Vandy by far. It's basically the Independence Bowl in a better area of a better city.

Haven't been since renovations were completed, but Davis-Wade felt awkward when there was virtually no end zone seating. It was like a giant high school stadium

That’s been complete for 7 or 8 years now.

Ok I was wrong, the cowbells are the second worst sound coming out of that stadium.

If anything, this is a complement regarding our atmosphere. It's always hilarious to me when people talk shite about Cowbells and expect us to be angered by it. I remember having LSU friends come to Starkville for a game against other SEC opponents and you couldn't pry the cowbell from their hands. In my experience, people only hate them when you are playing their team.

Finally having an athletic director that "gets it" is so refreshing.

I doubt anyone cares if you get mad about it, I just dont think anyone but State fans can stand it.

I kinda liked the small stadium and it’s a home game on the road in Nashville for pretty much anyone who visits there.

Nope. Watching any State home game, it's just annoying. It doesn't matter who the opponent is. It just takes away from watching the game due to just it being annoying hearing cowbells ringing throughout. I can see State fans liking it (because, it's what you guys do), but anyone else - it distracts from the game. It could be cowbells, airhorns, vuvuzelas, etc... Just annoying to hear it constantly. Makes your home games unwatchable.

Legion Field on steroids. Fun hearing 100k hillbillies sing Rocky Top but other than that it fricking blows. Worst gameday experience by far in the SEC

I haven't been to Mizzou or Vandy yet.

Kentucky and Ole Miss were clearly the worst to me. At least compared to Alabama, Tennessee, Auburn, LSU, Texas A&M, Georgia.
