Nice read... Kinnick Stadium ranks in the top 5 atmospheres”
- Thread starter Hawkeyeinsoutherncalifornia
- Start date
Kinnick only rocks at night IMO. 11AMs are usually pretty tame. People do get jacked when it's a 2:30 in a meaningful matchup, but it's always electric at night. We need to get back to the early 2000s level of crazy and start a massive home winning streak again.
Not bashing, but where are 11AM games rocking? At my age, I don’t completely hate the 11 AM starts, but morning football just seems a little off for me (again, maybe my age - predate these early TV times).
11:00 A.M.s suck everywhere IMO.
They didn't suck in 2002-2005 when I was in school. Maybe it's just a matter of perspective. I think we need to start taking it easier on FRI nights and start getting ****ed up earlier on SAT mornings again. RIP Olive Court.
Ha! Because no one wants to listen to 90,000 blowhards about how Scott Frost will lead them to elite level via the early 80’s 90’s
No mention of a certain stadium in Lincoln...
Are we 5th as the article suggests or are we in the final 5? I think the awards are tonight on ESPN2
I like 11:00 games, but I fricking love night games at Kinnick.
I hate the 11 am games, mostly because I usually have to work Saturday's until 2 pm. I try and watch the game on my computer, but for some reason damn customers feel they need service. Why aren't they at home watching the game? Selfish bastards..........LOL
Thank U.. that’s kick ASS! And number 54 was getting jiggy with it during “Back n Black” hilarious.. I still prefer Metallica over AC/DC.. same with Beavis and Butthead..
Can you imagine the looks on fans if IOWA opened up with Neil Diamond and Sweet Caroline or better yet with Devo and “Whip it”

I've been everywhere in the B1G except Minnesota's new stadium, and honestly, I have a hard time putting Nebraska in the Top 5 in the B1G, let alone the nation. Forgetting Kinnick due to my bias, easily ahead of them are Wisky, PSU, and OSU, I'd put Michigan next because it has tailgating. Then I'd stick Nebraska with MSU in a tie.No mention of a certain stadium in Lincoln...
I'll admit it's splitting hairs a bit though, they're all fun.
Yeah, night games at Kinnick are truly something special.I like 11:00 games, but I fricking love night games at Kinnick.
Wait.... Iowa fans actually think they have a better atmosphere than Lincoln? Holy crap that is delusional....
Balloons=/=Atmosphere
LOL - I've been to games at both stadiums - Iowa's game day experience is better. Have you been to both?
Thank you for the awesome picture.. my new home screen photo for my phone and laptop.. saaaaaaweeeet!

No, MSU does, it's just that in all MSU and Nebraska were on the same plain in terms of experience. Nebraska doesn't relative to most big ten schools. Sure, there were tailgaters at Nebraska, and they were great people I enjoyed speaking with, but we're talking overall experience here.So your saying Nebraska and MSU don’t have tailgating?
There is tailgating everywhere. Your wording made it sound like it was some big deal that Michigan had tailgaters. You didn’t say their tailgating atmosphere was better. You just said they have tailgating.
I mistakenly assumed anyone who had been to those stadiums would understand what I meant, and wouldn't take my statement literally. I should know better. Thanks for being that guy and setting me straight.
Wait a second. Dawills is saying that the ancient tales of people eating and drinking in somewhat close proximity to the football stadiums at Nebraska and MSU are...true?Mother of God. Dawills is a modern day Indiana Jones!!!
The Black and Gold looks almost surreal under the lights of a night game.I like 11:00 games, but I fricking love night games at Kinnick.

A night game every week wouldn’t be near as “rocking” as one or two important ones each year. 11 ams are great for a lot of reasons that have been discussed a million times. It will be fun to see a 4pm game.
