Ask Auburn fans what they thought of the Swamp when they played here in 2019.

Ask LSU fans what they thought in 2012 - which to this day is the hottest game I've ever attended.

Ask FSU fans what they thought in 1997.

Ask Alabama fans what they thought just LAST YEAR.

The fact that you have to reference games from 1997 & 2012, and a game that you lost

Again - respectively frick off.



1997?
2012?
A game that you LOST last year?

These are your arguments for Florida & The Swamp. being elite?

There was a game back in 1997, and that game in the swamp last year when we almost beat a top team.

When you are forced to site games from 25 years ago, and games that you lost, pretty much sums up the situation.

Thanks for making my closing argument.

I mean, I’m not going to argue against it. I love Jordan Hare but the exterior has needed serious upgrading for a very long time. The PA used to be laughable and horrible with cheerleaders leading cheers.



JHS needs upgrades, but "high school stadium" from an LSU fan is a little ridiculous considering they're both in need of TLC, decently historic and good environment stadiums.

I think Sanford is lackluster, but it's not bad in any real objective way. It's just neither nicely renovated nor aging gracefully. And everyone loathes the upper deck at UGA.

Clemson is mediocre in every sense but it's also not one I hear anyone ever celebrate.

Appears you forgot about a game in 1997, and that they almost beat a team in the swamp just last year

I know they have done renovations since, but Arkansas stadium was underwhelming. Understand why they played 1/3 games in Little Rock (which was the worst stadium ever)

Correct we have not, but ask Joe Burrow what he thinks of the Swamp and losing to Mullen and Feleipe Franks.



I wonder if he thinks it is a difficult place to play? Probably not since we are not elite.

I tell you what Hawkeye Here, why don't you show up to the first game vs Utah and see how you hold up. Hey you already know how to do the Gator Chomp, or what do they call it in Iowa City, the Vader Clap?

Get the frick out of here with this bullshite.

That's because the fans leave at halftime.

The “Big House” at Michigan. Easily the most disappointing experience I’ve had at a college football game. The stadium, although it holds a lot of people, looks absolutely tiny compared to most SEC stadiums, and the design doesn’t hold noise very well. From street level, it looks about the same size as Vandy’s stadium, but when you walk in, half or more of the seating is below you.

Super lame.

No I don't. But I did because I was talking to the LSU fan and Burrow is his hero.

Why are you here if you know nothing about SEC football?

I know that Florida hasn't been relevant for 15 years.
I know that Florida's performance on the field for the last 15 years has been almost as horrible as their crappy stadium.

The Swamp


I thought it was a good atmosphere. I was there back when Tebow was playing, so we obviously lost. It was one of the louder venues I’ve been to. Outside of Tiger Stadium, maybe the loudest. The most hype the fans got the entire game was for Mr. Two Bits. He was impressive.

I thought South Carolina was overrated, tbh. The stadium was off campus. The music was all piped in. We never heard the band. The crowd was ok.

We woke up at eight, and we thought we overslept, so we rushed to get out to the tailgate. It turns out LSU fans were the only ones out there until around noon.

Besides Northern Iowa fans, has any team's fans said Iowa's stadium was loud?

Florida Field is 10x better than Kinnick Stadium.
