LSU stadium should be the capital of Louisiana.

From a visual look, it's UGA's Sanford Stadium.
From the USAToday just prior to 2018 season....
Sanford Stadium, one of the nation’s most iconic and visual pleasing college venues is about to borrow a design idea from Notre Dame.
Currently undergoing a $63 million expansion, which will move an enhanced locker room to the west end of the stadium, add a new pedestrian plaza and create a recruiting pavilion, Georgia is adding some color and character to the concourses.
During the spring Georgia Athletic Board meeting on Thursday, Associate Athletic Director Josh Brooks presented the upgrades. Brooks borrowed an idea he saw from last season’s game at Notre Dame — repainting the Reed Plaza columns with program covers from each championship year.
“You can really find a program that matches it and now you are really telling the story of the history of Sanford Stadium,” Brooks said. “This is all about warming the stadium up while also selling our rich history and just beautifying the stadium.”
Other upgrades include repainting the concourse areas and recognizing a team from each decade on columns with the matching uniform from that time.
While it's not the largest (92,746), the stadium itself is one of America's most beautiful, ferrrrrr sure!
"Light Up Sanford", a UGA original....now, everybody's copying us. It's okay, imitation's the most sincerest form of flattery.
Now, for the worst looking....
Texas' Darrell K. Royal Stadium....looks just like a high school stadium. I've been there and it's UGLY, poor sightlines.

You're insane if you think Arkansas's stadium is similar to Vaught Hemingway

Let's go ahead and get this out of the way. Shocked nobody has said it yet.

What is wrong with the inside of tiger stadium? It all flows together.
Outside the north and south look good but the west side doesn’t match and east side is terrible.

Arkansas gets the worst because they have to play in Little Rock a couple of games a year. That stadium should be condemned.

LSU isn’t the worst but boy did they frick up the last two major renos/expansions

Auburn - similar to TN outside the stadium. One of the trashiest games I have ever been to, literally the ground was heavily littered and trash cans were overflowing and nasty.
This never happened.

Auburn...the hole was put there for you so we could dump on you every other year.
That is a natural valley where the stadium is built--the sideline seating from one end to the other on both sides are "naturally" built into the sides of the valley.
