re: Ole Miss named as having most beautiful campus in the SEC, one of the best in nation
Posted by Bama Bird on 5/17/24 at 1:26 pm
Strong disagree with UPenn and Carnegie Mellon. Congested nightmares.
OM and Missouri are beautiful campuses- I would've picked at least 5 other SEC schools before I got to Vandy though (Bama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, LSU off the top of my head)
LSU absolutely deserves to be on this list...

re: Chattanooga pronunciation
Posted by Bama Bird on 5/16/24 at 2:58 pm
Chattn-ooga.
The -an is definitely pronounced but it's extremely short so it sounds like a dropped syllable. Similar to how locals pronounce the New in New Orleans: barely a syllable but it's unmistakably there...
re: Are there any likeable SEC fanbases?

[quote]Alabama fans tend to ignore all of the questionable ethics that surround their programs.

This is the perfect description of Auburn.
Our biggest problem with our fanbase is the arrogance. Generally we're pretty friendly but there are a few who get unreasonably angry if another...
What is the "Dreamland" of Lexington?
Posted by Bama Bird on 5/15/24 at 8:36 am
I'll be passing through Lexington soon and I'm curious what the most iconic restaurant is. Not looking for the best or a hidden gem... looking for what would be comparable to what Dreamland is to UA. At the same time, not looking for anything mediocre if that makes sense... ...

Oh wow- I never thought I'd envy Georgia State in anything, but here we are.

re: RIP SEC on CBS
Posted by Bama Bird on 5/14/24 at 6:10 pm
[quote]This is false. SEC wanted to re-sign with CBS. For $300m a year and CBS would get first pick of games week to week, as they had previously. CBS walked away. So the SEC signed another deal. Then CBS ended up signing with the Big10 for third choice of weekly games, and are paying $350m a year f...

We haven't even needed 4 most of the time... BCS poll would've gotten it right nearly every year. ...

[quote]Trent Richardson[/quote]
I'd ultimately go with Shawn Alexander but Richardson is criminally underrated because of what transpired in the NFL. I think he's an easy #2 of the Saban era

#7 is a hard pick between Tennessee and Texas A&M but ultimately, this won't even be a question in two months: OU and TX are miles ahead in the basketball venue competition ...
re: Nicest SEC Stadiums/Arenas - Football/Basketball/Baseball
Posted by Bama Bird on 5/8/24 at 2:06 pm
In atmosphere, I agree. But I'd say UK, Ole Miss, Auburn, Mizzou, Arkansas and USC are nicer venues...

[quote]Vanderbilt has one of the best basketball venues and they upgraded baseball and are upgrading football.

I like Memorial because it's unique but I wouldn't say it's top 7 "nicest" in the SEC. It's basically like a high school gym mated with Carnegie Hall ...
re: Nicest SEC Stadiums/Arenas - Football/Basketball/Baseball
Posted by Bama Bird on 5/8/24 at 1:58 pm
At the moment, I'd say Tennessee isn't in top half of "nicest" in any sport. Possible Florida is in this list with OU/TX joining but idk about enough everyone else's baseball stadiums...

Probably... there used to be a few good UT posters here but they're MIA (Involnerable and Vols&Shaft are two I remember). It's still strange to me how little representation they have on here despite the size of their fanbase. ...
