LSU stands are pretty dark but the field is well lit...that's pretty neat....gives the crowd more focus and more of a night game field. Never noticed that about death valley before.

UT looks like a bad lawn over run with weeds. The idea is great but the outcome is less than impressive....

I love the north side exterior of Tiger Stadium, with the arches:



But I cannot stand the west side exterior:

My favorite one from OP (that isn't LSU) has to be Georgia's. Looks real clean.

Agreed. Those arches are classic. West looks like doo doo.

Yep. If/when they do that, I think lots of Auburn fans would be happy to leave it be for a while.

These pictures have made me realize that straight line ramps going up to the upper decks are so much more aesthetically pleasing than circular ramps.

I agree, but also why not just put up some kind of facade. If you look at the far right its a square ramp and the far left are stairs and escalators.

Mizzou looks surprisingly good from air. I absolutely hate the sight lines on tv though.


Totally agree. It is so painful to watch a game on TV at Missouri. Why can't they get a higher TV angle. It's just awful.

As a Bama fan and alum, I think Auburn has really beautiful hedges and sidelines. I wonder if the angle of the Jordan Hare stands is as sharp as it seems. Seems like it could be one of the tallest stadiums in the nation.

I also think it is really cool to see stadiums on game day packed with the school colors, and certain sections containing only one color, and other sections, the complementary school color.

For some reason, it has never been tried at Bama. Not sure why, but I have noticed that our fans are not as color loyal as other fans. Frat boys and ex frat alumni in particular seem to intentionally too often NOT wear crimson or White, and so many of the women wear the houndstooth, or pink. I suspect some of the ex frat guys are trying to avoid looking like sidewalk alumni.

I mean when I was there we all wore sport coats and ties and the girls wore sundresses, as they'd done for 50+ years before that. It was about as traditional as tradition gets. If you saw that on TV you knew you were watching a game somewhere in the South, probably Alabama or Auburn.

By the time I left and certainly now a lot more kids where polo shirts (and that was 2009ish).

It looks like one endzone got blown up and they just replaced it with bleachers and plywood.

In fairness, why was UK's taken so far away while the rest were closer?

Right, but I am talking about the ex frat alumni who came back for games. I have gone to games with one of these guys, and he too would wear slacks and a non Crimson and non White shirt.

I love the way BDS looks inside, and from above, but the south end zone exterior is far superior than the north one. The south side matches the campus architecture, but the north side just doesn't. Disappointing. Mal Moore's only mistake.
