Beaver Stadium my arse...I have been to that stadium. It is a giant erector set. That place is absolutely hideous.

Harvard Memorial Stadium: The reason football in the US is still played on a 160 feet wide field is due to Memorial Stadium. The Teddy Roosevelt led commission to reform football recommended a much wider field. Harvard just completed Memorial Stadium and they said no and that was the end of that.

Michie Stadium at West Point: Dramatic setting both the campus and in the Hudson Valley.

Clemson Stadium to me is nondescript except for Howard’s Rock.

The only one I’ve been in is Husky Stadium (Seattle). It’s a pretty scene, right by Lake Washington, and the Fall colors here are spectacular. Too bad the politics sucks.

I have seen The Swamp. I am was so surprised at the relatively small footprint of that place. It is right on campus at a corner.

Notables not making the list:

LA Memorial Coliseum, Autzen, Folsom Field, Camp Randall, and UGA Sanford Stadium.

The Big House in AA is #1 and the only reason it’s #2 on this list with the Rose Bowl as #1 is due to PC...GO BLUE!

[Howie66]

CAMP RANDALL Stadium should be on this list.

I've heard Tennessee's stadium is pretty awesome..

I've been to OK's stadium...and it is great.

[redgolum]

Biased, but Memorial Stadium in Nebraska is great

I’ve been to 15 Rose Bowl games. USC was in 12 of them and won nine. Of the other three, UCLA beat Ohio State, Michigan beat Washington and Ohio State beat Arizona State.

They didn’t mention Yale Bowl!

This is just not an authoritative piece.

I used to work with a former Miami Dolphins and University of Miami fan who said their former success had much to do with the old Orange Bowl.

He said he stopped being a fan of the Dolphins when they left the Orange Bowl and he stopped being a Hurricanes fan when they left the Orange Bowl.

In 1969, I watched the Occidental College Tigers play the Cal Tech Beavers at Tournament Park in Pasadena, where the Tournament of Roses game was played before the Rose Bowl was built. It was still a good stadium, and I believe it is still in use today. Oxy beat Cal Tech 45-21, but the fact that the Tigers gave up 21 points to the Beavers, a perennial doormat, was a bad sign. If I remember correctly, that game was Oxy’s sole and only win that season.

I attended a few games at old Lewis Field. We sat on aluminum benches and I didn’t even think about the stadium. I mean there was a place for everyone to sit and you could see the game.

Now that some old oil guy gave them millions and trillions and billions of dollars, they must have a nice stadium now.

Another great stadium is Memorial Stadium in Berkeley, Calif. It is located in a canyon in the Berkeley Hills behind the University of California and from the top, one has a spectacular view of the campus and San Francisco Bay. If you don’t want to buy a ticket, you can hike up to Tightwad Hill, a slope high over the stadium, and watch the game for free.

I was shocked when I saw that the Rose Bowl really was lower down.

The 2nd Death Valley is at LSU. Ours took the name at least 2 decades before LSU.
