What's the largest capacity football stadium at a college?

I love college football and I'm looking for a school with a great team and an epic venue for games. Which colleges have the highest capacity stadiums? And does the size of the stadium have any effect on the atmosphere or the excitement of game day?

The college with the largest capacity football stadium in the United States is currently the University of Michigan, with their stadium, Michigan Stadium, which is also affectionately referred to as "The Big House." The official seating capacity is about 107,601, but they've squeezed in crowds of over 115,000 for some games.

In second place is Beaver Stadium, home of Penn State University's Nittany Lions, which can hold just over 106,000 spectators. Ohio State University's Ohio Stadium (the "Horseshoe") is another one of the largest, and can seat over 100,000 fans.

As for your question about the atmosphere, larger stadiums typically mean larger crowds, which can certainly add to the excitement and intensity of game day. There's a certain energy that comes from being part of a large crowd cheering for their team. However, keep in mind that the size of the stadium isn't the only factor contributing to an amazing game day experience. Traditions, team performance, the fans themselves also play a part.

Also, don't forget to factor in the quality of the education and the fit of the college as a whole, along with the school's football program, when making your decision on where to attend! While a superb football program and vivacious game day atmosphere can definitely enhance your college experience, your educational and personal growth should be your top priority.
