OU fans and media that attended the game last year were VERY impressed with the Neyland experience.

Clemson at 2 may be a little to low. Haven't lost a home game since 2013. Swinney has lost only 5 home games iirc

Jordan Hare is a really tough place to play when Auburn gets things rolling. It's loud, intense, and one of the most electric environments in CFB. I'd certainly have them in the top 10 before Vaughn Hemingway.
The Swamp is also pretty intimidating when it's sold out. The seats are so close to the field and feels compact.

I'd like to take this opportunity to inform Ole Miss fans that TCU just scored again.

Sure, I agree, but we are 52-4 (93%) at home since 2008. I mean, obviously a lot of that has to do with the great teams we have had, but we are 46-8 (85%) away from home. I don't think BDS is the scariest stadium in the country, but it's big and loud.
To be fair, I don't really think "home field advantage" is all that different when you are looking at the top 20 or so. I don't think Neyland is that different than Tiger Stadium or Jordan Hare or Bryant Denny for players.

You forgot one:
4. Kyle Field-Texas A&M
Wait, that's just in Texas. Carry on.

We've lost 4 since 2008. We play in the SEC West.

100% agree. Auburn is rowdy when they are good and it is a big game.

But they beat Wake Forest, Boston College, Syracuse, NC State, Maryland and Georgia Tech a lot there so.......must be pretty scary.

Not the toughest, but in terms of stadium atmosphere and noise level, it has increased tremendously over the years. There have been numerous games since the expansion that left my ears ringing.
Now, to go with that, it still is nowhere near the stadium atmosphere that Tiger Stadium has. The crowd is just much more interactive than any other fan base. The Chinese Bandit bowing when LSU gets a stop on 3Rd down is surreal.
