Auburn has a great pre game and a FIRE fight song . Solid pageantry.

1. Where does Kyle Field rank among venues you’ve seen a CFB game?

It's a great stadium. The views from the concourse in the corners are fantastic. It is the closest thing to an NFL-caliber stadium that we have in the SEC.
quote:

2. Generally speaking, how were you treated by Aggie fans?

Fine. Aggies are weird, but they are good-natured.
quote:

3. For those who’ve visited 3 or more SEC stadiums, rank overall game day experience from best to worst.

I won't count LSU, because that's my team.

Florida has a pretty crappy stadium, but the in-game atmosphere is the best in the SEC I've seen, outside of LSU. It gets loud in there and is incredibly tough for the opposing team. That being said, Florida's pregame stuff is brutally bad.

Auburn is the same as Florida, just not quite as consistently loud. Some of the coolest pregame traditions in the SEC, as well.

Alabama is probably the best in terms of the aesthetics of the stadium, overall atmosphere, views, and decent enough crowd noise.


Texas A&M crowd makes a weird noise. It's more of a "ehhhhh" instead of "ahhhhhh" or "ohhhhh" that you hear when most fan bases are making noise when the opponents are on offense. Like I said, it's weird and makes for a not near as loud sound within the stadium.

Went there in 2012 to welcome aggy into the SEC

1. Average, Not as good as the SWAMP, better than MIAMI, FSU. They made a lot of noise.
2. They were fine, they didn’t bother me, I didn’t bother them. They all said ‘howdy”
3. 4 out of ten. The aggy band only knows 2 songs, PATTON, and the aggy march song. Heard those too many times. The jizz hanky that aggys wave got to be annoying.

1. Better than a lot, but worse than most
2. They did not want us there whenever we attended
3. The pregame shite is way over the top and too much. When playing Texas especially, it really is like a cult and the fans are entirely too easily offended

Most of the people were nice enough. Stadium wasn’t loud. Texas sized corndogs were fantastic. Wasn’t impressed with Johnny.

i've been to every sec stadium except for mizz and scar. i'm at the point where the stadiums are all basically the same, just on different scales. so kyle is as nice as any and on the top end of size

i've met nice people everywhere i went except for fla. never encountered a rude person. met plenty of nice people in college station

now tenn's concourses were atrocious and small but they've worked on that. that was the worst thing i encountered at any stadium.

uga's visitor concourse was surprisingly unremarkable but it's been 6 years since i was there. each time i go back to a stadium, i see improvements.

obviously, vandy's game day experience is at the bottom. ky is above that but not bad by any means. then there's a tier with ark, state, ole miss. after that, the schools are all roughly equal - all unique and all awesome. my favorite sec experience, tenn. second, uga. third, ole miss and ark.

btw, texas was awesome. the fans in the lower bowl stood the entire game, stayed the entire game and cheered as much for their team as any sec team. great atmosphere before and during the game. i wish we played there again. it was fantastic.

washington was also really great. great setting and really good fans. would love to go back up there.

jealous that uga got to go to colorado.

looking forward to nrg. haven't been there yet. been to the jerry multiple times. mbs in atlanta was incredible. the dome for the ncg was really really good. the stadium in orlando isn't anything to write home about but i love that bowl game and downtown orlando is a hidden gem.

Pimp, if you remember Kyle 30 years ago you have very bad memories. Remember Tommy Hodson? Me neither. Cancelled the series a couple years later. Remember?

What ? Hodson was 3-1 against Aggie when I was in school and LSU won two SEC championships when I was a student .

Aggie hangs their hat on beating LSU during the literal worst five year run in our history 91-95, the Curly Hallman years. You didn’t dominate us, ERRYBODY dominated us. It was like beating Vandy now, wgaf. And yet you crow about that when you are 1-8 against us since 2011.

I remember the series was cancelled and Aggie organized around the myth that LSU is afraid of them right through repeated beat downs and 50-7 humiliations. You’d rather nurse your faux outrage from decades ago than win games and championships in the present . Which is what makes you an Aggie. A constant exercise in futility
