My favorite for overall experience is the Superdome. I absolutely love going to a game w/in walking distance of one of the best entertainment districts in the world.
As far as the facility itself, I thought U of Phoenix stadium in Arizona was pretty badass.
For college sports the Rose Bowl is a beautiful setting, but kind of in the middle of nowhere.
And finally, if we are limiting it to on-campus college football the best non-SEC venue I have been to is Clemson's Memorial Coliseum. I enjoyed being on campus, going to a game, then walking to bars afterwards.

At one point, they held the sound record for crowd noise. This was as recently as 2010 IIRC. Their stadium was designed for optimum acoustics.

a stadium is only as good as the team playing in it is what my diddy's diddy told his son and his son passed on to me.

eh i'm skeptical on that. I would think Miss State holds it given they cheat. lol
I wouldn't mind going to a Miss State game to see the cowbell thing in real time. and so i can say i have been to Stark vegas. lol

Rosenblatt would come in at a very close 2nd place

Easy answer, Cal Memorial Stadium. Bay area on one side and hills on the other.

I have been to a few games in Corvallis due to my uncle being a professor there. It's a beautiful town and pretty fun. Stadium is nice after the renovations they just completed.

You better pray it hasn't been raining. A few years when prices for the decent spaces went astronomical, the rest of the spaces became one big mudhole.
Try walking 1-2 miles in the mud.

Also you just found the worst picture of Oregon State's stadium that you could find and posted it.
It's a nice stadium, yes its on the small side but I've loved it every time I have visited.

Jerry's world is pretty cool to watch a game.
The screen is too big but other than that it's a plus.

The Rose Bowl. Never forget getting to the stadium, the classic sign on the south end zone, walking in the stadium was surreal. Doesn't look nearly as old as it is. Beautiful weather, great setting in the San Gabriels, 100K people at the grand ole stadium is something to see.

Prettiest location I've been to would be a toss-up between Washington and Colorado and the Rose Bowl.
Best game experience hands down would be Camp Randall. Been to a lot of CFB games and it's the only one that compares with SEC football atmosphere. Place is insane, tailgating rivals the best.
