So yeah--I concur. Tigerdroppings is the closest thing we have to ShaggyBevo.
Td.com is light years better than shaggybevo. They do have some funny posters but this website shits in shaggybevos cereal

Let's be serious. Your stadium looks good from a distance. And it is loud. And you vol vans like to think it is the envy of the SEC. Problem is, it's a dump. The passageways are so narrow they become clogged just trying to get to the restrooms and concessions. There is rust visible on the supports--that Legion Field reference I mentioned.
And most egregiously, the seats are so narrow it is impossible to fit the average SEC sized arse in them. I imagine we could squeeze 120k into Bryant Denny with the same seat dimensions. Bryant Denny is a more polished, attractive, and comfortable stadium in every measure.
But I guess it reflects the current state of our respective programs. Wear it. Roll Tide.

I hate that bama gets all the refs calls, but secretly I'd be ok if we got the iffy ones as well..

Not really. It's just a screen.
But the one at State looks like a 60" Plasma Screen in a shotgun house.

Aaalright! I'm jealous of your jumbotron.
I wish they spent more money on it in BDS. There is plenty of extra space by the current ones in corners.

I'd rather have an upper deck filled with screaming fans in place of a jumbo tron. Oh wait, we already do.
The UT screen is pretty big, I was sitting under it. Kind of awkward, everyone turning around to see it. Bryant Denny's four smallish screens are placed where everyone in the stadium can see them.

You sure about that? There are people sitting up behind them. If they got bigger it could cut them off.
They're fine. Bryant Denny positively sparkles at night. I love it.

I agree with you about Neyland. It is an SEC landmark, but also old and very uncomfortable. That being said, I was at Bryant-Denny for the LSU game last year and it was impossible to sit without embedding my knees in the back of the person in front of me. Most college stadiums are cramped because they don't offer the luxury of bucket seating that professional stadiums do. If you go to a college football game, don't expect the most comfortable experience seating wise.

I had an friend with a skybox for a few years. North end zone. So I got spoiled. Yeah, it can be cramped in BD, but I've never seen it as bad anywhere as it is at UT.

LSU- results, plain and simple.
Alabama- money.
South Carolina- they look like a fun group.

I have to say, I'm not jealous, but am impressed. Not a slap, but their fan base turns out even though they don't have a lot to show for it, historically. They have the historical results of, say, Mississippi State--both have had their moments, both have been to, but not won, the SECCG. But they turn out like Georgia.
Hats off to the diehards.

Auburn: I would say the tailgating. Although Bama has the quad which is pretty nice, Auburn has the huge lots for the RV's.
LSU: Grew up an LSU fan (Parents went there)and all the fans were wild. Remember growing up going to Crawfish Boils and watching/listening to the games when growing up. (Even the blue hairs get wild)
MSU: Not really jealous but where I was sitting at the Bama vs MSU game, I think I spent more time looking at the Jumbo tron than the game since I couldn't see much of the game since I was on the far side.
And most of all I am jealous of all those places where AT$&T cellular service works on game day.
