I think Ole Miss, Arkansas, and LSU all have great campuses. If I had to choose the most appealing I would go with Ole Miss. The architecture is very appealing, and goes in hand with its history. Arkansas and LSU have campuses with less historical buildings. I believe LSU has only been in its current location since 1926. Arkansas has a mixture of architecture, which seems odd compared to many other SEC campuses.

I hate OM.
I hate the fans and the smug attitude many have.
However if I didnt love LSU, it problably wouldnt be that way.
Oxford is a nice small southern college town.,,sorta like athens.
UGA has a nice campus.
Om does have a prttey campus, but I wouldnt say it trumps LSU.

I understand that. I've had my share of bad experiences in Oxford during both times I visited for a game. I've had that in Athens too. But just rating how nice a campus is, I have to give Ole Miss props.

Oxford is my favorite college town in the SEC, by far.

the nicest campus thing is very subjective. Ive heard tons of non-lsu fans tell us we have the nicest campus though.....

also, the area around the campus lakes at LSU> anything in oxford.

I think OM has the best campus in the SEC.

Because of the fans?? If you go in with the whole opposing fan talking shite and what not then the Ole Miss people will be rude to you. Same with any other campus. I can remember being there in 02 when we played Florida and the Florida fans were being smug arse holes the Ole Miss fans were not appreciative and were ugly to them. That's the only time I have seen it that bad overall.

Wrong again. It's been in BR since 1869.

LSU's current campus has only been there since 1926. it was in BR before that but not at it's current location. It was previously by the State capitol. I'm pretty sure of this.

The campus was designed in an Italian Renaissance style. The original quad is ideal in planning. The worst part of LSU was sticking a modern Middleton Library building in the middle of the quad.
