25 best college football stadiums to watch a college football game

11. Memorial Stadium, Nebraska

From one Memorial Stadium to another, Nebraska hasn’t been one of the premier programs on the field, but the field itself is top-notch. Nebraska expects the Cornhuskers to be a competitive football team, and the school has put its money where its mouth is. Nebraska fans still sell out the 85,000 seat stadium every week despite its struggles. They’ve seen sell outs in every game since 1962.

One of the best parts about Memorial Stadium is how close it is to the field. The end zone seats are just feet from the end line. Fans can almost reach out and touch the goal post, so when a player scores a touchdown it’s simple for them to go right up to fans and make them part of the celebration.

The school made changes over the last few years to make the stadium a more comfortable experience. The second that sellout streak ends, it could be bad for Nebraska, so they widened some seats and made others less crowded in general. This was clearly a move to make sure people never changed their minds about their seats based on what’s happening on the field. That also makes it an experience to go to a Cornhuskers game. The fans are very passionate about the team, so they go hard. Some have said the fans get so loud, it can make your bones vibrate.

The “Sea of Red” is what makes this stadium an experience. While others need bells and whistles, this is one of the best pure football experiences in college football. Even if the football itself isn’t great, the experience of being there will make you forget that.
