Ohio State Football: Top 5 Atmospheres in the Big Ten

What a cool place to watch a football game. The crowd is as rowdy as it gets, and they probably have the best student section in all of college football where 21,000 students wrap around the south endzone corner and the opponents sideline. This is another stadium where it just feels like the crowd is hovering over the field.

Aesthetically it’s also a marvel. It looks like the stadium was built with an erector set. The second-largest stadium in the Big Ten, Beaver Stadium will host White Out night games where the entire crowd wears white. Ohio State and Urban Meyer know, White Out games are the most difficult atmosphere to play as an opponent in all of college football.

Is there really a better place than Ohio Stadium to watch a football game? Heck no. This place has it all. Passionate fans, 100,000 plus capacity, and just littered in history and tradition. The Horseshoe, built in 1922, has seen many huge games over the years, and the fans always bring it for them.

From the Best Damn Band in the Land, to Hang on Sloopy, to the O-H-I-O chant, to the Rotunda, to Buckeye Grove, to the Skull Session, the history and atmosphere of an Ohio State gameday is just second to none. Plain and simple.
