, is/will be subjective material. I'm really only basing this on what I've heard/read/seen from the "masses."

The closest I've been to a SEC game was the Georgia-Michigan State Gator Bowl matchup on 1/1/89

What brought you to that game? Free tickets? Lived in the area?

Of course, my opinion is that ND Stadium is, or at least should be, the mecca of college football.

It's times like this that even the most stubborn We'll-NEVER-Join-A-Conference Notre Dame fan has got to feel a little left out.

No doubt though Terry, ND would be at the TIPPY TOP of my list of Independent school stadiums to visit.

Hell, I'll even give Sam's team some run here. It looks like Bama's crowd will soon have to be thrown back into these discussions. With 92K for a freaking Spring Game, I can't imagine how insane their home games will be versus top SEC teams.

[King Crimson]

Big XII: i've been to Owen Field every home game from 75-88 (thanks Dad), Memorial Stadium in Lincoln twice, Columbia once, and had CU season tix from 98-02. i think Folsom Field is pretty cool. obviously, Norman is the holy land....but Folsom is neat and while it's hardly a fan Mecca, it's pretty awesome on a fall gameday. among the others, i'd choose Kyle for a roadie.

Big Ten: Happy Valley or the Shoe.

SEC: Been to a about 10 games at the alma mater, Vanderbilt Stadium....talk about football insanity. i've never been anywhere that a half empty stadium made as much noise as one a quarter full. knuckleheaded frat boys wear coat and ties to the games. yawn. basketball games were much more fun at Vandy.

LSU would have been my choice before the 03 Sugar Bowl, LSU fan is from a place where civilization didn't "catch on" but bourbon did. I'll go with Bryant-Denny, Roll Tide. maybe KNoxville, but i've had all the Tennessee rednecks with Alan Jackson bleached mullets for a lifetime around Nashville.

Pac 10: won't choose Autzen, so the obvious choice is Strawberry motherfucking Canyon. kidding. UW on the water is the choice.

ACC: either Doak or Clemson. UNC is cool. went to a game at Duke--was sort of fun in a blueblooded we suck sort of way. Much like Vandy but in the forest.

[Danimal]

Unfortunately our crowds tend to be on the old-side and the student section isn't big-enough so it isn't a particularly raucous stadium. Plus there isn't quality tailgating room and a disproportionate number of seats are in the endzone. But the downtown bars are close-by anyway and there is a definite sense of tradition and passion-for-the-game.

I'd love to hit the rowdier stadiums such as Camp Randall and Death Valley, sounds like a great time.

[Terry in Crapchester]

The closest I've been to a SEC game was the Georgia-Michigan State Gator Bowl matchup on 1/1/89

What brought you to that game? Free tickets? Lived in the area?

I lived in the area. I lived in Jacksonville from December '86 - July '90 while I was in the Navy. I was kind of saddened that the game didn't sell out. New Year's fell on a Sunday that year, so most of the really big time bowls were playing on Monday (remember, this was before the BCS). The Gator Bowl was the only bowl game in the country that year played on New Year's Day. It also was Vince Dooley's last game as coach at Georgia, and for me, it was a chance to see Tony Mandarich (what a bust he turned out to be) and Brock Middlebrook play in person (they were freshmen my senior year at ND, and I don't think either one saw the field much that year, at least not early on).

No doubt though Terry, ND would be at the TIPPY TOP of my list of Independent school stadiums to visit.

Considering that our competition in that regard is Army, Navy and Temple . . .

Well, I'll say from experience that the husker fanbase is one of the most polite around. You walk through Lincoln and around campus, wearing your PSU gear, and all you hear is 'Welcome to Lincoln, or 'Good luck tonight'. No trash talk whatsoever, save for the few drunkards every fanbase has.

The atmosphere inside is pretty good, not stellar, imo. It can definitely get quite loud.

[Harvdog]

ACC: Virginia Tech seems like a cool place to see a game. And the fact that lightning hit Corso's rental.
SEC: LSU. Hands down.
Pac-10: I caught a few games at the Coliseum. I also have been to a few at the Rose Bowl. UCLA fans suck. I think that I would like to go to U of O...Autzen
Big Ten: The Shoe. Columbus is a great town.
Big East: Who cares? But, I would probably take Papa John's.
Big XII: I have been to Waco....sucks. Tech....sucks. These are both like High School stadiums that have been enlarged to play in a conference. TAMU is cool. Pyle is just that. Any group that buries a dead dog so they can see the scoreboard is worth going to. I have been to more games in Austin than anywhere. I guess that happens when you have season tickets. The atmosphere is cool. The tailgates and hotties help too.

[War Wagon]

Haven't been to DKR or Faurot. Not sure I'd want to go to either, really.

Oh, really?

Not sure I'd not want you go either, really.

[Degenerate]

I highly recommend Camp Randall for those who have not been. I have been to several games there, including the notorious stampede game against Michigan (13-10 Badger win) and the 13-13 tie against Ohio State in back-to-back weeks in 1993 when I was living in Madison. I have never heard a louder stadium than that Michigan game.

[PSUFAN]

I was at Mountaineer Field in 1984 for PSU's first loss to WVU since 1955 (17-14). That was a flat-out insane environment. I haven't been back since, but I doubt many of their subsequent games have had the same kind of electricity in the air. Nonetheless, I'd recommend that for the Big East representative without a moment's hesitation. A full house is a Big East anomaly - except in Morgantown. Those hicks love their football, and they know how to make some noise.

[MuchoBulls]

A full house is a Big East anomaly - except in Morgantown.

Louisville sells out consistently and they are planning to start their stadium expansion in the very near future. Their stadium siz is currently around the same capacity as WVU's. WVU would still get my Big East vote for the game day experience. I heard from many people who went there last season how good the experience was even after the home fans became quite unruly after our win.

I'll be happy when the day comes when we build our own stadium on campus (a long time away however).

[Terry in Crapchester]

A full house is a Big East anomaly - except in Morgantown.

Syracuse will sell out if the program is going well. Unfortunately for them, that hasn't been the case recently.

I have to say that Army may have the best location in the country for a stadium. Granted the football hasn't been much lately but you can't beat the location.

I didn't mean that to denigrate the others. But the importance of the game is one of the elements -- not the only one, of course, but one of them -- which I would consider in making my selections.

ND has a huge edge over the other independents in that regard.

[SoCalTrjn]

Have been to all of the Pac 10 stadiums, Washigton was my favorite besides the Coliseum. I havent been to the Farm since they redid it, maybe in a couple years

I have been to Arkansas and Auburn for games, both were nice, been to baton Rogue a few times but never for a game, that might be a good time, there or Tennessees stadium if they promise not to play rocky top

Been to FSUs stadium once and the Orange Bowl twice

cant wait to go to Ohio State again, that was the only Big 10 stadium I have been to, Id like to go to Michigan.

In the Big 12 I have only been to Manhattan and Boulder, going to Lincoln this year

I think my favorite away stadium is still Hawaii though, a week there and then an easy game, how can you not like that?

[War Wagon]

Haven't been to DKR or Faurot. Not sure I'd want to go to either, really.

Oh, really?

Not sure I'd not want you go either, really.

Yes, really really.

That's nice that you're not sure whether you'd want me to not go though.

That's 'cause I like and respect you, Froz, or the effort to be nice would've been spared at the veiled insult. Consider it a shot across the bow... really.

You don't see me in here dissing other teams venues, now do you? Why'd you feel the need to go there? You know a Mizzou fuck like me might be lurking, yet you took the shot anyway.

If you ever do attend a game in Columbia, I'll bring the beer and the brats and make you glad you came.

Fair enough?

[WolverineSteve]

Big Ten- Been to most of them. As I've stated here before, Happy Valley hands down, best road trip ever. Great peeps, gracious in defeat.

SEC- Would love to check out LSU. Living in FL, I've often wanted to head to the swamp for Tenn/UF.

BIG12- Toss up. Would like to see Texas, Nebraska, or A&M.

ACC-Been to Tally. Wasn't too impressed. It was vs. ND when the Irish went deep for 6 on practically their first play. Piped in sound is lame. Tons 'o pussy cancels out many short comings.

Pac 10- Been to Pasedena, but only for a couple Rose Bowls. I think Oregon would be my first choice here. Fuck Cal.

ACC-VaTech always looks good on those ESPN Thursday tilts. Clemson, eh, they're not too good too often, so it'd be a roll of the dice.

[Q, West Coast Style]

In my opinion an afteroon game at Autzen in September (or a balmy October day) is the best time and place to watch a (regular season) college football game in the country.

Husky Stadium, is overrated. First of all, it has a track. That's pretty shitty for football. And all the hype about the boats on the water is tired. A bunch of yuppies chasing california rolls with micro brews and Northwest wines on a 6 figure yaht does not make a great college football atmosphere. I'll take November snow flurries at Wazzu's Martin Stadium over that.

[MuchoBulls]

I have to say that Army may have the best location in the country for a stadium. Granted the football hasn't been much lately but you can't beat the location.

I agree 100%

[SunCoastSooner]

I have been to A LOT of stadiums in my short time on the earth.

Place in each conference I want to go...

Big 12 - Iowa State: It's the only one in the conference I haven't been to.

Big 10 - Michigan: The Big House!!!

SEC - Tennessee: I'll get my chance to go to Rocky Top in a few years when our series with Tennessee starts.

ACC - Clemson: Already been to most of the ACC homes but never to Death Valley.

Pac 10 - Arizona State: For the women only....

_______________________________

My Favs that I have been to...

Big 12 - OU is of course #1 to me (and I really do feel we have one of the cathedrals of college football) but outside of my bias I love Kyle Field.

SEC - Bama; The away game in Ttown was the best visiting experience I have ever had at a game. I grew up with a slight affinty for Allbarn but the Bama series wuickly changed that. My ex wife was so disappointed that all the stories she told me did not come to fruition for her on our trip. She was actually mad that the Bama fans treated her so well in her OU garb.

ACC - Virginia; Dear God the women on that campus are HAWT!!!

Pac 10 - Zona - Mike Stoops and Zona college women.

Big 10 - The Shoe is an experience that every college fan should enjoy once!

[SunCoastSooner]

My father was stationed as an instructor at the USMA for a year while I was a kid and it was the nmost beautiful town in the fall that I have EVER been to by far and away. It is absolutly breath taking. West point is a lovely community.

Pac 10- Been to Pasedena, but only for a couple Rose Bowls. I think Oregon would be my first choice here. Fuck Cal.

We're just behind USC in attendance among western programs.

At 70,000 capacity, it's a classic bowl design with great lines of sight. And the setting is quite spectacular indeed:

back again, m2? m2 troll?

Folsom Field is better in the "setting department". and which is it, capacity? or attendance?

next up:

Looks like m2 stumbled across another AOL free trial disk.

[King Crimson]

it's pretty easy now, since it's attendance and not capacity......among the amorphous "western programs"......what is that? so, we know it's less than capacity. sucker.

like taking candy from a glass blower, wind chime maker, or a troll.

i don't yet see an attendance number in any of the posts yet.

[L45B]

Always a good topic this time of year...

Big East: Not a great selection here with a lot of up-and-coming programs just joining the conference, but I'd probably pick Morgantown outta the bunch.

ACC: I always enjoy catching old FSU-Miami games from the 80s/90s on ESPN Classic. I would love to watch this game live one of these years, preferably at Doak Campbell.

Pac-10: Sure wouldn't mind heading up to Seattle this year for tOSU-UW, but I think I'd rather wait until '08 for a trip to the Coliseum.

Big 12: Got to check out DKR in Austin last year and had a fantastic time. A&M's Kyle Field would be my next choice.

SEC: Never seen a game between the hedges (Kentucky doesn't count) and there's just too many choices here. I'll go with Sanford Stadium (UGA) as I'm sure the scenery in Athens ain't all that bad.

Big 10: Been to the Big House & Camp Randall each a few times, so Happy Valley has to be next on the list.

[RadioFan]

Nice thread.

I've only been to Norman, Austin and Lawrence for CFB, but here are the ones I'd like to experience:

Big 10 - The Shoe.

ACC - Death Valley.

Big East - Papa John's

SEC - Rocky Top. Good arguments about Baton Rouge (along with the Richtor scale story, which I don't think anyone has mentioned, yet), but it's been a longstanding wish of mine to attend a UT-Fla. game there. Insane atmosphere.

Pac 10 - Eugene.

Big 12 - Lincoln. The stories about Husker Fan cheering the opposing team are true, at least based on a former co-worker who was a walkon for OU, when they sucked under John Blake. They got blown out 63-0 or something and this guy told me about how gracious Husker Fan was, yelling encouragement and saying stuff like, "Don't worry, you guys will get better and this rivalry will be great, as it should be!" and shit. Awesome.

[King Crimson]

Nebraska fans were not always that gracious in the 70's and 80's when Switzer was beating them. my pops and some of his buddies used to hunt pheasant up in Nebraska and go to the game. and, it wasn't always cups and cakes from NU fan.

[RadioFan]

No doubt. Switzer is Husker Fan's nemisis.

However, OU Fan and NU Fan always have the "Game of the Century." I've wondered, had that game been played in Lincoln, if it still would be. Doubtful.

[MuchoBulls]

ACC - FSU
Big 10 - Penn State
Big XII - Oklahoma
PAC 10 - UCLA
SEC - LSU

[SoCalTrjn]

ACC- Clemson, just to see the Tigers enter down that hill from the stands

Big East-

Big 10- Michigan, been to Ohio State

Big 12- only been to CU and KSU, going to Lincoln this year

Pac- been to all of the stadiums, but not to Stanford since the renovations, will have to see their new digs

SEC- Ole Miss, wanna see how Coach O is doing down there and I understand that Mississippi has the best looking women in the south

[RadioFan]

going to Lincoln this year

Here's to hoping I was wrong about Husker Fan and he beats the fuck out of you.
