As compared to that shithole you guys call a stadium in Arkansas! Lmao


That stadium was ROCKING during the shorthorns beatdown Saturday.

And, assuming some bias, I've always thought RRS is one of the cooler stadiums in the SEC. Not the biggest, but not cookie cutter, either. I like it.

Our OM stadium experience kinda sucks because of the fans don’t get wild, older fans gripe at younger fans for standing up and just their general affect is privileged and our traditions were ill conceived going forward and had to be cancelled. That said I have seen it be very good when Bama or LSU is in town.

Vandy’s is just awful.

State’s I have seen is more raucous but I have seen it not even with us in town. Cowbells can be rough on your sanity.

Never been to Missouri but I have seen it look pretty decent on TV.

It does. No real unity or identity besides "Hotty Toddy" or "1st down Ole Miss". Very Blah. Everything else about a game day weekend is a ton of fun and the games themselves are enjoyable to watch.

LSU and Florida were the two best crowds I've seen in away stadiums visited.

Congratulations on having the best statue.


Game day experience (stadium)for me would be Ole Miss. Feels like a HS game.

I also pass up State games when on TV due to the annoying cowbell noise. I typically try to watch as many SEC games as possible.

As far as Kyle Field goes. The north endzone was built in the 90s. Everything else is new and state of the art. There are 3 jumbotron/screens.

Spence Park (tailgating) is getting a completely new makeover. As of now its one big construction site.

Continuing on with outside the stadium is the hotel directly across Kyle field (on campus) ive heard a room can be had on game days for just $10,000

I like the old school stadium experience. IMO that is college football.


Yeah, but I don't like pissing in a trough. When I had to do that at Neyland, it was the first time since Legion Field circa 1970. I have a hard time performing with an audience.

Just make a lot of gross old man noises, look at the wall and relax. Or you can wait to go in the nuked shitters like you have to blow mud.

Athens is the best hands down. Many others are good or good + but hard to beat Athens for all around game day excellence. Makes me a little sad to admit though.

You left out the best part.

Simple solution, just become a State fan and acquire a cowbell and start ringing it.



Simple solution: jump out to a lead and kick their asses. You never hear them.

Everyone shits on Starkville. Ive never been but I suspect it's actually fun down there on Gameday.



One of the best things about going to a Bama game in Starkville is that you can be back to Birmingham in less than half the time that it takes to get back from Tuscaloosa after a game.

Vanderbilt is the obvious choice for dead last.

There really is no way Mizzou is worse. Vanderbilt's stadium is arse.

Not gonna lie Faurot is not a very good experience as a fan overall. I have seen the place electirc but only when the team is good and with a good opponent. Thinking Nebraska 2003, OU 2010 and some SEC teams like Florida and A&M have heard it rocking. Problem is stadium design lets noise out and the fact the fans are highly inconsistant.
