    I realize it's difficult to rank so many stadiums when no one can possibly see them all in person in a timely manner. That said, this ranking seemed to weigh factors beyond the stadium more than the stadium itself. Fan support, location, program notoriety, all seemed to be given equal or even greater value than the stadium design itself. You literally can predict the top 5 without watching the video.

    "weird grassy area" -- Some guy who's never sat on the grass hill with the students at any college game. Also, #8 on the list has a grassy area which doesn't get mentioned, but is one of the best places to watch college football period. Anyway, interesting methodology - I wouldn't want to have to rank all these and deal with the fallout from fans. I don't agree that the bigger stadiums necessarily have the best atmospheres or get the loudest. A number of the traditional SEC schools aren't actually the best places to watch football while some of the smaller, "blander" stadiums in the ACC or PAC-12 are better and louder than expected. That said, I've been to a surprising number of these, and almost any of them can be a great place to watch a good game if they are at or close to capacity.

    Cal student here, CMS games where the sun is out and it's over 78 outside (rare) usually makes me not want to go unless we play a relevant team. However, sunset kickoff games are truly immaculate. If you look west from any high point within the stadium, you can see the golden gate bridge, our bell tower, the bay, with the mountains as a backdrop. There's also the Hayward fault line that runs North-South through our stadium so CMS was constructed to allow two halves of the stadium to slide against each other in case of seismic activity. Great video! Subbed :)

    Ok, you criticize many pro football stadiums because they are just bowls with no view from the outside... then you criticize college stadiums for being too open and not connected. College stadiums eapecially grow over time. And many of them have soul. Sit in the East Stands of Lane Stadium in late October and admire the gorgeous scenery of campus against a backdrop of chicago maroon and burnt orange mountainsides... and be there for a night game when Enter Sandman plays. College stadiums are about atmosphere. Lane should be Top 20.

    As someone who lives right in the heart of Hawkeye country, I can agree that Kinnick can be connected a little better. When they completely renovated the north end zone a few years ago, they enclosed it to make that end of the stadium louder. The first time it was really noticeable was when Penn State came to town a couple years ago. They were deep in their own territory in that end of the stadium and got called for three straight false starts because the north end zone is ridiculously loud.
    At some point, maybe in a few years, I could see them trying to do the same to the south end zone to fully enclose the stadium

    SECU Stadium is incredibly unbalanced. But Maryland is very limited with what they can do. Because of where it's located they kind of had to build the pressbox/suite side as a huge vertical wall. The opposite side was added on in the mid 90s when Maryland's basketball team was good and student enrollment grew alot. And the one endzone is Attached to the practice facility which is Cole Field House. Since it's on the National List of Historic Places they can't tear it down and the amount of alterations they can do are limited

    I love Michigan Stadium. It's so symmetrical in its beauty. You are correct it is built into the ground and the reason for that is, before it was built, Michigan played at Ferry Field nearby and the stands collapsed and some people were injured. In order to avoid that in the future Michigan stadium was built into the ground. That design was also chosen to future proof the stadium. It's foundation is designed so that the capacity could be potentially increased to 150,000.

    The L&N stadium (Louisville) should be top 20. It’s all chair back and very Large (NFL almost) really cool amenities, fairly new, night games are awesome. Hard to fill but when it is one of the toughest in the ACC to play behind Clemson. Unitas statue. Just a Sea of crisp Red.

    Team colors plays an underrated role in stadiums. Cause in a packed stadium, the boring colors from fans cause a dull vibe

    Bro. Minnesota’s new diggs look beautiful to me. And different inside. (Buckeyes fan). The Jumbotron open side is very appealing and the suites section in the whole
    Upper side give a nice modern touch.

    Dude needs to check his facts. Says the covers to the grandstands of Husky Stadium were a ripoff from the Seahawks stadium. The first cover to a grandstand was added in 1950. Seahawks weren’t even around then. The other side was covered in 1987, when the Seahawks were playing in a dome. The Seahawks current stadium was completed in 2002. Where did the Seahawks play while it was being built? Husky Stadium. Then, Husky Stadium was renovated in 2013. But grandstands had covers well before then. Get your facts right.

    Illinois' Memorial Stadium is one of the oldest surviving stadiums, built in 1923--it's now 100 years old--and updated since then, but remaining essentially the same over the years. For the record, brick exterior is indeed amazing. There are 1.2 million bricks... The columns are one of the reasons this stadium will never be torn down. There are 200, 186 with the names of the students and alumni who died in WWI, and the concourse where they are is accessible. You can walk among them and read the names and their units. One is named for a nurse who died in the influenza epidemic. There's more history that I won't go into now, but one of the cool things about the stadium is the top of the Assembl;y Hall (NOT the State Farm Center, alumni will tell you).
    There will be more updates as there were, and the football team is in a rebirth now. But if you want to talk about the stadium as it is, you have to look at its history.

    I always loved the University of Wyoming’s stadium for the tall pine trees in one side of the stadium to make it feel like your in a forest mountain environment ..and those iconic gold,white and brown mountains painted in the end zones….and at night the fan crowd energy is amazing and loud most games despite its smallish size.
    It’s high elevation ( highest in college football) is a cool home advantage in my opinion…somewhat intimidating to those lowland teams who aren’t accustomed to the thin Wyoming Mountain air….just ask Missouri and Texas Tech about it ! lol
    I think many of the mountain west stadiums should be included….I love the mountain west vibes they offer a college football fan even though they might not be as big or architecturally impressive.

    The sun devil stadium changed its name to mountain America stadium. Also it’s great for night games because if you sit in the high seats you can see Phoenix and Tempe lit up at night. Also it’s built into a mountain how cool is that. The gold A is right next to it painted on the mountain
