Thanks. Yes, I’ve been a college football enthusiast my entire life so my understanding of the venues is as good as it can be from afar. Now that SEC is going to be home I can’t wait to actually take them in in person.

Answers are pretty much what I thought they would be. DKR atmosphere seems to mirror Neyland and/or Bryant Denny based off of these descriptions.

Neyland is hard for a lot of people because Tennessee has been down for so long. When they are good and playing a big game that place is deafening. It's just only happened a few times in the last decade plus (Oklahoma a few years ago, Florida a few years ago).

Alabama can be loud for big games but the older fanbase combined with a stadium structure just not built for massive sound definitely makes it less of a noise cauldron than Auburn or LSU.

But all the road trips are great and folks love to have visitors, especially new OOC or new conference opponents.

Not really. Death Valley is the only stadium that can rival Neyland when the Vols are actually good. OU fans got to experience what Neyland had to offer in ‘15.

But a trash team is never going to have an enthusiastic crowd so there’s a lot of receny bias here hurting Neyland.
