LSU looks pretty. I've been there but haven't really toured the campus.

I like College Station because it makes me feel superior.

J/k, I like it because it makes me remember having sex there.

Been to all but UK, Florida, and Missouri, so here are my rankings:

1. Ole Miss - I'm biased but no school puts more effort into its buildings and landscaping than we do.

2. UGA - Really like the way it blends with downtown Athens, some parts of campus could be better but it's still very nice

3. Alabama - Very underrated campus, surrounding areas are eh but it's a very impressive campus

4. Auburn - Honestly could be up there with UGA and Alabama but the entire area just gives me a Starkville vibe for some reason

5. LSU - The stately oaks and broad magnolias are very pretty, as are the lakes, but there are many areas that need work on campus. Do not past Northgates. You will not collect $100. You will get mugged.

6. Vanderbilt - a surprisingly nice green campus situated in the middle of Nashville. It would be higher but it's just not a big campus and has a weird layout with the hospital and other buildings in the area.

7. Arkansas - tFlagship was pretty but I went in 2008 for Houston Nutt's return game and the fans were assholes so that knocked it down a few pegs. Open to giving it another chance.

8. Tennessee - Really wasn't impressed with the campus, but the city of Knoxville was much nicer than I expected. The architecture is suspect at best.

9. A&M - Campus looks like the Quad level on Goldeneye N64, not impressed

10. Schtayte - Poor man's A&M

11. Sakerlina - Thought Columbia and the campus absolutely sucked. Looked like a terrible place to go to school. I know their athletic facilities are off campus and are impressive but they don't count.

Nov 15. Only a couple weeks earlier than the usual Thanksgiving week. Maybe it will be less cold and nasty.

George, thought you'd like to know I overheard some big middleton employee talking about Middleton's future. Said they're going to completely renovate the entire interior, but no plans to make it more aesthetically pleasing. Needless to say I was very disappointed.

Ole Miss is my favorite SEC campus, and it really isn't even close. UGA's is actually overrated. The city of Athens makes UGA badass, not the campus by any means. I like Alabama's too, even though the go overboard with the Greek revival. Arkansas' is very modern and fayetteville is so awesome, but I think 10 years from now Arkansas fans will be wondering why the frick they tried so hard to be modern with their academic buildings. Auburn is very underrated, but the city sucks. Gainesville is a turd, and the campus is pretty average.

ETA: as far as LSU, we probably have the highest ceiling with our unique architecture. However, we are severely lagging behind on renovations but are getting there. 5 years from now I bet we have the best in the SEC
