With a seating capacity of more than 100,000, Ohio State University is home to one of the most recognized football stadiums and winningest teams in college football history. Known to Buckeye fans as the “Horseshoe,” this stadium is the fourth largest on-campus facility in the U.S. It has hosted some of college football’s greatest games since 1922, and major musical performances by acts such as Beyoncé, Metallica, Taylor Swift, and the Rolling Stones.

Welcome to Michigan’s “Big House.” The largest college football stadium in the U.S. can host a crowd of more than 100,000, with a record-breaking 115,00 fans in attendance at a 2013 game against rival Notre Dame.

Today, the stadium holds more than 80,000 fans and plays host to some of the most competitive Big Ten battles.

Originally named Iowa Stadium when it was constructed in 1929, the University of Iowa renamed its stadium in 1972 to honor former player and Heisman Trophy winner Nile Kinnick, who was killed in World War II.

The University of Nebraska’s Memorial Stadium is great to visit—as long as you’re not a rival. Nebraska fans don’t take it easy on opposing teams.

The monochromatic camaraderie of the Huskers is matched only by their thunderous cheers in a close game. Potentially one of the most intimidating college football venues, Memorial Stadium can host more than 85,000 occupants.
