In my experience from best to worst:

1. Texas A&M (2017): Extremely hospitable. Great fanbase there in College Station.
2. Auburn (2010): Great group of people. Had multiple invites to different tailgates there.
3. LSU (2012): The most fun road trip so far. Their fans love to talk trash, but they are a blast to party with.
4. Vanderbilt (2023): Fans were invisible.
5. Kentucky (2016): Fans were focused more on basketball.
6. Alabama (2009): We weren't treated poorly in Tuscaloosa but were more or less ignored. Fanbase just seemed slightly arrogant.
7. Tennessee (5x): Probably ran into a few Tennessee alters in Knoxville.
8. Ole Miss (2018): No idea why, but your fans were complete dickheads to our group in 2018.
9. Georgia (6x): The alumni are great, but the sidewalk contingent in Athens are awful. Confrontational before, during, and after games.

And for good measure,
South Carolina: I've seen our students be complete assholes to visiting fans. So, we're probably not better than most.

Have yet to visit Mizzou, Florida, Arkansas, or Miss State so can't comment.

The same could likely be said for any school anywhere as an isolated incident. There are drunk students and sidewalkers everywhere. Just a matter of whether you run into them or not.

Will second the Aggie post commenting that Colorado was historically a rough place for visiting fans. Not anymore.

Agreed. We went in 2010 when your QB actually played sober and y’all beat us. We were taunted, our banner where our motorhome was parked was torn down. Taunted on the bus back to our car to the point my response was, “What part of you won don’t you get?”

When we win, we do our “Rammer, Jammer” and leave
Our fans do sulk leaving when we lose, but that isn’t often, so there’s that.
