It’s not just how loud a stadium can get but more how consistently loud/crazy a stadium is.

My rankings of stadiums that I’ve watched Auburn play a game at:
Tied for 1st: Auburn (top 20 matchup) & LSU
2nd: UF
3rd: USCe
4th: Death Valley Lite/Auburn Jr
5th: UTk (when they aren’t shite)
6th: UGA (Sanford is just a giant toilet bowl, makes sense why we play like shite there)
7th: Bama

What’s your rankings/picks?
One of my favorite places to just sit back and watch a football game is WFU’s BB&T Field (Truist Field now). Small, seats are close to the field, and pretty relaxed atmosphere considering all the students leave at half time.

Actually IMO that is to high. Alabama fans expect to win, so most of the older fans just politely cheer, clap and sit back down. Even the student body does not "spin it up" like they should. It has been that way for a LONG time, at least since Coach Bryant's time.

With a stadium as nice as Bryant-Denny I honestly can’t say I blame them.

It's like a morgue in there, but after so much winning, I'm sure the fans are apathetic.

Might just be because y'all had a down year when I was there in 2015, but this is just laughable

Perhaps, but both Hurts' TD to take the lead in the SECCG and Tua's game winner in the NCG, the places were insanely loud. I guess the traveling fans are the loud ones.

That's the excuse when teams lose at Auburn. "That's the toughest place to play in the SEC".

In all honesty, it's as hostile an environment as there is the country. We just don't get up for State one way or another. Come to a UGA night game.....or a bama game any day of the week.

Jordan Hare and Tiger Stadium are top two but I’ve never experienced UF or Georgia road games so my feedback is flawed. The 1989 Iron Bowl when Reggie Slack completed that long pass on AU’s first possession that was the loudest I’ve ever heard any stadium get. Auburn was not losing that first Iron Bowl ever in Jordan Hare. Y’all just were not having it. Bama fans are old, entitled, sit on our hands, portly, and not hostile unless it’s really critical shite going on.

Freakin old folks (not all old folks) who don't want people to stand up in front of them or yell in their ears.

Sooooo your criteria is not just peak loudness but more of a consistency thing, yet cite Auburn with the qualifier of a top 20 matchup lol.

Sorry to break it to you, but all of the big 6 get the same level of loud for elite tier matchups.
