“Location to the Rocky Mountains is fantastic” they’re called Appalachian State for the Appalachian Mountains 🤦🏻‍♂️

Yes I know, talking a bit to quickly for my brain. Appreciate you pointing it out though, so people know the right information

I always used to rebuild a sunbelt team back in the day. So hype for CFB 25!

Just came here two months later for exactly that reason! Looks like it’ll be Texas state for me

[@artycat0811]

Just F.Y.I. the Sun Belt is among the best G5 conference s, good video but you need to do a little homework first. Georgia St. can't have a on campus stadium and they saved millions and millions "reusing" an old stadium and you also didn't lose a million dollar stadium and tax payers money.

[@_WastedPotential]

Yeah back in maybe 2011-2014 the sunbelt used to be a punchline for the FBS. Not anymore

[@s98247]

Southern miss has always been in the FBS lol

[@_WastedPotential]

Yeah I meant to say Sunbelt (which they joined in 2022) not sure how I kept saying FBS in the video. I'm just stupid sometimes lol. Thanks for the correction

[@Drew-dy4hc]

Not always. We were D2 when the national title were won.

[@jeremiahcole2542]

Back in 1958 the college football landscape was a bit scrambled

[@LannyMixon]

​@@Drew-dy4hc Southern Miss has been at the highest level of NCAA current FBS since 1970.

[@FrankD71864]

And back in olden days there was a fellow by the name of Brett Favre that played there before Frank Gore Jr. was born.

[@OSUcowboycountry]

When my wife and I went to see this stadium that one side was completely blocked off due to the construction. Go look at the video we did on it, the whole upper deck is gone. I will say the food stands on the rest of the stadium looked good.

[@dianedemore880]

Texas State left the south end zone like that with future plans to bowl it in (and connect to the end zone complex) in mind. Also, that end zone complex isn't new. Current construction of a new team enhancement center & weight room, with patio seating on top, will connect the whole of the bowl shape. New name: Jim Wacker Field at UFCU Stadium.

[@McSus2]

Kid Brewer Stadium is my favorite stadium in this conference and I actually saw Bobcat Stadium irl

[@jamesfields2916]

JMU looks more like Georgia Tech.

[@rkupiecjr]

With Georgia state it’s better then a big empty stadium just sitting there

[@_WastedPotential]

Hey that is true, I can't hate on it from a cost/ land use perspective. Can't say it's a great situation to be in though honestly

[@Co4chQ]

Who else is scouting for their CFB 25 dynasty team? Lol

kinda want to rebuild ulm

Malone Stadium in Monroe sucks because I live in ULM territory

[@jamesfields2916]

APPALACHIAN STATE is in the Appalachian mountains. Not the Rockies.

[@_WastedPotential]

Yep it's the first thing in the description, it is funny I said that though

[@willemcenter8649]

Sunbelt being the laughing stock of the ncaa is the worst take I’ve ever seen. It is easily above the MAC and has jumped CUSA entirely. Now when the ACC comes knocking for the best of the American we know the remaining southern teams will be begging to be admitted. Small regional feel with good atmospheres for the fans. Forget the tv money. The sunbelt is the best for the fans. Alabama: Birmingham Charlotte Florida Atlantic North Texas Rice UTSA All of them would be lucky to join the Sunbelt once the American gets raided. It’s also positioned luckily to be the conference that survives. The American will get raided. They will backfill with CUSA which will probably let SBC raid and end either of both of them. No power conference will come for any of the teams for a LONG time if ever, while those teams could eventually get relegated down to the future of G5 play on the East coast- the sunbelt

[@jamesfields2916]

Southern Miss best Alabama in Bear Bryant's last season. A solid D1 school for decades.

[@_WastedPotential]

Yeah they have been D1 FBS for decades, I was trying to refer to them joining the Sun Belt not them moving up to FBS football. Why I should be reading more off of a script

[@jamesfields2916]

@@_WastedPotential no worries. You're dealing with sophisticated fans. Lol.

[@MARLONdaman]

What I don’t inner stand is why you lived near the school but you didn’t know or accurately state the year of the football team tragedy?🤔 There was a movie on the team tragedy. Just constructive criticism here.👈🏿 I would have done a little more better research before posting this vlog post.

[@_WastedPotential]

I live probably about 3 hours away, not really a local team to me. I just meant I live close enough to go there to catch a game once a year. But I appreciate the criticism

[@ajmizenko983]

Side note App State plans on expanding to 40,000 seats in the next 5-10 years since they average 34k per home game

[@_WastedPotential]

They deserve it, hope the expansion goes well!

[@mattwoodlief5450]

APP State is in NC. Not the rockies

[@_WastedPotential]

Yeah it’s in the smokies, I did mention that in the video

[@davidr5658]

App State is in the Blue Ridge, not the Smokies, which are further south, but at least both are in NC and part of the Appalachian chain.

[@alexanderbarnett4948]

Fun video. 2 critiques: maybe rank the stadiums and go off of that. Or just keep the capacity order but include your overall ranking in a corner. Also app state is the Appalachian mountains, not the rockies.

[@_WastedPotential]

I must've said Rockies, I meant smokies. Even though it's not even technically in the smokies anyways haha. I appreciate the feedback. I plan on doing a ranking series when I'm done with these lists.

[@allenthesingerinstgram]

Coastal Carolina stadium is like a surf turf beach party of or Beach vibe stadium I'm from Myrtle Beach south Carolina born and raised my dad graduated from coastal Carolina but this video dope i appreciate it

[@_WastedPotential]

I have a buddy who goes to Coastal says he loves it down there. I definitely plan on checking it out soon

[@allenthesingerinstgram]

@@_WastedPotential yes sir games during the day like around 12:00 or 2:00 at coastal is like a beach vibe but night games are like beach party but we planning on moving back home before the season start im try to make it one day maybe homecoming

[@bronzeguy9839]

But is it solid? Because if it’s not solid, what’s the point. Needs to be solid. But even better, REALLY solid. But I agree, Georgia State’s stadium isn’t solid.

[@guerrillavinyl3178]

When did the Rockies shift to North Carolina?

Ay stop the hate on the grey field. EMU has a cold color combo

Haha I have to get my shot in there, honestly it doesn't show up the best on TV. If you've been to a game there I'm interested in what it looks like in person

[@michaelstallings5824]

georgia tate stadium was olympic stadium as well as the home of the braves

[@iseetrains]

5:17 They originally had just the lower deck on the away side. At some point years after it opened, they built the 2nd deck.

[@_WastedPotential]

Thank you, good to know in any future videos. Much appreciated!

[@parrin96]

I am from Texas but live near Marshall now. I would strongly encourage going to a game. I always have a good time.

[@RobotRebelCinema]

Idk where you got your info from but USM has been in the FBS for decades. Since the 50s.

[@_WastedPotential]

Yeah I know, it wasn’t bad info I just didn’t say the right thing, I meant to say they had just joined the sunbelt which was in 2022. Just me being stupid

[@dylansmith7576]

Yea Texas state used to have a track that wrapped around the whole field so that’s why the field is so far from the stands. But we did add standing room at the bobcat complex that should be done by the season!

[@dylansmith7576]

and the sunbelt is currently the best g5 conference…

[@_WastedPotential]

1Yes they should never be considered the laughingstock of the FBS. I was not clear at all about that in the video. That being said ten years ago the conference did not get the respect it deserved. I appreciate the info on Texas states stadium as well!

[@AustiPriest]

For ODU, you need to look up the 2022 home game vs Virginia Tech. Packed stadium full of fans excited for a Monarch W over the Chokies

[@brodywiggins2156]

Mountain west please!

[@_WastedPotential]

In the works! Will probably be out next week, appreciate the suggestion

[@muddywaters2818]

Seems like during mid construction of half these stadiums they got the call that they didn’t have the budget to build the whole stadium and they just settled for half a stadium. I’ve always been fascinated by stadium designs. I’ve lived right by Lavell Edwards stadium in Provo Utah and Neyland stadium in Knoxville TN, they were beautiful to see. Best stadium I’ve been in person would probably be Oregon’s.

[@_WastedPotential]

I was just in Provo last year, beautiful place. I didn't get to catch game there but seeing that mountain backdrop makes me want to go back and see one. I at least got to walk outside of Lavell Edwards and Rice-Eccles when I was in Utah. Every time I go to a new place, I need to see there sporting venues. It annoys my girlfriend sometimes haha. When I was little my parents would took take me to a minor league baseball game a couple times a year and I remember thinking how many little teams there are out there that nobody has even heard of, so many of them having high quality ballparks that never even get mentioned. Ever since that time stadiums/arenas/ballparks have always peaked my interested. I have spent way to much time looking up obscure Stadiums lol

[@muddywaters2818]

@@_WastedPotential I literally lived right across the street in the apartment complex that’s part of the parking lot of Lavell Edwards stadium. It would get surprisingly loud but yea definitely everything surrounding the stadium makes it even more beautiful. I played a HS scrimmage in Neyland stadium and it was like being in the Roman Colosseum. That’s awesome about your parents. My dad and uncle played at BYU and always took us to games when we could go. I’m excited for the new EA football game to check out all the stadiums and environments.

[@_WastedPotential]

That would be really cool place to call home, always nice when there is that family connection too. I actually went to high school with two of Chris Hoke's sons who both played/play for BYU and I was good friends with one of them. Not sure how well-known Chris is at BYU, but I know he played there and went on to play for the Steelers which is how I knew him. I also can't wait for this new NCAA football game; I almost wish it was like the good old days where you would wait hours outside of a GameStop just to get a copy.

[@muddywaters2818]

@@_WastedPotential right lol. Me and my 4 brothers would make our mom take us near midnight and she’d argue saying why would a video game store be open that late lol. Good times. I’m a gator fan and I was happy to get Tebow on the cover. My favorite team to play with was West Virginia with Pat White, Steve Slaten, and Noel Divine. Cheat code playing with those guys.

[@Drew-dy4hc]

USM has been FBS since the 70s.

[@_WastedPotential]

Thanks someone let me know I said that incorrectly already. I meant to say they joined the Sun Belt which was in 2022. I understand that has nothing to do with FBS/FCS so I don't expect for anyone to understand what I meant. I appreciate you letting others know though!

[@DougTransportation]

App State is not in the Rockies 😆 man do some research

[@CurtisDavis-ok1eq]

Nice, Cool!

[@rajon08champs]

I go to Georgia Southern! Paulson Stadium seating isn’t bad at all. The bottom deck away on the opposite side from the press boxes is mainly student seating and every game we allow somewhere in the realm of 10,000 student if I’m not mistaken and with that being said we broke our attendance record this past season and I’m honestly waiting for the school to expand the stadium as our continues to grow. The second deck covers shields the space for some luxury seating which is the beer garden. I’ve sat there before and it’s good cool seating out of the sun! I’m hoping the next renovations are to the end zone at Bishop. Maybe they could do something similar to what southern miss has but I’m sure they have some ideas already in the pipeline seeing as every one of our other programs is getting some sort of expansion in some shape or form.

[@BE_]

is the CUSA next?
