This is a Penn State University game (one of the schools on this video) they have a home game every year, usually against one of the biggest rivals, that they dub the "white out". Without the broadcaster commentary in this video, you can really hear how electric the atmosphere is. (For context this is a school located in a town called "state college" because its literally what the whole town is built around.)
@jonograhamreacts
Here are what they are ( I’m American and my dad and cousins played FYI , IM FEMALE and have no brothers so I was born & sworn into it )
1. Enter sandman - Virginia Tech ( Blacksburg : Atlantic coast )
2. Chief Osceola - Florida state ( Tallahassee: Atlantic coast )
3. White out - Pennsylvania state university ( happy valley : big 10 ) ( all the students where white )
4. The run down Howard’s rock - Clemson university ( Clemson South Carolina : Atlantic coast confernce , the team runs down a hill at a 45 degree angle after touching Howard’s rock which is a granite stone from my home state of California ; the second one was the spell out of the school C-L-E-M-S-O-N )
5. The house of pain jump around (University of Wisconsin - Madison : big 10 )
6. Go blue banner/ Hail to the victors ( university of Michigan : Ann Arbor : big 10 )
TH-cam and react to : historically black college and university bands
On the Michigan one, that wasn't a flex, that was Kirk Herbstreit, he played QB at Ohio St, Michigan's biggest rival. It is like Australia vs England or England vs South Africa in cricket, or whatever soccer teams have big rivalries. He has played in that game and knows exactly what it feels like.
did it today. Just found you. Awesome content. Big love from Florida, USA!
Nobody has mentioned it yet so I will. These games are usually all day events. We tailgate before the games, which basicly means drinking, cooking and eating food, drinking, playing some lawn/drinking games, catch up with old friends, make new friends, and more drinking. The earliest games start at 11:00 AM, when I was in college we called this the "Eggs and Kegs" tailgates, which started at 6:00 AM. You can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning.
I'm not a big drinker anymore but this sounds awesome,especially the food part.
We also drink before the games! 🍻
Eggs and kegs baby!
All day? At Texas A&M pregame starts Thursday lol
You forgot to mention we were drinking before this. Sorry just wanted to say…..drinking lol. IM WITH YOU!!
The Army-Navy pregame ceremony is a different kind of awe-inspiring. Among other things, the schools conduct a "prisoner of war exchange" so that students attending classes at the rival school can reunite with their fellow soldiers or sailors. All of the students are preparing to serve as commissioned military officers, and everything reflects that reality.
the intimidation factor that the away teams face in these stadiums is unreal. and these are just regular season games, not playoffs or championships. i love hearing you got goosebumps. its the same for me and im not even a fan of any of these teams. if you ever make your way to georgia you must attend a university of georgia game in athens. the entire gameday experience is top notch. and youll be surrounded by 92,000 of your closest friends even though you dont personally know a single one of them!
That's why the visiting team's locker is Pink at the Kinnick Stadium.
as an american living in europe, i do miss this... if you get the chance to catch a rivalry game, that's where you really want to be.
Yeah its alot like the big derby's in Europe. Texas vs OU. Auburn vs Bama. Florida vs Georgia Ohio State vs Michigan. Alll huge rivalry games.
That red river rivalry ain’t no joke! Texas literally chants OU sucks in 1 of their teams songs! But they sing it every game! Heard it vs Tcu this past year and was confused at first😂
I want to fly him out September 16th for WVU vs Pitt, big rivalry and he can eat all he wants at the mountaineer tailgates
Ohio State vs Xichigan 100%
@@mitchconner2021 What would it have been like for him to be at UT/Bama game last year. With the great game, the fireworks at the end, the cigar smoking, storming the field, the removal of the goalpost to the river.
I live 30 min outside of Clemson. The energy the entire city exhibits during Football season is something to behold.
How's the food like at a Clemson tailgating party?
The majority of the fans in college football/sports stadiums mostly graduated from the school or are current students at the school. That is why there is so much passion at college sports events.
Still pretty amazing to me and something I'd love to exp one day.
@@jonograhamreacts Yes! Even though this is accurate, that it's the greater "community" of the given university that brings the fans together, it is also a purposefully open party, including the game. Except while the game is played, then there are clear lines of demarcation. Example: I live in Iowa City, where the University of Iowa is located. We have rivalries every year, and among them, are the University of Wisconsin and the University of Nebraska. When these opposing fans come here, most know how to be good guests and there are many relationship ties, because the states border each other, so we have bunch of Badgers and Cornhuskers come into our tailgate area and do shots with us. This town is literally turned black and gold and sprinkled in the sea of black and gold will be bright red and white colors that obviously stand out.
My point is, although the game is important, it's the coming together of the community and the sharing of the day that keeps people gettinig up at 3:00 AM on game day and driving 2-3 hours to set up in shitty weather for a game that may or may not be exciting or even good. Even teams with losing records in the Big Ten (and SEC) go into every game day ready to rock and roll, at least until kickoff. Whereever you decide to partake in a college game-day experience, you are going to be welcome and some sort of beverage will be pushed into your hand at every tailgate.
@@jonograhamreactsyou should come visit Tennessee for the game vs South Carolina. Tennessee is a really fun team to watch and they just got beat bad by South Carolina last year and this year there will be revenge. I’d love to have you put it you really want to experience a great college gameday!
The second entrance, Florida State, is a sign of respect to the Seminole Tribe of Florida. The real tribe has given Florida State permission to represent them on the football field. The horse's name is Renegade, and his rider is Osceola (ah-see-oh-la). He is named after Chief Osceola, whom led the Seminoles into battle against the Americans during the 19th Century, when they were trying to move Native American people out of the region and to reservations out west. Before every home game, Osceola is dressed in authentic Seminole clothing and face painting. He mounts Renegade and leads the Seminoles into "battle" against the opposing team by planting the flaming spear at midfield.
In my opinion, this is without a doubt the best college tradition in the country.
Well the best college tradition is the wave that Iowa does for the Children's Hospital. But FSU can have the 2nd best tradition.
@@loganleroy8622it’s very sweet, but it’s still a new thing. For it to be a “tradition” it needs more time on it.
@@Crystaldegreef It's been going on for the past 7 seasons. It's a tradition by now.
@@loganleroy8622 It's very sweet and it's becoming a tradition. But many of these traditions like FSU's opening have been going on for decades. I've been watching FSU (I'm actually a UF fan, but keep up with the competition) for over 30 years, the opening ritual has been the same.
I love my Gators but you and Miami have better openings than we do, at least right now.
Just to add.... that last team is University of Michigan. It is the biggest stadium in the United States.... technically, 107k capacity, been filled up to 114,804 as its record; but never had less that 100k people at a game since November 1975. There are 2 larger stadiums in the world, one in India and one in North Korea, but the crowd is insane - I used to live a few blocks from there, and no car could drive down my street because of the people walking to it for at least 3 hours before a game.... And to note, this is a small town with 123k population... but they get 110k filling the stadium 6-7 times each fall to cheer on the team.
Going to a Michigan game is an all-day event!
Watching a game there is on my bucket list. My husband and I live in Alabama and are huge Alabama fans but we want to try to maybe start taking a trip maybe once a season to see a game in beautiful, historic stadiums like that one. It really looks like such a beautiful place to enjoy a game!
@@Traci2000 It don’t look huge from outside because 3/4 of the Stadium is below ground BUT WAIT until you walk through those walkways and see the size INSIDE “THE BIG HOUSE” 😳
@@eloiseharris2014 Going to a Michigan game the best-day event ever!
@@Traci2000 If you ever get the chance I highly recommend it. You Being from Alabama, I'd recommend you try for a non conference game in September, easier tickets to get, and the weather is still very summer-like. A November game in Ann Arbor can be snow covered and in the 20s :)
Nice reaction; we love to see non-Americans react to football, especially college football.
You mentioned being amazed at the size of the crowds. The stadiums in this video have capacities of 60,000+ - 100,000+ people, and they are packed like this for every home game. The last stadium shown (Michigan Stadium, aka The Big House) is the largest stadium in the U.S. and the third largest in the world.
I definitely have to come and experience it just once in my life, the atmosphere must me insane.
@@jonograhamreacts Make sure you get your tickets as far in advance as you can.
It's an Fall thing, so the weather will be good and if you're in the right place, the autumn leaves will be worth half the trip
I mentioned this in my own comment, but something to add... the crowd at Michigan Stadium has not dropped below 100k (in a town with an official population of about 123k today) since 11/75. I used to live a few blocks away, and on a game Saturday, I could see a van with a police escort driving the refs to the stadium, but other than that, it was an impassable road with people walking to the stadium for at least 3 hours before kick-off... the scale is just kind of nuts.
The best tradition in college football is The Wave at Iowa. The entire stadium, including the fans, players on both teams, refs, everyone, stop what they are doing and wave to the kids in the children hospital that overlooks the stadium. You should definitely watch it.
you should delete this lie
@@greenwave819 Sure thing, coach.
Yeah. Went to an Iowa game once. It was incredible
Make sure you arrange for tickets before you go! Some times it is hard to obtain them.
We have six teams that AVERAGE over 100,000 fans. Michigan has a 5 year average of 110,600 fans per game, with the top 3 being where it gets REALLY cold. Can you imagine watching Rugby when it was 5°F or colder? Happens a lot in the northern states.
too bad they can't beat any teams from the south
That’s -15c for those who may not be in the states.
The first video you saw was the Virginia Tech Hokies. It's the school I attended. They also have a military academy which is why you see people in blue uniforms. Before entering the stadium, each player touch a blarney stone at the top of the entrance to the stadium for luck.
I read somewhere that when they jump it sets off earthquake sensors in the surrounding areas.
I'm a big Virginia tech fan I've that entrance live it's crazy
College football in the US was a big deal long before the game had professional teams. Some school rivalries date back to the late 1800s.
Glad to see my hometown team Clemson, All the games are hyped as this. get here early traffic is packed. people come from all over the states to watch these games.
I go to all the games at Death Valley
As has been pointed out, these are some of the largest college stadiums. Michigan & Penn State each seat well over 100,000 people.......and are sold out for every game regardless of how well the team is doing that season. Not only that, but THOUSANDS of fans show up to the stadium just to tailgate knowing full well they won't get in. :) One thing that never comes across in these videos is that when the crowd cheers, or the lion roars, at Penn State's stadium you can hear it roll down the valley and then the echo comes back up. AMAZING!!!!
College football is a really old sport in the US so it's had over a hundred years to generate generations of fan support.
Even remembering from the 1980s just the few thousands fans at Indiana State University in the NCAA Div I-AA (now known as FCS) games was remarkable. For these smaller games you could actually sit close enought to see shit happen, like when in the playoffs the opposing team's kick receiver's knee touched the ground at the five yard line... I still remember that from 39 years ago.
If you make it to a college football game, you've got to attend a Texas vs Oklahoma game, played in Dallas, Texas every year during the Texas State Fair. Cotton Bowl Stadium is divided down the middle, 92,000+ half of which are Texas fans, and Oklahoma Fans making up the other half. Noone likes anyone from the other side from the time the fairgrounds open that morning until the game is over.
cute. starting 2024 you'll learn what real rivalries are
There is no experience like seeing major college football in person! You can literally feel the stadium shaking when things are really going nuts!
You missed a great program in Tennessee. Vol Navy shows up on the riverbanks and there is tailgating, sailgating and more. The Vol walk to Neyland is great, and later they enter Shield Watkins field thru the Pride of The Southland Maching Band forming a "Power T" with 100k+ fans going nuts!!!
Go Vols!!! Class of 2022
Collage football in the south is a way of life so if Friday nights because that is when the local high school football team plays
Woo Pig Sooie
Razorbacks
Go Hogs!
Tickets to the biggest games are hard to come by making them pretty expensive but when you're in the states I say the 3 (just my opinion) biggest games of the year are Texas vs Oklahoma, Alabama vs LSU, and Ohio State vs Michigan. The last one being, without a doubt the biggest rivalry in college football. I grew up in Las Vegas and was able to see UNLV (University of Nevada Las Vegas) vs Wisconsin live in 2010. Wisconsin fans took over our home field advantage and were singing Jump Around the entire time.
You gotta experiences The Palmetto Bowl, U of South Carolina and Clemson, or the now infrequent battle of the southland, Georgia and Clemson...
Dude should react to the Brent Musberger full video of Clemson's entrance at Death Valley against UGa.. Yeah I'm a die hard Tigers fan but I still watch it every year.
The Iron Bowl between Bama and Auburn is also pretty insane every year.
It's not Alabama vs LSU, it's Alabama vs Auburn for the big rivalry. Just watch one of the games on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, that's when most of the rivalry games are played.
you do realize Alabams's biggest rival is Tennessee... then Auburn... LSU is a far 3rd
@@greenwave819 Who does Alabama play on rivalry week? I think it's Auburn.
Been to the first two. My son was a coach at Virginia Tech. I played at the second one, Florida State. I think the size of the stadium has almost doubled from my days. In mid December the State Championship in Texas High School football will have 40-60,000 people in the stands. One I couldn’t believe in Houston in the 90’s watching PNG (Port Neches - Groves) with 30,000 fans on their half of the stadium. There are not 30,000 people in the two towns. That’s 15,16,17, and 18 year old’s.
Go Noles…. I just wish that he would have seen/showed Osceola throwing the spear.
thanks for explaining how old high schoolers are lol
On the second one (Florida State). It’s generally not acceptable to use Native American names, chants, likenesses, etc. But they actually have the support of the Seminole Tribe because of the way their traditions are respected. As for the horse, one thing that wasn’t shown was that flaming spear eventually gets planted in the ground at mid field. It’s a bad ass sight, and I live nowhere near Florida.
It is a great site to see Chief Osceola while on Renegade plant the spear. I don't live far from Tallahassee and I am a huge FSU fan and this moment always gives me chills.
That sounds awesome, I would love witness it!
Penn State will forever be the most electrifying college scene i’ve ever been to.
Jump Around at Camp Randall (University of Wisconsin) occurs between the 3rd & 4th quarters of the game...the jumping shakes the stadium & press boxes.
I graduated from Penn State and went to every whiteout I could goth in my undergrad and grad degrees. It is so loud you get a headache before the team even enters the field and you keep on screaming the whole game through the pain. It's insane. Not to mention we have, before, registered on seismographs in Harrisburg PA which is an hour and half drive away.
I grew up in Clemson and worked about a mile from the stadium and you could hear the crowd chanting over the game on the tv in the restaurant.
So glad you enjoyed this! Be sure to tune in to Part 2 which includes Notre Dame Fighting Irish of my home town South Bend iNDIANA. They are one of the nost famous teams in College Football, having won 11 National Championships Go Irish!
University of Michigan's stadium is nicknamed "The Big House and has seating room for almost 108,0000 fans. It sells out every game.
Holy smokes that insane. I cannot comprehend that amount of people.
The reason college football became so large in the US is the size of the country. In many places, especially in the West of the US, the distances between major cities with NFL teams was too large. Most people lived in areas where they simply couldn't make an easy day trip to a major professional ball stadium. But we still love our sports, and every area has a major college or university nearby. So out West, college sports became more popular attendance-wise than pro games, simply because you could make a trip to your local college and back without having to waste vacation time off work or the expense of long-distance travel and lodgings.
Over time, the colleges saw the numbers and had to build larger and larger stadiums to handle the fans, and US College Football took its place alongside professional football for having major crowd followings and needing superstar stadiums.
And here we are today.
You're all backwards. College is where the game was invented. Most major college football teams have been playing since the 1800's when it was "the old game". All of the pre war names are college names. The first big pro name is red grange (galloping ghost). Jim Thorpe maybe but he was also a multiple medalist olympian. This is all on Google. The pros rented college and baseball stadiums until the 60's
you need to be honest. CFB is for the South and the East. no good teams have played in the west... ever
@@greenwave819 he made up quite a bit... like pretty much all of it.
@@greenwave819 The east 🤣🤣🤣🤣have you ever heard of california buddy football is from the west to the south !!! East coast doesn’t have the athleticism the west has warmer weather states produce world class speed !!!!
@@giovannir9947 uhhhh.... like 4 of the last 25 national championship in ncaa have been from outside of the southeast. 1 in the last decade. you got 2 so cals, 2 OSU's all the others are from the old south or Texas and Oklahoma. a solid chunk are just Bama. the game was invented in Canton Ohio and it lives in the southeast now. Los Angeles is the only west coast schools that have even competed.
Ive been to a bunch of Penn State white out games, its hard to describe the energy
So FSU's (Florida State University) mascot is named after a local native American tribe. The reason they can do this and so many other teams have gotten flack for this is because FSU pays them for the licensing of their tribe. Also the person riding the horse is from the tribe and is chosen based on excellent grades.
Edited to add. The Irsish flag was held over Notre Dame's entrance because they are nicknamed The Fighting Irish. They are a Catholic school in the North.
the FSU mascot is not a native American member but a student, and FSU does not pay a licensing fee to the tribe. It's by mutual agreement that FSU is allowed to use the Seminole symbol and image. The Seminole Nation of Florida takes it as a sign of respect that Florida State University has chosen them to represent the school at sporting events.
@@Roland2665 I’m an FSU alum and I know for a fact years ago they made a rule that whoever rides is portrayed as Ocesola has to have some sort of blood roots back to the tribe. Also FSU does profit share with the Seminole Indian tribe of Florida as respect….
Best I've seen live is the Nebraska Tunnel Walk. Gives you goosebumps.
I'm a michigan fan, but Wisonsin and the Hokies have by far the best crowd interactions
Yeah the title is misleading because Wisconsin plays jump around after the 3rd quarter, not during their entrance.
We sing "Mr. Brightside" similarly during the game
Plenty of good places to catch a college game, Texas (Austin, Tx), Georgia (Athens, GA), Alabama (Tuscaloosa, AL) and much more
You missd the best and biggest. Tennessee (Knoxville) Penn State, and Michigan
You missd the best and biggest. Tennessee (Knoxville) Penn State, and Michigan
I remember watching the game from the first clip bc i had nothing better to do. I saw the intro and it gave me chills. They were underdogs on their home turf and came out on top against their rival. These epic entrances are typically between rival schools and are on a prime time tv window. If you want that full effect, find out which prime time rivalry game to watch. Night games are my favorite.
Come to Texas in October .... catch a high school football game on Friday night, a college game on Saturday, and a pro game on Sunday. Come to the games about 3 hours before kick-off so that you can enjoy tailgating (grilling food to eat, drinks, music). We love our football in Texas!!!
Thank You for sharing the video. I enjoyed the football as always but your reaction as well. I prefer college football to professional football. College spirit is huge in the US. I am from the midwest, about 1.5 hours from Chicago. I live in Milwaukee Wisconsin which is known for its beer. So much goes into a day of football. I see it already mentioned the tailgating which shows the spirit held. I live right behind the Milwaukee Brewers (baseball). The Brewers are so loved that even if the game that day is not held here they still tailgate just to listen to the game and party together, cooking out, drining beer and being together. I just wanted to say i have been to Africia twice and loved it (Mambasa, Kenya)
College games are by far more exciting that NFL. Many kids graduating from HS will choose one of these larger colleges just so they can go watch these games every week.
The excitement and joy this game provides is only equaled by its ability to absolutely pulverize your heart.
I started playing rugby after playing American football in college.
I loved playing rugby, and I love your reactions. You do a great job, sir.
I’ve never gone around karate chopping the cat and dog😂😂😂
No matter what game you end up going to, make it a point to figure out where the student section of the stadium is, and get a seat as close to that as possible. That is ALWAYS the rowdiest part of the crowd at any college stadium.
I am biased (Big 10 country here), but I highly recommend a game at one of these 4 stadiums:
Ohio State, Michigan, Iowa, and Penn State
There are other great atmospheres, to be sure, but these are some of the most awesome ones in the country. Ohio State and Michigan are always over 100k fans. Penn State's "Whiteout" game is a sight to behold on TV, so I can just imagine what it's like in person. And Iowa has, by far, the coolest (and most recently developed) tradition in the entirety of college football...
There is a children's hospital that overlooks Kinnick Stadium, and before kickoff, the entire stadium looks and waves at the kids for several seconds.
Imagine the lil 10 is good, then look at the reality of the SEC
You want to talk huge crowds for a college game, Nebraska has sold out every home game since 1962 even though the team hasn't been very successful since the 90s. But if you think that is insane, a few days ago they packed 92,003 paying fans into their football stadium for a volleyball match. That's the largest crowd EVER for a women's sporting event.
August thru January brother every Saturday I think yall will enjoy it greatly, great video brother, much love from the great state of texas
Decades ago me and a friend went to the fiesta bowl in arizona , nebraska cornhuskers vs florida seminoles. It was an amazing experience, especially for a canadian farm boy from the prairies. Highly recommend
5:50 there are very few things that can rival a night game in Happy Valley. The atmosphere is electric during a white out, the only thing missing is the snow.
There are better ones than these too, Iowa waving to the Children's Hospital, South Carolina playing Sandstorm, Michigan fans singing Mr. Brightside, and the list goes on. Great reaction!
I've screenshotted this so I can have a look at those at some point, thank you for the suggestions
@@jonograhamreacts for those ones, there’s a video that has some of the best traditions and college football. And if features, the Iowa wave along with several others.
The Iowa Wave is the classiest coolest thing. Seriously check it out.
GO COCKS!
Iowa waving to the children in the hospital is unmatched!❤️
You had me sold at chicken shut up 🤣 I'm yelling that at my goats. Peace from Stan the Alaskan and just subbed
Liking just for the fact that you did the air drums during 'In the Air Tonight'. I love watching people from other countries that haven't really watched American football seeing how hype college football games are. Try watching videos from championship games. It's insane.
You need to go to a LSU game in Tiger Stadium when they are playing someone like Alabama or Florida it doesn't get any louder than that. Loudest Stadium in college football. Check out some of the videos on it being the loudest
Can you react to some of the games from the last season I would recommend #3 Alabama vs #6 Tennessee, #1 Georgia vs #4 Ohio State, #2 Michigan vs #3 TCU.
yeah man, 100%
College stadiums are always bigger than pros, tells you everything you need to know about how much we love college football ❤
I'm in my mid 40s, but next month I'm going to a Wisconsin game so I can participate in Jump Around. It's been a bucket list experience! There is nothing more exciting, thrilling, exhausting and heartbreaking as college football.
10:38 I grew up in Madison Wisconsin, where this team (University of Wisconsin Badgers) plays and when they started the jump around tradition, they had to stop it briefly so they could call structural engineers in to make sure the stadium could handle it because the entire stadium shakes during jump around.
it's difficult for foreigner's to comprehend, but here in the states we're so used to it that we sometimes take it for granted or don't sit back and marvel at the enormity of the spectacle.
Man how’d they not show Tennessee
Because it's not from 1998? 🤷🏼♂️😁
The University of Texas/Texas A&M rivalry started in 1894. It was one of the biggest spectacles in college football until Texas A&M moved to a different conference group a few years ago. Check out a Texas A&M half-time show. The marching band is about the best in college football and the students/fans traditionally stand throughout the entire game.
The first one is Virginia Tech Hokies and their entrance song is “Enter Sandman” by Metallica. The whole school winds up jumping.
It never makes the lists in these reaction videos because the crowds aren’t the biggest or loudest, but the Army Navy game always gets overlooked. It’s the last game of the regular season, and often the last time many of the players will put on the football uniform.
The cheering at LSU (Louisiana State University) football games has gotten so loud, it's registered on the Richter scale on at least 2 different occasions. 😎 💛🐯📣GEAUX TIGERS!📣🐯💜
holy smokes, that is crazy
Subscribed brother! I loved your reactions! My college is one of the largest in the country with 70k+ students but small in terms of history of football at the University of Central Florida Knights in Orlando, Florida. But we're getting better each year and you should watch one of our games from 2017 UCF vs South Florida! There are many vids out there that teach the basics of American football! Cheers from Orlando!!! #GKCO
Beaver Stadium is the largest structure, easily, within 100 miles of Penn State. I've seen it from a small single engine prop plane, flying into State College. I'll never forget my first day of Freshman year, seeing it at ground level from a block away.
On September 4th, 2021 the first college shown Virginia Tech caused a mini earthquake while jumping and getting hype to the entrance song Enter Sandman. In my opinion that's the most hype anyone has been. I mean it was enough to cause a mini earthquake for goodness sake.
The game that had all the yellow was Michigan University, Wolverines. That's the largest stadium in the US. Enjoyed the video.
"Chicken... Shut Up!" Hahahahaha, I'm dying! Too funny!
Yea just so you know man there is WAY WAY more energy and hype in college sports. Especially football . I'm a Florida Gator fan and I live very close to the university. The Florida Gator vs Georgia Bulldog game is held on neutral ground at the NFL Jacksonville Jaguars stadium and it's the largest tailgating event IN THE WORLD across all sports. It's a full day of wild and crazy times
everyone from overseas always thinks that they want to go to a college football game but the common thread for all of these stadiums is that theyre in the middle of nowhere. clemson sc, state collge pa, ann arbor mi, etc. people travel from a days drive away because theres seldom a decent airport nearby. you have to dedicate an entire weekend to the logistics of going to a game and the cost is immense. the big cities that international tourists want to travel to (new york, la, miami) tend to have less support for their local college teams and less real estate for a giant college stadium.
My ultimate sports weekend to date was a Portland Trailblazers game on Friday, Washington Huskies on Saturday and Seattle Seahawks on Sunday!! 👍
LOL, unless you have been to a big college football game, you ain't living. The atmosphere is literally electric and you can feel it, for real. These stadiums are massive compared to what you all get, and this happens literally 60 times every Saturday during the season as there are over 100 teams.
Also, like Tyler Whitworth said, these are usually "all day" events. The absolute best times money can buy, it's just so much fun. The drinking part can get insane, lol. Oh whoa is me who woke up Sunday morning not remembering Saturday, lol.
Collage sports in general are definitely helped by states like that absolutely love a certain sport like football or basketball but don’t have any professional teams, so college is the only way they can watch a game live
Oklahoma - Texas at the Cotton Bowl. Aka: The Red River Shootout, is the BEST rivalry with an unreal crowd!
Not sure if anyone has mentioned it because 457 comments is a lot to read through but the Penn State White Out game is typically the premier game of the season for Penn State. Usually saved for the game against Ohio State, Michigan, or Michigan State depending on which team they play at home that season and it's only one for one game.
11:10 come on over to Wisconsin I’ll get you to a badger game so you can come join us for this
If it's against Iowa, I will meet up with you! I love Camp Randall and always have fun in Madison!
We are Philadelphia Eagles season ticket holders meaning we have the rights to the same two seats in the stadium for every game every year as long as we own them. Unfortunately, we haven't been to a game in 4 years because we relocated across the country and Covid and some professional responsibilities got in our way from making it to any home games, but we hope to go next year. These are NFL (National Football League) games which are not affiliated with college football. But the games are unreal and we love them. We even have the blue angels do a fly over at the start of some of our games. Can't wait to get back into our routine of attending several games a year.
Wisconsin's 'jump Around" isn't actually an entrance, they do it betweet the 3rd and 4th quarters...very cool though
Games to go to - Texas vs OU (Neutral field at the State fair in Dallas), Alabama vs LSU, Notre Dame vs. USC, Michigan vs Ohio State Georgia vs. Florida (the Worlds Largest Cocktail Party).
Imagine you are from a small town where the stadium holds 10X the population of your hometown and you're 18
Some of the best years of my life were tailgating at University of Iowa games. We basically drank all night and day until the weekend was over. Hayden Fry who was a legendary head coach of the Hawkeyes painted everything in the vistor's locker room pink.
Iowa is trash and painting a visitors locker room pink is 100% evidence of this
University of Tennessee Volunteers has been voted best venue, best entrance, best traditions and best atmosphere in all of college football multiple times. With a storied stadium seating over 102.000 fans and a stadium sitting on the banks of the Tennessee river itself with the VOL NAVY yachts & party boats lined up on the river beside the stadium and hundreds upon hundreds of RV's and cars, vans, trucks, and cars hosting "tailgate parties all around the stadium and campus....the "VOL WALK", "RUNNING THRU THE T", and the huge "Pride of the Southland Marching Band" leading the way, it blows away aall the others you presented in this video!!! By Far too!!!
Loving the reactions! I’ll take you to a game, but it has to be an Ohio State game!!! 🏈❤
sound like a fair deal.
Rivalry games in college have a whole other breed of competitiveness that some say exceeds the pro league/NFL. The marching band and student section give it a more raw and real emotion versus a bunch of adults sipping $15 beers as a social event lol. I’ve been to a Michigan/Michigan State rivalry game and it’s ELECTRIC. Now if one team stinks, it may hurt attendance. Nobody likes a blowout unless it’s your team dominating. But most of those games are the “gotta see” ones.
You should see LSU (Louisiana State) at a night game!! The Tennessee "T" is incredible, too! Btw, I watch every game every week of a specific conference in college football called the SEC (Southeastern Conference) and I still get chills during every opening of every game.
To catch a football game, you need to come in the Fall. It's a Fall into Winter game, so September and by late December or January, there are playoff games.
Yes we love College Football more than pro.
Go Ducks!
Go Beavers! Just kidding, but for Jono's sake, I wanted to show an example of what an Oregon State fan might reply, if they heard a University of Oregon person yell that. As a fan of the rival, you simply could not let that yell sit unanswered, if you heard it.
You have to show up hours before the game to tailgate and have great food and drinks! It's an all day event! It's the best party ever!
North Carolina Tar Heels Nations stadium holds 51,000 high spirited fans and the games are well worth the ticket price. Also, learning the basics of football is easy to learn.
The game, ZEZE you got four downs to get 10 yards to get another first down. On any play, you can score a touchdown which is six points and the extra point kick is one point totaling seven. If you get close enough to the goal post on fourth down you kick a field goal for three points but you can get a first down on first down. You can get a first down on second down or you can get a first down on fourth down if you want to take the chance, but if you don’t make it on fourth down, the other team gets the balls the bottom line is you have up to four downs to get 10 yards to get a new first down so you can keep moving the ball and the defense tries to stop you short of them 10 yards so you have to punt the ball away to their office and then they try the same sequence now the defense can cause you to drop the ball or fumble it and they get it back for their all fence or the defense can intercept a pass and they get the ball back for their office with the goal of trying to score a touchdown or if you get close enough and cannot score a touchdown to get a three point field goal which is kicking it through the orange I mean the yellow uprights. You do that for three points from far away or after a touchdown for the PAT point after touchdown which is one point but that’s close to the goal post.
Hello Jon Graham. I highly recommend you visit the states during Sept. and Dec. Spend some time at a typical sports bar on college football Saturday.
If there's ever a game you're going to go to, you need to go to the Ohio State michigan game. It is always the most anticipated college football game of the year
The ones you saw here are just a very small sampling of the games that are being played across the country every Saturday during the season. Everything from D1 down to very small colleges. and even some high school games are played on Saturday.
That last one, at Michigan Stadium, had an attendance over 110,000.
College is def. a lot more about passion and tradition compared to the NFL. It's awesome because a big part of the crowd is students that live and study right by the stadium, so after a long week of studying, they wanna let out all their energy and defend the home team. I've always wanted to visit South Africa, hope you get to visit the states sometime as well. Cheers!
Whats really hard to get from the videos though is just how loud these stadiums get during an entrance.
Welcome to come to VT, not a particularly good team right now after a disastrous last season but everyone showed up for the first game of the year and did the entrance again like we were national champs and playing against a so-so opponent.
The SEC (South Eastern Conference) is the best. There's nothing like a game at Tiger Stadium at LSU, especially at night. They don't bring the live tiger to the game anymore, he just hangs out in his multimillion dollar enclosure outside the stadium. The little dude in the front of the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame is now the coach at LSU. The coaches make millions of dollars each year. That's how big college football is. LSU's stadium seats over 102.000 people.
Something ppl dont usually mention is the uniforms. College Football uniforms are fn sick. 🔥🔥🔥🔥. They always look badass.
