The problem with our campus is that so few of y'all have probably actually seen it because our stadiums (with the exception of basketball - kinda) are all off campus.
Being the 3rd oldest university in the SEC, I suppose the planners of the day didn't anticipate the rise of college athletics when they put the university in the state capital's downtown.
But I did find this picture of the Horseshoe (oldest part of campus) in 1850. Many of these buildings still exist on the Horseshoe.
And the Horseshoe today:

I have been to A&M, LSU, Alabama, Auburn, Ole Miss and Arkansas. Honestly - they are all nice and each is unique. Going to see South Carolina and Miss. State this season. Colorado and Pepperdine are the two nicest non SEC campus I have been to. Next thread.

My top vote goes to Bama but of course I am partial. Other top ones are Ole Miss, LSU, UGA, and I'll even throw Auburn in there.

Nice building just not my style. I prefer the Old South looking campuses.

I enjoy some modern architecture. I especially like things with a "Gotham" feel to them, industrial gothic.
So those are tits, to me.
College campuses should be full of good architecture, old and new, IMO. I don't mind modern buildings, I just really dislike half-arse buildings of any kind.

GT's campus is awesome. An oasis in the city. For those of you that haven't seen it in the last 7 year or so you're really missing all the impressive improvements.
