    Sweet the only stadiums Ive been to are the two "toughest." My first was Neyland and second was Tiger Stadium, so I guess it doesn't get any better since I've been to the best now, :hihi:

    Of the stadiums on the list I’ve been in Death Valley, Neyland Stadium, the Swamp, Kyle Field and Stanford Stadium.

    I would rank the Swamp ahead of Neyland.

    I would also have to say that Jordan-Hare should be on the list and it should be above Stanford, maybe even Neyland (if I were making the list).

    Kyle Field is OK, but I would have to add Bryant-Denny to the list and rank it above Kyle Field.

    But that is just one old Tiger’s opinion.

    And a real live tiger. They forgot about the tiger.

    Meh, Neyland didn't strike me as being that intimidating, but it may be different from the field. The Swamp's the closest thing I've seen (on TV) to Death Valley. I'm surprised they didn't put Notre Dame in there, not because they suck to to them, but because the place really is something on game day...at least it was back when Lou was there in the late 80s/early 90s and the teams were legitimately good.

    Kyle Field was completely underwhelming to me. It's nowhere in the same league with a place like Tiger Stadium.

    If a stadium is not closed in on both ends, it should not even be considered for a list like this one.
    JMHO* of course.

    Absolutely! That's what was so rinky-dink about it, and I was there before they even closed in the one endzone.

    I've heard countless things about the atmosphere at Kyle Field and I rarely hear that Bryant Denny is a "must see". What year did you attend a game there? I'm assuming it was LSU-Bama, so that might have made a difference.

    Garbage. I'm not disputing #1 or #2, but to have the horseshoe at #6 behind happy valley and texas A&M is ridiculous...
