re: Ranking SEC Campuses

#1 is right. #2-#12 are very wrong.

1 thing is for sure. Mississippi State has the most beautiful campus in the SEC. Have you seen our grass? Les Miles wouldn't know what to do with himself.

I'm sure so many people on the Rant have been to all 14 campuses and are objective and informed enough to make a decent list....

Too high IMO. That "campus" is ugly as frick.

Interesting list; a good style of trolling you chose. I saw many people ranking Fayetteville vs Knoxville vs Oxford in this thread - I don't remember this thread ranking college towns.. I've toured 7 campuses and have done tons of research on USC, UK, and UF. Here's what I got, I won't rank the non-SEC colleges I've visited

UNC, OU, SMU, Texas


UGA/LSU/Alabama - In their own league..however each have their own style. LSU's initial layout is perfect, the quad/heart of campus could be the prettiest in the south, the trees and lake can't be beat yet some parts of campus need improvement (south campus) but overall a unique campus. U of Alabama is very well put together, enjoyed the visit, very southern and classic. Very consistent and the campus flows great. However I feel i've seen many campuses with similar qualities as Alabama (SMU, UCA). Great but nothing unique. UGA-north campus is great, the hills and architecture fit perfectly however I wish it could of been carried throughout the rest of south campus. Why did they abandon their initial concept throughout the rest of campus? If Athens was closer to my hometown I would of most likely went there. Great school

Auburn- I truthfully was amazed by the campus. Nicer than I expected, constant style throughout campus and everything looks very new and updated. New engineering complex is badass

Ole Miss- very watered down campus. I'm from the delta and live 2-3 hours from Ole Miss. Have been there numerous times. I still see nothing grand in it. It looks like a cheaper version of Alabama's campus. Nothing to be ashamed of but there's no reason to talk it up. Great southern campus

Arkansas- most Hog fans try and incorporate Dickson/Fayetteville into their "campus" however it doesn't work that way. Old Main/Ozark/Mullens are all gorgeous and the hills provide scenery and Old Main lawn has potential for tailgating however there's no consistency throughout campus. Look at JB Hunt C of Academic Excellence for example. Sorority "Row"/Maple is a joke and the new bookstore will look god awful in a few years. Maple Hill is nice though, my brothers living in the corner loft next year

Texas A&M - Not a fan of their campus, I found it depressing. I could see it fitting someone's style however it's a good school and it's doing its job. However it was better than I expected it to be
