14 best college football stadiums (NFL)

[UTK]

Jordan-Hare and LSU's Death Valley are the most intimidating stadiums I've visited as a rival fan.

Doak Campbell is more annoying than intimidating, in that we usually play like crap in spite of having about 20-25K fans in FSU's house.

Neyland isn't as intimidating as it should be, especially for a stadium that size.

I suppose Neyland and the Swamp suck when both the teams suck. But even 2012 the Swamp was kind of eh...Neyland was going crazy despite a bad team for just almost beating UGA and beating USCjr. Whenever UT starts winning again Neyland will be feared. But until then, it really is whatever.

Considering UF played at Neyland in 2012, The Swamp was kind of meh that night. lol:

Take it from someone who's been attending UF games since the mid 80s, and made their first trip to Neyland around the time you were born. Florida Field used to rock in the 1980s, and we sucked for the latter part of that decade.

The smartphone era has turned our student section soft. Our students were consistently late to home games in 2012 when Muschamp pulled 11 wins out of his a$$.

And don't confuse Neyland being feared because of an intimidating crowd with Neyland being feared because the Vols are title contenders.

Even during UT's 1990s run the crowd wasn't consistently loud. Great atmosphere, but not nearly as loud as 108,000 fans should be.
