Pretty good list. UGA and Bama are very similar in terms of game day. LSU definitely deserves to be number one. Those are the only three that stand out in the SEC imo. The only stadium on the list I haven't been to (SEC and Clemson), is A&M.

I can go with LSU at #1 especially if it's a night game. But, the Grove being left off the list is a clear indication the author don't know jack bout football.

When were ranked, and playing an sec team, we sell out. I'm not talking about western Kentucky or ULL at noon in September.

I can't believe A&M's Blue Bell didn't make it with all the kickass bubbles and junk.
Inside VH is decent but nothing great. The Grove is cool the first time you go, but the novelty of the chandeliers and china goes away pretty fast, IMO. How can the atmosphere be considered great when you can't even cook anything?

Sorry but lol at Florida #9. I've seen games when they were highly ranked 3/4 full at best in some noon kickoffs.
Seems legit.
You realize the only school who wants night games is LSU.
That's our tradition.

I think most fans prefer night games, no?

Clemson in the top 10 makes no sense
looks more like the least attended 25 seconds in college football. taters tend show up for FSU & the (3 so far) Gameday/ESPN games. the Gamecocks fill it up Thanksgiving weekend in even-numbered years. Georgia 2013 was Haley's Comet for them so yeah they weren't missing that. otherwise, well, not really.
pretty sure they are the only school that gives both official attendance & handshakes in even 100's.
"By spending stamped $2 bills with abandon, many of the 10,000 or so Clemson fans headed to Florida believe they will make a statement about Tiger pride." - the City of Miami thanks you for $20,000 in a useless as tits on a boar denomination of currency.
Article - wooo hooo for tradition!
"A tradition was born. Now, collecting stamped $2 bills to take on the road is a ritualized part of preparing for important away games. “It’s just our way of leaving Clemson paw prints all around whatever bowl city we’re visiting,” said Kirby Player, 50, a Clemson doctoral student who actively dates within the college of agriculture, forestry and life sciences.
This year, he cannot be at the game, so he gave some stamped bills to his niece, who is heading to Florida. He also gave some as Christmas gifts, a tradition among many serious Clemson fans. He figures he spent $100." - now that's something alright.

Muschamp. Same thing that had Arkansas fixated on Auburn for so long. Florida = Arkansas

No prob with the list... Have you ever been to a game at Clemson?? Outstanding atmosphere, awesome tailgating, rabid fanbase, nice campus, hot chicks, 80,000+ at every game...
Yes and I wasn't that impressed the two games I've gone to. Mind you, it's not a bad experience, I'd go again. I think it is an SEC-lite experience, and while I wouldn't argue with it being ranked fairly highly, I think it should be behind all of the notorious SEC tailgating schools.
