I gotta tell ya, that's what the muggy air and the elements do to buildings in Florida. Rots them real quick, especially the brick/concrete ones. That's why you see lots of wooden homes down here. Easier to pressure wash & maintain.

I would agree it's not the best stadium, but that article could at least show a recent picture

Yeah, he’s talking about aesthetics then showing photos of some stadiums 5+ years ago…

Yall haters can suck it I like our stadium. The seats are close to the field and when they did the expansion they decreased seating instead of increasing it to give us all more room.

Oklahoma's stadium is the most boring major stadium in the United States of America.
But it has real bling, like national championship, conference championship, and heisman trophies.



I'm sure aTm has a gold encrusted trophy room, but with next to nothing in it

Funny. The OU stadium and atmosphere is about 10x better than what Texas has. Far closer to the SEC experience than Texas will be. What an idiot.

The game has to be close for the crowd to be engaged, that's why you wouldn't know.

5 seconds of google is hard work, yup.

But yes, the front looks much better, like the best of 80's era small town malls

Bricks and concrete are not prone to rotting.

Not too bad. But Davis Wade is better than 15.

BHG is a good stadium. In fact, I like the Florida campus in general. The Swamp looks small from University Drive, but once you turn onto campus its scale becomes apparent. Heisman statues out front and all.

OUs stadium while not as big as Bama is probably a better overall stadium Imo.

Anyone else think "The Swamp" is overrated? I remember going to a game there once, and it really didn't compare to my experiences in Bryant Denny or Jordan Hare

Everyone's experience is going to depend on the game they attended. I've been to some games in other stadiums I've seen listed here for being among their stadiums loudest ('05 UF/Bama, '07 UF/LSU, '06 UF/AUB). For a big game, I would put The Swamp up against any of them especially for sustained noise.

Admittedly the aesthetics of our stadium has never been great. Would like to see it addressed in the next round of renovations.
