7. LSU

Another bucket list item for me would be going to Death Valley to check out an LSU game in October or November for SEC play.

Why? Because of the atmosphere and the tailgate scene.

Plus, Baton Rouge just seems like a fun place to hang out for a weekend and meet some local LSU fans.

Can you just imagine being a visiting player and having 100,000-plus LSU fans breathing down your neck in one of the harshest home environments in college football? I don’t know about you, but I would simply just fold under the pressure.

There’s a reason Tiger Stadium is consistently considered one of the toughest places to play in college football and it’s because the fans bring it every single week. They had the 19th-best average capacity in 2022 and I see that number only rising in 2023 with a national title-caliber team.

Oh, and LSU has over two million (not a typo) Facebook and Twitter followers. That’s good for second-most in the SEC.
