UGA and Bama from an LSU fan perspective. Tennessee was very good as well.

I have been to Little Rock, A&M, Bama, and UT

I liked UT setting the most. Bama was second. Little Rock was third (bc I have family), and A&M gets a pass because I went there for a La Tech game.

It is funny hearing Bama fan complain about the repetitiveness of tiger bait. How many times can you collective loop Sweet Home Alabama lol

I've always has a good time in Auburn and Starkville. I know I know they're in the middle of nowhere etc. I know but game days are fun.

yeah plus it was La Tech- I was in the uperdeck endzone- I think pre other upgrades. That drive from Dallas was painful. Also the liquor store wouldn't let me use their restroom. I almost pissed the side of their building, but Texas laws are not to be broken (lesson learned the hardway)

LSU

I'll never forget the first time I saw a game in death valley. Everyone was just hanging out during a timeout without much going on and all of a sudden the jumbotron zooms in on the full moon and the announcer says "It's Saturday night in Death Valley" in an ominous voice. The crowd went absolutely nuts and it was one of the coolest things I've experienced at a football game. It's a completely different animal.

Bama is tame as hell. It gets super loud because of the numbers, but I never felt that intimidated. Baton Rouge has a way of making you feel unwelcome/welcome and safe/unsafe at the same time. They can also go to hell.

Any game at Neyland stadium is amazing. Our teams really get up and never lose there.

I tell you, never go to a game outside of the SEC. I went to a West Virginia and Oklahoma game . Oklahoma stadium hold 85000+ but State's 61000+ blew boomer sooner out of the water.

They just don't love their football like the SEC. They think they do but they don't know how much of everyone's life it is down south.

That's true . out of Kentucky , nobody is that crazy about basketball. If you go to the Northeast, it's all basketball and could care less about football.

The one good thing I'll ever say about Clemson, they have a helluva gameday atmosphere. The whole bus and hill shite is dumb, but they're rowdy.

Of course they only have to get loud for 2-3 games a year

I mean even the traditional powers like USC, OU, Clemson, Ohio State. I have friends at these schools and they get confused why I get so excited about recruiting or that I know who the Defensive Line or Strength coach is. They might go crazy in front of the cameras on game day but I'm telling you, nobody lives and breathes it like the SEC. But we all know that.

ETA: Clemson is not a traditional power but they are credited with having one of the better non-SEC environments so my argument still stands.
