What are some of your favorite buildings on your campus or any SEC campus
The Lyceum built in 1848
Ventress Hall built in 1889 (has an original stained glass window, I can't imagine the value of that)
Rowan Oak, home of William Faulkner, built in 1844, I believe Ole Miss owns it now, there's a trail from campus to the home.

My weed dealer's dorm room was the most iconic on Bama's campus when I was a student.

Honorable Mention: The Stokley Management Center (AKA The Spam Can)
and
The J.C. Hodges Library (which looks like an M.C. Escher painting)

I really like Auburn's old buildings. Are they Richardsonian Romanesque? Or what? Somebody gayer than me tell me the architectural style.
Old Main is Second Empire (French looking, mansard roof).
The old courthouse in Fayetteville is Richardsonian Romanesque.

Could have been...Qbert came out in '82 and the Hodges Library was built in '87.
