As an LSU fan, my favorite has been Fayetteville hands down. Incredible college town in every way. So happy our series is now in Fay and out of WMS. The past 2 meetings haven't been anywhere near competitive but I enjoyed my trip immensely.

Nashville is the tits, but for a game I'd say Baton Rouge. Can't beat the tailgating action.

Nashville is great. Agreed.

Baton Rouge for the crazy boozing

Obviously.

I suppose I can just take your word for this.

Oxford for the tailgating

I really like visiting Tuscaloosa. Nice campus. The strip is fun on Friday night. The game day atmosphere is always intense.

I had a really good time in Auburn. On Friday night, we went to a "house" party in the trailer park near campus. It was a fun time. The Tiger Walk and the War Eagle fly-over are also pretty cool to experience.

The layout of the campus is pretty simple to navigate actually. Might just be confusing to someone at first.

In order (excluding Tuscaloosa)

Oxford-great southern town
College Station-coolest fans I've encountered in the SEC
Starkville-See reason for Ole Miss
Nashville-Love Nashville period. Not too big and still has an old school southern feel.

Athens when I was a 20 something-You get older you hate the place.

Auburn would be if it wasn't Auburn

USCe is my absolute favorite road trip but I don't like Columbia so that excludes it. We always stay in Charleston which is maybe the best town in America. Great golf, restaurants, weather, history. We go to the game in Columbia that morning and leave after to go back to Charleston.

UT-Not crazy about K'ville so it excludes it but love going every other year and staying in Pigeon Forge up on the mountain. Absolutely beautiful.

Don't care for any others

Oh, I hate the UGA campus. It's confusing as hell and has a horrible layout- like a cluster of buildings on a hillside. Nothing like Ole Miss, Alabama or LSU.

Athens is a nice town, but has some bad areas too; not that that's exclusive to UGA... every SEC town has some rough patches other than maybe Auburn and Fayetteville


What?? If you find our campus confusing, I feel sorry for you.

Also, yes Athens does have a few rough areas(like EVERY place does) but if you stay in downtown, 5 points, Atl Hwy, and Oconee Connector, you are good to go. All the "bad" areas don't have anything to do in them anyway.

U
Thank God you didn't go to school there because if the campus is confusing
you'd have a far more difficult time with any basic college subject.

And why are you trying to navigate campus buildings on a road trip?
