I have to go with University of Florida.
The stadium has no redeeming qualities.
Some older stadiums lack modern amenities, but they make up for it by being beautiful venues.
The Swamp has the worst of both worlds.
The stadium is old & ugly, lacking in any kind of history or beauty.

I was fairly high up an endzone upper deck and still had a good view

And yet when UF is elite, its one of the toughest stadiums in the country to play.
Respectfully - frick off

Auburns
It honestly seemed like a high school stadium
And their cheerleaders were on the PA system hyping up the crowd. Albeit, this was in 2012 and I believe LSU won 12-10

Death Valley is awesome, don’t get me wrong. But Bryant Denny was louder when I went there. I think the noise at Tiger Stadium is overblown.

1a. Neyland Stadium (Tenn) - Tiny seats, muted atmosphere.
1b. Death Valley (LSU) - Great atmosphere, but the stadium needs a lot of work.

Although not used in a long time Legion Field was a dump.

Notre Dame.
I went there for the first time in 2000 as a young guy right out of college. Chicago was awesome but the stadium itself was not impressive, the fans were pretty listless, and the South Bend is not all that exciting post-game.
I ended up going back several times when living back in Chicago and it never really seemed all that exciting.
I am sure it would have been fine if not for the endless hype train that accompanies that program. I expected a lot more.

I've been to a ton of stadiums but I guess the "most overrated", strictly speaking on reality compared to how it's regarded, would be neyland. The setting by the river is great but I'm talking about just teh stadium itself. For decades its main claim to fame has been its size but when you're inside it's not really overwhelming. Maybe it's different if you sit in the upper deck, idk. But being down low when you look around, it doesn't look any bigger than any ohter large SEC stadium, it just so happens to be an enclosed bowl which is what contrinbutes to the attendance figures. If bama/uga/lsu/au/etc were constructed as a bowl opposed to what they are all of their numbers would skyrocket as well.
And the concourses just seem ancient. BEing able to see all the metal support beams everywhere is not visually appealing.

It is definitely not Duke Slater. You have to be rated before you can be overrated.

Just stadiums, or can we count the Grove? B/c their stadium isn't hyped up, so it was expected to suck. But the Grove was nowhere near what I was expecting. So I vote the Grove.

Obviously you never been to the Swamp, but opinions are like a-holes, everyone has one.
The big house in Ann Arbor. 107,000 fans and you can carry on a conversation without yelling during the game.

Neyland. Sure,the river is nice,but one doesn't need to go to a football game to see a river.

I know they have done renovations since, but Arkansas stadium was underwhelming. Understand why they played 1/3 games in Little Rock (which was the worst stadium ever)
