Auburn's Arena is probably the best in the SEC.

LINK (for example).

The game against Ole Miss tonight was awesome!

A square court with everyone sitting on top of you is really great architecture in relation to ideal size as far as Basketball arenas go.

Good decision BOT Auburn baws!

Let's do Jordan-Hare next!

You have never been to Rupp if you think that! Rupp is the best in the SEC. I have been to most

Rupp (for Auburn) is this Saturday.

I guess we shall see. Looking forward to it!

Additionally, LSU should be absolutely explosive imo.

I don't understand the conundrum. LSU Basketball is successful and wins over and over.

What gives baws?

You're smoking crack.

At Bud Walton Arena, the fans are equally on top of you. There's just over twice as many people there as there are at Auburn.

Auburn's arena is cute, though.

Rupp is probably the best, but as far as Auburn Arena. It's a great venue for us. Perfect size for our program. Well engineered for a great fan experience, and loud as hell because they put the students in premium seats. We have as good a home court advantage as anyone in basketball.

I’ve had the pleasure of going there. Haven’t been to enough SEC arenas to compare it to, but I agree, it’s nice.

Auburn grad w/ B.S. (4 very long years).

Georgia Tech with Masters Currently.

SEC all the way, though!

I can't help that SEC Schools neglect Engineering to the point that I had to go to an ACC school.

I did what I had to do in relation to the wage.

The SEC is superior in terms of atmosphere(s) and overall Sports, however. That can never be denied.

Arkansas fans rarely show up, though...don't they? Even in major events.

Lol no. I've been to every SEC arena multiple times, except Ole Miss's new one. Arkansas's Bud Walton Arena is by far the loudest and it's not even close. I went to the game against them a few weeks ago and it sounded like a damn jet engine taking off throughout most of the game, until we won of course ;^)

Auburn arena and Thompson-Boling arena are in the next tier.

Rupp is in the next tier. It's only loud a few times a game. Way too many blue hairs setting in the lower deck.

In this particular game?:

Arkansas' Bud Walton sounded like an echo chamber.

Quality over quantity.

LOL. So clever.

Put it this way. If even HALF of the capacity of Bud Walton shows up for a game (it's been sold out most of the year, btw) that's a bigger crowd than the record crowd at Auburn.

You made a silly statement. Auburn's arena is ok. It isn't even close to the best atmosphere in the league.

Now go frick yourself for being dumb.

As far as crowds being a factor I’ve read comments from Kentucky players over the last few years that Arky and Auburn are towards the top of the list. A couple of friends who played for the Cats are adamant that Florida is at the top.

I think Auburn’s arena is pretty widely lauded as being a great facility for multiple factors.

COSAM and Ginn at Auburn.

Be polite. Be Smart. And be very open in the realms of Engineering, and Auburn will be very rewarding. (You will more than likely get a free-ride education worth $75,000).

I started out in Molecular Biology.

Why do you ask?

I’ve heard announcers from CBS,ESPN, and the SEC network say that Auburn is now the best atmosphere for a game in the SEC. I think I will go with their opinion since they attend multiple games at every arena. But hey, you are entitled to yours also.

Simply electric. Like I said, congrats to the Engineers who built that beautiful Arena.

Perfection incarnate.
