My favorite from an overhead and least amount of bad seats (albeit cramped in) would be Tennessee's stadium.
My least favorite is Tamu. Just looks pieced together

Lol, ok. Moron.

Not gonna lie the checkerboard at Neyland from overhead looks pretty awesome.

I think Ole Miss' lost some of its visual appeal to me when they changed to a totally round bowl. Just really boring looking now.

SC and Bama's stadiums look nice as well as Tiger Stadium.
Kyle Field looks like a tackle box

Same shape, but without the finished endzones and better exterior.
It's really not if you've been in either of them. I mean yes both have the same basic lower bowl basic shape, but BDS is much flatter in the lower bowl and wider, and the upper decks are very different.
ETA: But if you're just talking general shape of the lower bowl, the Sanford stadium is about the same as well.

Brice or BHG have always been my favorite "looking" stadiums.

Okay that's pretty good

VHS looks more complete now than it did before... but in all honesty, I'd wish they would just tear it down and start over

It isn't quite as similar as I thought from the pics in the OP.
But not too dissimilar in shape and what not.

I have been to every SEC stadium.. TAMU's is tops... If only they would get female cheerleaders.

Nothing like it. BDS seat angles are more vertical. JHS has a more open upper deck compared to the canyon feel you get from watching a game at BDS. The only thing in common with both stadiums is the exterior is red brick. Makes me wonder what you are looking at.

So basically the lower bowls are the same and that's about it? BDS flows well and the entire exterior is cohesive, JHS has areas that look like an Erector Set from my childhood.

Yep. The interior just needs more of a facelift than anything else (not getting into concessions and stuff like that which is sorely needed.)
We've been clamoring for an update to the exterior for years. Plans were floated around a few years back, but the higher ups didn't want to commit to anything until JJ gave them a full long term plan for the stadium that was more than big screens. He failed miserably at that task, so it was put on the back burner. This was what was proposed to do to the north endzone:

You could do the same with Sanford Stadium and kentucky. Basically they have a semi-oval shaped lower bowl as opposed to a more squared off lower bowl like LSU, UT, TAMU.

Do not think it will ever happen. TV is taken too much revenue from season ticket sales across the board. I look for some downsizing of future stadium renovations across the country.

Not Vaught-Hemingway. It looks cobbled together from 4 different sets of plans. Because it was.
