This video left out the 4 newcomers to the Big 10 conference. Autzen stadium, home of the Oregon Ducks, has a capacity of 54,000 and is known as The House of Loud due to the insanely high decibel levels it can reach despite its small capacity thanks to its unique design and being built into a hill. Husky Stadium, home of the Washington Fusk-er, Huskies, has a capacity of 70,138 and until last year held the record for the highest recorded decibel level during a game at 133.6 decibels. It's also built adjacent to lake Washington where many fans roll up on their boats to, as they dub it, "sail gate" before the game. The Rose Bowl, home of the UCLA Bruins, has a capacity of 92,542 and is most famous for hosting the first ever post season game earning it the nickname of "The Granddaddy of Them All". These days it's also known for being half empty most of the time as the Bruins struggle to bring in enough fans during regular season games to fill it. Finally, there is Memorial Coliseum, home of the USC Trojans, which has a capacity of 77,500 and is more known for the many other events it's hosted than the USC games ranging from a World Series in baseball to the first ever Super Bowl to Olympic ceremonies. It's also home to dozens of feral cats who control the local rat population and occasionally make appearances during games. So there you go, NOW you're fully filled in on all the Big 10 stadiums. You're welcome 😊

@@AdamCouser There were 5 power conferences ("The Power Five") that featured major programs: "the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC), Big Ten Conference, Big 12 Conference, Pac-12 Conference, and Southeastern Conference (SEC)." Next season there will be 4. This major realignment is driven in large part by the pursuit of TV dollars (live sports becoming more valuable as it becomes more difficult for networks to attract viewers0. The Pac-12 basically ceased to exist. Four of its teams joined the Big Ten and four others joined the Big 12. Texas and Oklahoma, two historic programs, left the Big 12 for the SEC. The names "Big Ten," "Big 12." and "Pac-12" at one time reflected the number of teams in the conference (which were regional in nature). The ACC is in danger of imploding. Other recent factors affecting college football: - Players can now be compensated for their name, image, and likeness. Top QBs can draw offers worth millions of dollars - Players can now easily transfer. They might do so to chase dollars or playing time, among other reasons. Used to be they would lose a year of eligibility if they transferred. The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) operates as a governing body establishing rules and sanctioning schools who violate them. They lost legal cases that allowed these new developments. They would like congress to pass laws to help them rein in what's happening. Congress so far has been disinclined to act. The most powerful football programs--those with the most resources and history--tend to be state schools and it might not be popular politically to go against them and their alumni base. -

Most of these stadiums were built in the 1920s or before, but they weren't this large size at that time. The stadiums have had additions built to accommodate more seating capacity. College football in the US is so popular because the game was started at universities 30 or 40 years before the NFL got started. Also, a lot of these unis are in relaively rural cities making the football games in the fall the _only_ entertainment in town.

Okay this is an update Adam. NCAA College football are put into different conferences. This group is called the Big 10. Now the Nebraska statium was built in 1923 and now holds 85458 fans. Nebraska holds 5 National Championships and the Nebraska Cornhuskers own the NCAA record for the most consecutive sellouts at their stadium in Lincoln, Nebraska. As of November 17, 2022 Memorial Stadium's 100th season wraps up on Saturday. Nebraska football's home sellout streak will still be chugging along at 60-plus years and 389 games. The streak began on November 3, 1962. Nebraskans take their football to heart.

One thing you’ll notice with older built stadiums is they had to have an end open on one side. In the beginning stages these hosted a track for track and field events. Old age tracks used to have an extremely long stretch. Much longer than a football field. Hence why stadiums like the horseshoe exist. I would highly recommend looking into some of the pictures from the 1920s and 1930s. You can see how much these have grown over the last 100 years! Love the content keep it coming!

To answer your question on how some of the stadiums look like they should fit more/less. Its because (especially the older ones) some of the stadiums have smaller "seats". The bench seating style allows for much smaller areas than ones with actual stadium seats. Im a season ticket holder in one of these stadiums and the seats are about 16 inches wide. While your typical stadium seat with armrest is 20-22 inches wide. We really get crammed in there like sardines

And the thing is this you've got to keep in mind. Not just that these stadiums have the number of seats that they list, but they fill those seats to a 100% capacity. Every single week until football season is over. So having a 100,000 seats is one thing, but filling them is another. Actually it's every other week because every other week is an away game. Then on top of that, keep in mind that there's about 40 of these games throughout the country, every single week. And they all basically fill the stadium.

And for whatever it means I wasn't picking a number. That was exact. I was giving a generalized response sort of like saying I had around a dozen or something when in fact it might have been 10 or it might have been 15.

I'm a Michigan alumna. There is no place for football like the 'Big House.' It holds more people than the last 3 towns I've lived in. I worked at the Univ of Iowa. If you notice a white, football shaped building, next to the stadium, that is the university's Children's Hospital. Kids who are able, can come up to a lounge with big windows and look down on the stadium during the game. There is a new tradition of people in the stands turning and waving at the kids. It's gotten a lot of press and is one of the better college football traditions. While Ann Arbor goes football crazy, I think Iowa City goes even more nuts. It's a ghost town while a game is going on, home or away.

even though stadiums may be listed as built in early 1900s, their original capacity was likely expanded to the current capacity with 1 or more construction expansions (could have upgraded different sections in different years) and to upgrade to more current technology/engineering options (skyboxes/elevators/video boards). it's also worth noting these stadiums are mainly used for 'football' around 7-9 times a year. many schools hold their spring inter-squad football game in April, they might have practice games for the public in August, the 6-7 home games-depending on scheduling. (The new playoff system has home games at these school stadiums depending who makes the playoff). The postseason bowl games mostly occur at pro football/NFL stadiums though some do occur at university stadiums (some college teams play their season home games at NFL stadiums). Otherwise, the stadiums are football dormant. Some have concerts, some use their stadium for graduation, some may use it for local high school football games, and some have other large field sports (like lacrosse or soccer/footie) or even converted for basketball (Syracuse University Carrier Dome stadium-indoor under a roof- is football & basketball). Apart from college football games and other activities, many are empty >340 days a year.

I have seen several of these stadiums in person due to on campus competitions i have competed in. Michigan's really doesn't look much from the outside but does not stop getting bigger the closer you get to it. It almost acts like an optical illusion. OSU has by far the coolest to be in the field, the height of the stands and the design from the field makes it a massive and inspiring place to run around the field. I got to place in a cornhole(bean bag toss) tournament on the field and it was amazing to spend a couple hours on the field. I got a tour of the press box too, it is so large it almost feels like a maze. when on the field it seems so close but its far away. its so big i lost sight of it because i couldnt see the sky around it so my mind just said it was the sky and not a building.

A lot of these stadiums were originally built in the 1920s when the tracks for track and field had 220 yd/200 meter straightaways, so the horseshoe was because the track would keep going past the stadium back then. Once it became normal for the track to have 100 meter straightaways, seating was built behind the other endzone. Eventually, a lot of these colleges removed the track to get seats closer to the field since not that many people would show up for track meets and then have a stadium with a much smaller seating capacity for stuff like track, field hockey, soccer, and lacrosse.

A lot of these stadiums have lower capacity simply because they are in small cap markets and/or don't have a big/historical following, so they build to an accommodating capacity that is within their budgets. Schools like Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State (in the Big 10), or Tennessee, LSU or Alabama (in the SEC) are BIG money schools that also make a ton of money off of merchandise licensing - so they can afford to build out these bigger stadiums. Rutgers (as an example) is a very small market cap school that isn't richly steeped in college athletics, so doesn't really have a big following, the capacity need or the budget, to expand its stadium.

I absolutely love Camp Randell, but this video is a touch old. The end by the Field House has been renovated and it holds closer to 85,000 people. Best part about a Home Game there is "Jump Around" between the 3rd and 4th Quarters.

Just a quick note about the last one - it is now called Huntington Bank Stadium after TCF got bought out by Huntington Bank. While US Bank Stadium was being built, the NFL team Minnesota Vikings played at this stadium. It's a lovely stadium, with the outside dedicated to Native American tribes.

The U or horse shoe shape of most of these stadiums is due to them all hosting track and field in the past. Most had a track that would extend out of one side of the stadium with no seating.

Go check out the stadiums of the SEC, but make sure it's an updated one that includes Oklahoma and Texas. Notice that most of the schools and stadiums are not in major cities. Beaver Stadium (Penn State) is in a small city right in the middle of Pennsylvania, several hours away from the cities of Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, and it still fills to its 106k capacity.

Recruiting lounge is where you take the high school kids you are recruiting to try and come to play for you. These kids get all kinds of gifts, schools have been busted having women sleep with recruits on visits, etc. You are basically competing against 5 other colleges that each get an official visit from the recruit. Say this weekend a top recruit goes to visit Ohio State, then next weekend he visits Michigan. Eventually you pick your school to play at. Keep in mind these are 17 and 18 year old high school kids.

You need to research Neyland stadium and the Tennessee VOLS ( VOLS is short for Volunteers ) traditions. Look up the night games, spooky Neyland, or nightmare at Neyland, checker Neyland, the VOL walk and running through the T. The stadium is also known for the body farm under it.

Since you enjoyed the American College Football Videos so much: traditions, bands etc..... and we know you love food --Please check out "Tailgating", another great Fooyball tradition. FYI it is partying before the game in the parking lots -- many hours before the game starts. And eating and drinking yoursel into a near-coma! I say "near" as you do want to make it to the game! The food dishes served at the Tailgating is as varied as the States the game is being played in! I suggest: 'The Ten Most EpicTailgates in Collrge Football"

Fun fact, East Lansing becomes the third or fourth most populous city in Michigan on gamedays (if there isn't a game in Ann Arbor that weekend as well) lol normally 34th with a population of 47k (not including students) and balloons to about 200k on average if you include the tailgaters and other visitors not at the game itself.

I live just outside of Columbus, Ohio.where the Ohio State University is and the stadium. Its nickname is The Shoe as it was originally built to look like a horseshoe. It has been expanded over time.and now holds 110,000 people, and is usually packed for home games. My grandson played for Ohio State in the position of Wide Receiver. Its also the home of The Ohio State Marching Band. Check out their videos on KZbin. ( especially their tributes to movies and to Michael Jackson) The band is awesome. These are just stadiums in the Big Ten conference. There are at least 5 more conferences with many teams in each and so many more stadiums. College football is more popular than professional football, which is very popular. If you decide to come to the U.S. you should come in September or October when the trees are changing colors, the temperature is good; not to hot or cold, and catch a game of college football at Ohio Stadium and see the band. Also check out the Columbus Zoo. Its one of the best,

College football has the largest stadium seating capacities of any sports venue in North America, partly because it a very popular spectator sport (in some areas, the most popular one), but also because they play significantly fewer games per season than most of their nearest competitors (pro football, college basketball, major league baseball). Even high school football has more games per season if you count JV games as well as varsity. Since there aren't very many college football games, a larger percentage of the fans attend any given game, and so the stadia need more seating.

Loved this. I go to Michigan States football games. The stadium fits 75,000 there are about 55,000 students and 600,000 living alumni. I have been going to games at the University for about 30 years. Best time of the year for me. Every game day about 100,000 people desend on the campus to tailgate. Not everyone goes into the game. Its a gigantic party.

Now you got to see the big leagues lol, check out the best conference in college football, which some might say there are equals but all agree none are better. That being the SEC, or South Eastern Conference. That’s where my team plays. It’s the “Orange” stadium you saw in the video showing the entrances. That being UT, or the University of Tennessee. Our colors are orange and white, thus the orange you saw in the video. Our stadium, Neyland Stadium. It holds ~102,000 people, but use to hold ~ 104,200. They lost some seating where they added more sky boxes. Ours is not the largest, but is considered by everyone to be the loudest. It held the old record at 125.4 Db measured on the field, not the stands. Well, we broke our own record in 2023. After beating Georgia, they measured the sound level on the field as 137 Db. Fans that bleed orange blood get pretty loud come game day. By the way, the day of the old record was something you saw in the same video I mentioned earlier. The part where they tore the goal posts down was that 125.4 game. We beat Alabama that day. Ours isn’t the biggest, I think it’s eighth largest. But any in the SEC are nice. It’s understandable though as all the teams are doing well financially. Even smaller schools like Vanderbilt have nice stadiums. Hell, Florida has two lol!

I think these were alphabetical by the stadium name (other than Kinnick, which was out of place). Which is kind of a weird order to do them in (I would have expected either alphabetical by school or sorting by size one way or the other), but whatever. Prior to this year (where a bunch more major shuffling occurs, mostly with teams abandoning the Pac-12 for more money elsewhere), there were 10 conferences (local groups of teams, mostly) at the top level of college football, each with between 9 and 14 teams, plus a few "independent" teams who don't play in a conference. Other than the independents, each team plays 3-4 games against teams outside of its conference and then 8-9 games within the conference. Five of the conferences were considered "major" conferences (large schools, traditional powerhouse teams) and five "minor" (less well known, smaller schools). Geographically, you have: Upper Midwest: Big Ten (major) and Mid-American (minor) West: Pac-12 (major) and Mountain West (minor) Southwest: Big 12 (major) and Conference USA (minor) Southeast: SEC (major) and Sun Belt (minor) East Coast: ACC (major) and American (minor) There are some geographical outliers in a few of those (the Big 12 stretches into the Great Plains and also has West Virginia for some reason, and the American and Conference USA overlap in area pretty heavily, to the point where if you named a team in one of those conferences and asked me which conference they were in, I doubt I'd guess more than 2/3 of them right), but for the most part teams are (or were, until recently) in the conference you'd expect based on geography. And the names "Big Ten" and "Big 12" are holdovers from the era before the major realignments started happening; neither actually has that number of teams anymore (and in fact for a few years in the early 2010s, the Big Ten had 12 teams and the Big 12 had 10, to the amusement of pretty much everyone).
