The Swamp and Death Valley, as well as Austin, are usually ahead of Iowa on 'ratings' so I don't disagree. Bama I can give or take, and I'd guess they're probably comparable, just different (regional/geographic).

Hell, it wouldn't surprise me if they ranked USC #1-8 on the upcoming preseason polls.

That's neither here nor there, but I agree - media hype on USC was ridiculous, kind of the exact opposite of 2003 when they were probably the legit best team in the country (Also, this is why Amy is totally wrong about this, as she usually is about sports, so there biznatch). Corso did the spot on stadiums, but yeah - I'm just saying that us Iowa fans aren't making shit up, it's a legit claim and a pretty rowdy stadium (and also recognized by 'outsiders'). The stadiums you've named are sick - so's the Big House, but Iowa has a claim to being in that conversation in a serious fashion (as does Autzen).
