Neyland Not on USA Today’s List!

Either USA Today doesn’t know sports, or they don’t like Tennessee.

Ole Miss is #4.
I don't think it is a serious study of stadiums and experiences.

The WASP sorority girls used to be the only attraction down there when I was going to away games in the 90s and early 2000's. I don't know if that is anything special to see there today.

There's no way Vaught-Hemingway is a top 10 stadium.

If you're gauging schools off of the entire gameday experience (surrounding town/city, the campus, tailgating, the "scenery," etc.) then you can make a case for them to be somewhere in the top 10.

LOL, the Oregon stadium holds maybe 60k at best. I've been to a game there and while the atmosphere was great, it was high school compared to Neyland.

Was going to say the same thing. Having them at #2 is laughable.

Recent success/visibility has a lot to do with how Oregon, Ole Miss, and Washington got their number. A few years ago, lists like this were putting Clemson in the top 5. They aren't to be found in the top 10 now.

Oregon and Ole Miss are both laughable. If I’m not even allowed to say Tennessee I can think of several stadiums that are far more impressive than those two. There is no metric whatsoever that puts Ole Miss into a top ten stadium

I didn't believe this because Instagram is often click bait, but here's the weak USA Today piece.

Actual footage of me after seeing Georgia on the list.

USA Today hates us.

USA Today hates us.

Apparently they hate printing anything remotely resembling intelligence.

Smells like Pat Forde.

USA Today, you say?

USA Today has no credibility.

Their opinion doesn’t mean jack sh*t

The writer seemed excited about the upcoming renovations. I think they’ll move us up the list when the trough toilets are gone.

USA Today employs Dan Wolken....nuff said

This is actually Wolken territory. The USA Today “sports page” is mostly done by “journalists” who always appear to be more interested in writing about any topic other than sports.

 

[Just a VolinTears]

Ole Miss. Ha.

Never.... reminds me of my childhood. First game 1969.
