do let me know exactly which high school this resembles cuz that's one hell of a high school:
Well, compared to LSU, Arkansas, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Auburn, Florida.....it is a high school stadium.

That's my exact thought.
Faurot Field capacity - over 70,000
Vandy's capacity - about 40,000
Yeah, that's really comparable.

I'm so glad Auburn only has to play there once every 12 years.

Mizzou #79
This is the first SEC stadium on the list, and they are a newcomer to the conference. Faurot Field houses 68,349 people and has been around forever, originally opening up in 1926. Everything here is just average when it comes to the food and atmosphere. It will likely be a relatively easy road trip for a lot of SEC teams compared to what some of the other stadiums in the conference have to offer.

But not compared to yours. I went to Ole Miss in 2007 and had a great time but I will take our stadium over yours every single day of the week. Over Vandy's as well which is the only other SEC stadium I've been to. I've also been to Kyle Field and while its loud and vertically constructed its also aging and run down in some respects.

Confession - I am Columbia, MO born and raised and a diehard Tiger fan my whole life but I went to school at Vandy. I know both stadiums intimately. There is literally nothing at all similar about them that I can think of. Nothing. At all.

Ole Miss actually made the Top 25 at #25, Kyle Field #19, Vandy at #65, Kentucky at #70, Miss State at #78 and Mizzou at #79.

Vanderbilt
Add in the grass area to Vandy and we have the same stadium.

The layout is similar. Mizzou just larger. But it is similar with both not having anything that just pops out. Not much to see in both.

I just dont follow what a fan of a school with a stadium that's weaker than Mizzou's is doing hanging out in a troll thread bashing Mizzou's stadium. Seems you'd either be better than that or at least humble enough about your own stadium to know better than to wade in. The original Arky poster isn't even worth talking to any further in my opinion but you seem better than that. Besides, I had a blast at Ole Miss and even though the stadium wasn't the best I still had a great time. I have also had countless great times in Columbia. We are working on improving it but in the meantime, we are just gonna watch games and have fun. So who GIVES A shite really, other than Arky fans with growing paranoia/complexes about the Mizzou and ATM additions to the league taking away some of their own cache and recruiting power. That's what its really all about from the Arky side, don't be fooled.
