Stephen Godfrey voted Ole Miss #3. Why is everybody associated with Ole Miss so full of shite? Is the inferiority complex that overwhelming that you can't resist overcompensation?

UGA's stadium is acknowledged as not loud, but is considered beautiful? It's pretty atheistically ugly, really. UGA should be ranked high for gameday experience and it's a decent enough and pretty large stadium, but I just don't get this.



Ugly? The scoreboard with the bridge and campus beyond that is one of the more unique features in the country.

Barrett Sallee ranked Kyle Field 8th and Sanford Stadium 9th. I understand everyone has their own opinions, but putting both of those stadiums behind Williams-Brice and Vaught-Hemingway helps me understand why he works for Bleacher Report.

While I actually like Jordan Hare I will admit I'm not a fan of the outside. It looks pretty scrambled together.



It looks like ranps used in the old days to get materials to the top that were then torn down.

Plus from a top view it's pretty boxy while LSU looks much more oval.

Tennessee and Florida should swap. South Carolina I feel should be higher, but its hard to put them above JH, Neyland, or BDS. Never been to Mizzou, so I couldn't tell you.

How the current Kyle is ranked is going to greatly vary based on the criteria and how they are factored. If it's purely on atmosphere it should be pretty high, but if it's aesthetics and amenities then I can understand why it might be lower. The place looks like shite and smells like bat shite and human urine.

Once the renovation is done we should be tops overall IMO

Ben Hill Griffin is a great venue. The stadium is close to the field, its loud, and the surrounding area is gorgeous. Neyland feels all cramped up and its just like BDS to me in terms of atmosphere. Never consistent in noise level like Death Valley, JH, or Kyle Field.

I don't understand why you think that's silly. The fact we are even ranked highly on these lists the last couple years is based purely off the fan atmosphere because there is no denying Kyle is shitty and outdated. Soon that won't be the case

2012 is the last time I have been. I've been to Neyland a total of 4 times ('04, '06, '08, and '12). I'm not trying to insinuate that Neyland is not a great stadium or isn't a fun fan experience, but in my experience, I've had more fun at Ben Hill Griffin than Neyland.
