2016 NCAA Football Thread

We should start a tour of college campuses, that encompasses traditions, and watering holes....

I always like it when Game Day does a little segment on that stuff, and wish they would spend more time on it, with more detail.

 

My plan is to visit every SEC stadium when UGA is playing there. Might take me a while to really get started, but I'd like to do that at some point.

 

I plan on going to atleast all of the SEC stadiums. This year I'm going to Ole Miss, and Mizzo when UGA plays them.

 

I'm not really interested in Mizzou or Vandy. I've been to BDS, Neyland and UK's. I wouldn't mind attending an aTm game, and LSU, UGA, Florida, maaaaaybe Auburn....but IB tickets are sallllllllty. Tennessee was a great time.

 

The reason I'm going to Mizzo is because my In-laws are all Alumni from there and they are paying for it. So I'm not going to turn that down.

 

I've been to UGA, Vandy, Kentucky, Florida, Bama, Auburn, and USC. Don't care to go to Mizzou, Miss St or Ole Miss. I thought about going to the A&M game this year but mehhh that's a long drive. I'm going to the LSU/Bama game this year though at Tiger stadium for the first time. (That's football commitment to do all that and not even watch you own team).

The Swamp was f'ing disgusting. Sweaty smelly gross rednecks in jorts. Fans were all disrespectful and then had to balls to talk trash after the game they pulled out when almost EVERY Florida fan had left because they thought it was over!! They aren't even true fans....

 

No, you cant. Should be some good BBQ there....

 

I kinda feel like Bama/LSU is reaching a status of OSU/UM for people wanting to watch it. I watch the OSU/UM game, just because of the rivalry. Bama/LSU has been better as of late than the IB.

 

I don't watch the OSU/UM game. That football just bores me for some reason

 

I live in Indiana, so, I suppose that creates a bit of relevance for me.

 

The real Death Valley (LSU) is (slightly-biased here) an amazing stadium. That being said, I personally loved Neyland and hate Bryant-Denny. Also enjoy Jordan Hare. In my own opinion, the scenery outside the stadium and in the city itself makes a difference in the whole atmosphere, and Tuscaloosa is a disgusting town to me. When people say "historic" campus, they just mean "old and run down"

 

That's pretty rough, coming from an LSU fan, considering the entire state of Louisiana is pretty "disgusting". Especially Nawlins.

That just may be my bias kicking in.

 

Haha no I agree! Louisiana is gross, but the LSU Campus is gorgeous and large, so you get yourself away from the nasty lol.

 

I feel like the Alabama campus needs a bit of sprucing up, but for the most part, it is old and "historic" if that's what you wanna call it. The stadium is nice, and clean. I've only been to T-town for game days, so, I was more concerned with not getting into a wreck or hitting a pedestrian than I was with sight seeing.

 

I'm really excited to come see LSU for the first time. I hope it lives up to the earth quake like crowd noise. I'm biased towards Neyland because of the noise, it being right on the river, Vol Navy, passionate fans every single game/year, and the size of the place... I have yet to visit a stadium that just blows you away by the ginormous size like Neyland. I walk by it every day, and every day it amazes me. Yes it's older, but it's give and take. No one has a perfect stadium

 

If you ever get the chance to come see a game at Kyle Field, do so. The atmosphere is indescribable. My man Kirk Herbstreit may not be the sharpest tool in the shed but he was damn right when he says Texas A&M has the best student section in college football. Plus A&M is a safe place to bring the family, no crazies here. We love having guests from other schools. Gotta do the whole experience from Midnight Yell Practice to Northgate Bar District to tailgating to the Corps of Cadets march in to the game and to the post game parties. I've had UT (Texas) people say they love it

 

Neyland Stadium is the greatest place on earth and home of the 2016 college playoff championship team.

 

lol
