Love UGA's and Ole Miss's campuses. Probably the top two for me. Auburn's is underrated, but I'm totally biased. Alabama has a pretty nice campus. Too bad it's in Tuscaloosa.
I love Tuscaloosa. Great town.

My sister went to Elon. That place is beautiful.

University of Virginia and Virginia Tech have some of the nicest campuses Ive been to outside of the SEC. Charlottesville, VA is a really nice area--surrounded by vineyards, mountains, and southern estates.

Alabama and Ole Miss are very similar. Old South style, heavy Greek presence, etc. I give Bama the edge but of course I am partial.

Mizzou was originally designed and planned after Thomas Jefferson's plans for UVA.
FWIW, it's also a very nice campus. I'm biased though.

I'll plug my own campus in. I go to Central Florida. UCF has an awesome campus. Very modern. It's student population has exploded (largest population in the country now) and so lots of new buildings have been built recently and they're building more. It is not traditional in the least like most of these but I like it a lot. Very centralized and despite being the largest university, it never takes long to get anywhere.

Another interesting fact about the campus that I heard the other day, when the Quad landscaping was refurbished, the person in charge of the project waited a year in between the new sod and having the sidewalks poured. The idea was to see the paths the students tended to take and then lay out the sidewalks accordingly. Or so I was told.

I have simply not been to many of them. But for the ones I have:
Ole Miss Very nice history and grove
LSU Love the on campus lakes and Spanish tiled bldgs
Kentucky Very nice & Lexington absolutely beautiful
Starkville Very tidy and lots of green space
Tennessee The Hill is very nice, but the rest of campus does not integrate very well
Vandy Campus is very nice but most of you have probably never walked it and just consider it an urban waste land. Try walking it sometime.

Ole miss has a nice campus until you turn a corner and see window units hanging out of windows.

Did not know that. Pretty smart though.

And Alabama's historic buildings are great until you walk inside. If my office was in Ten Hoor I would be pissed.
