To answer your question, these all appear to be standard weekly games, not finals or playoffs. College football is a huge event and it dominates the Saturday afternoons all over the U.S. at colleges and Universities. People will travel from all over a state to attend the games of larger schools whether they attended that school or not. Allegiances are usually formed at a young age and last a lifetime.

The most important aspect of college football you have to wrap your head around is that the most successful programs are in "College Towns." College towns aren't big metropolis's they are mid-level population centers.

You have a giant stadium with 100k fans that spend a fuckload of money to get in. Plane tickets, RVs, hotels, etc. You have well coaches teams with top of the line facilities and staffs. All sorts of crazy/expensive shit going on. Imagine seeing this, coming from a poor country and seeing this. Then realize it's happening at 50+ other places in the country. 5, or more, places in Texas alone

Even our High School Bands sit in the bleachers with the rest of the folks and students during the game. We play when our team scores a touchdown. When there’s a stop of any kind on the field we play from the stands as well. We actually play and sing and try to get the crowd motivated along with the cheerleaders. We have a school song that our band plays at every game. Our job as the band is to motivate people and create team spirit and make it a fun and interactive game. I loved Band and always looked forward to the game, it was so much fun!❤

Friday night football is a huge community event, especially in rural areas

College Football is so huge here because of the intense state pride people here have for their state and their pride in their state schools. And state vs state rivalries are intense. And schools within the same state are even bigger rivals. Every red-blooded American sports fan marks their calendars for Sept 1st every year. Autumn in the US is simply glorious. It is so much a part of who we are.

The second college in the video is my hometown school here in Louisiana. They are the Louisiana State University Fighting Tigers (LSU). A full stadium on a Saturday night in the stadium is absolute chaos and very very loud. Stadium holds about 102,000 and the fans have gotten so loud a few times that nearby earthquake sensor’s registered 2-3 on the scale. Our band is huge and very good. Our mascot is a Tiger and we have a living 800 pound tiger living in a giant enclosure right outside the stadium. That little chant they were singing is quite profane and the band is forbidden to play it (they do anyway) or be fined $25,000. They’ve been fined several times over the past decade but they’re gonna keep doing it because the fans love it!

This is normally a half day event. Tailgating before and after the game. Tickets and be hard to get and the cheap tickets are normally around $50.00. Season tickets can take years to get. I think it's changed recently but it used to be you could leave your tickets to your decendants. That's how much people love their college football.

Night games are the best. Retired from tailgating but typically 1/2 day off on Friday to prep. Up at 4-4:30 am on Saturday, 20 mins to campus, start setting up around 5:15ish. Tables, chairs, coolers, satellite dish, electronics, tents, generator, food, etc. Done around 7:30 am. Drinking while watching college gameday on ESPN for 3 hours. People start rolling in slowly until you get to 11am and then more and more. Start cooking food 2-3pm. Watch early games. People start heading to stadium about an hour before kickoff. We watched game at the tailgate. Game over around 11-11:30 pm. Take about 2 hours to take everything down and get it all packed back up. Head home. Pull in driveway 1-2 am. Recover Sunday. Night games typically are a 19-21 hour day for us door to door and only 20 mins there and 20 mins back are driving. It’s beautiful.

You are watching a typical Saturday College football game in the US. You are watching Division 1 schools (the biggest that are most well known), but there are almost 1000 smaller colleges that have this same kind of weekend; just not 100,000 fans, but thousands will be there. It's the best fun!! Regarding the players, only 1-2% of high school football players play Division 1 college football, and about 1% of those players have an opportunity to play in the NFL. Also, remember, these are just college kids - their primary reason for being at school is for their education. They are between the ages of 18-23. They have a very strenuous schedule to be college athletes in any sport. Mixing training with school.

These are normal games during the season. Some college football stadiums hold more than 100K people. People get to the stadium early and tailgate in the parking lot and then go into see the game and then go home. It's an all day affair.

Our college football has a huge alumni support as well. It starts hours before the game with tailgating and just fills the stadium. Even high school football in some states is just off the chain.

Penn State holds well over 100,000 fans. These stadiums are on campus. If a player goes to a Division I or even smaller school and are good he has a good chance of getting drafted into the NFL. HE’ll maker millions there!

@gigipark123

Not exactly accurate. Only 1.6% of college football players get drafted in the NFL, and fewer than that end up making the cut and actually playing in the NFL. It's not enough to be "good." Even great players go undrafted depending on the needs of each NFL team roster. The truth is that only a handful of college players have a "good" chance of getting drafted and making "millions" there.

During a Penn State White Out game...the little Out in the Country, 4 hours from Everywhere becomes the Third Largest City in Pennsylvania........Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, then State College, Happy Valley Penn State!

In the larger stadiums you'll see upwards of 90,000 to over 110,000 fans in a packed stadium. It's so fun

Nebraskas entrance is far more about the legacy and legends of the team than the flashiness of other teams. (Also, their current stadium, Memorial Stadium, is now 100 years old!)

What will really blow your mind is that these stadiums host 6-7 home games a year. But, that also means each game is a major event because there aren't many each year. And it's all day as others have mentioned. Tailgate before, go to the game, tailgate after. Great times.

You CANNOT imagine the energy being in the middle of that. Words cannot describe it. Flyovers by military jets always make it special too.

Regarding the size of U.S. college football stadiums: I've frequently read that of the 10 largest stadiums in Europe and the U.S.; the largest 9 stadiums are college stadiums in the U.S.

There are over a 100 teams in division one college football. They stadiums hold up to 105,000 people. This is a weekly event starting in the Fall, the bowl games are at the end of the year. These stadiums hold more people than the professional stadiums.

In most of our states, the highest paid state employee is a college sports coach. Making more than governors, senators, university presidents, etc

I read somewhere that they had to try to get folks to stop doing Jump Around at Wisconsin because they were worried it would bring the stadium down and they had to reinforce it before they could reintroduce the tradition. A lot of these fan responses get so loud that they register on earthquake sensors, which is pretty impressive.

FYI even high school football games have bands in the stands. Generally as a courtesy the home team and the visiting teams bands will alternate playing for support of their respective teams. Also each teams bands will play after a score by their team.

the big college stadiums have higher crowd capacity than NFL stadiums. some go over 100k people

3:38 High School AF is on Fridays, College Saturdays and NFL on Sundays, primarily, and other days. College AF is 12 games long; not including Bowl Games, playoffs and the National Championship.

Can’t believe they didn’t have Texas A&M on there. The stadium is biggest in Texas and top 4 in the country at over 104,000 capacity. When the crowd sways side to side sawing varsity’s horns off the press box on top moves side to side as well.

Florida State U. alum here. The atmosphere at college football games is palpable. You wouldn’t regret a trip to check a game out. Love y’all Brits thanks for the video cheers mates

4:00 These are generally just standard games, however it appears most of these are night games, which means it is usually a big game (either against a big rival, or more likely both teams are ranked in the top 20 or so teams in the country, so it is a huge draw and the powers that be decided to make it a night game with a national television audience). But you will get minimum 80-90% of this atmosphere at any game you go to of any of these teams.

That goes for quite a lot of the bigger colleges - they are very connected to the community in the areas surrounding the campus.

Home team always has home field advantage for obvious reasons. Conference championships, Bowl Games and national championship games are played on a neutral field. Each college usually has it's own stadium just for football.... The bands perform the whole game and march on the field at halftime. Every student in the band is also on a scholarship. Unbelievable amounts of money from media companies pours into college football.

The first one was Penn State(Nittany Lions) in State College PA -called Happy Valley! This is every Saturday and games are on network TV all day!! Game u had was the White Out. Once a year. Every game one side yells “We Are” other side “Penn State”. This goes on for awhile when one side yells Thank you & other yells You’re Welcome. College players are on scholarship and may(?) get a small stipend. I was at a Friday night FB game from the time my son played flag FB thru HS Varsity. LOVED EVERY MINUTE!! Then in the fall it’s Penn State on Saturday- get there early- tailgate- students start camping out in tents 48 hrs before game!!!

For the most part, high school games are on Friday night, college games are on Saturday afternoon and the NFL plays on Sunday afternoon. When you here the term Friday Night Lights, they're referring to a Friday night high school football game.

We live in central Illinois. Our town that we live in has only 1200 people. We live an hour away from what we consider our local college team the Fighting Illini but yet when they’re playing, huge amounts of people from our town and surrounding towns drive to see the Fighting Illini play and we also go see them when the Nebraska Cornhusker’s come to play the Fighting Illini as the Nebraska Cornhuskers are my husbands favorite team.

These are normal games and weekly during football season , I graduated from the university of Oklahoma, we also have a great fan base. And it gets a lot more intense when we play our rivals The university of Texas. It also has to to do with pride where generations of family members are alumni of the university.

College stadiums in division 1A are typically much larger than NFL pro team stadiums. Many college stadiums have capacities of well over 100k and they sell them out EVERY week. Not just for championships. Michigan, Ohio State, and Penn State are renown for huge capacity and crazy atmospheres. Again, every home game. And every other college isn't too far off from the big colleges. As big as NFL stadiums and packed every home game with crazy fans. It's an experience, to be sure.

These Stadiums are filled like this every weekend for every game and it gets bigger has the game goes into the championship at the end of the season. A must watch is Army vs Navy.

The biggest stadiums in the country are college football stadiums

That is every weekend in the fall. EVERY WEEKEND!

Alabama’s band is called The Million Dollar Band and they are singing Rammer Jammer.

The University of Michigan's, Michigan Stadium aka "The Big House" is the largest stadium in the western hemisphere and 3rd largest in the world. Official capacity is 107,601 and they've had an attendance of over 100,000 for the last 308 home games straight. Even the games held during the 2020 pandemic shortened season. There are only 12 games in a regular season and about half of those are at home, so they've had over 100,000 people in attendance every game for decades. Even with 100,000+ in the stadium, for big games(Ohio State) there's often another 100,000 people outside tailgating. Most of these games are normal regular season games. Games are every Saturday from early September to the end of November, then they have Bowls and the College Football Playoff. The National Championship was actually this last Monday, and the Georgia Bulldogs won for the 2nd year in a row.

Most fans in the stadiums "graduated" from the universities, or are students. That is why there is so much passion and love for their teams.

College football is the best! Every school has their own band. They perform at halftime, and play the school’s fight song when they score. You can see how intimidating it can be to be the traveling team when you have this kind of home field advantage, although every team has fans that travel to be at every game too.

College football was already huge and the second most popular sport in America before the NFL was even founded in 1920 and in many parts of the US was even more popular and still is.

College football is the greatest sport that will ever grace this earth. There is nothing like it.

The big conferences have stadiums that seat more than NFL stadiums. The University of Michigan has the largest football stadium. It seats close to 110,000.

A few things to bear in mind: football started at the collegiate level LONG before it existed in the NFL. So the fan bases are much more firmly entrenched. The first college football games took place in the late 1860’s, just shortly after the Civil War. The NFL wouldn’t come around for more than than half a century after that. Two: a number of NFL teams have moved over the years, such as the original Cleveland Browns (now Baltimore Ravens), Baltimore Colts (now in Indianapolis), Oakland Raiders (to L.A., back to Oakland, and now Vegas), Chicago Cardinals (to St. Louis, then Arizona), Houston Oilers (To Tennessee Titans), L.A. Chargers (to San Diego after just one season in L.A., now back to L.A.) With college football, fans never have to worry about them moving. 3, they’re much more accessible. There are 130 Division 1 FBS football programs, and roughly again that many FCS, not to mention Division II and III. You usually don’t have to go far to go to a game, and the tickets are more affordable than the NFL. 4. Most of the stadiums are much much older AND bigger than NFL stadiums (at least when it comes to the top 50 or 60 stadiums in college. Most of the stadiums (Minnesota’s TCF Bank Stadium notwithstanding) of the Big Ten conference are over 90 years old, and Wisconsin’s Camp Randall Stadium is over 100 years old. They are much more intimate environments. Iowa’s Kinnick Stadium seats around 70K, but the seats are the closest to the field of any stadium in the FBS. Fans in the front row have been known to at the very least talk trash to the opposing team, and sometimes actually mess with them by stealing their stuff.

Some key points: seasons are 12 games Only 6 or 7 are home games, so they are huge events. An all- day affair or weekend at Penn State, which was 1st in this vid… get there early no matter whether the game is at noon or 4pm… tailgate with food and alcohol on the college stadium grounds. It’s a blast! … better with a win, of course.

Both Highschool and Colleges have Pep Bands in the stadiums during the game. Then at halftime, the band usually performs the halftime show.

Alabama fan here. That last tradition you watched is called the “rammer jammer”. At Alabama home games (capacity 101,000) and road as well, after Alabama wins which they almost always do the band plays the rammer jammer, the words go like this: “HEY (opposition nickname) HEY (nickname). HEY (nickname) WE JUST BEAT THE HELL OUT OF YOU, RAMMER JAMMER, YELLOW HAMMER GIVE EM HELL ALABAMA! Alabama’s State bird is the yellow hammer.

We have great tailgating parties before every game. Anyone is welcome…..so come on over and join us !!

College Marching Bands perform pregame & at half time for every college team. A real treat is to see Historically Black College Marching Bands perform. Soul respected by all Americans. Britain should invite them to perform at your American Independence celebration.

College football has the richest tradition in ALL of modern sports

This kind of enthusiasm occurs every Saturday all over the country.

Just your average Sat night in every town in America. I'm from Wisconsin JUMP AROUND!!!!!

Believe it or not, College stadiums are usually bigger than NFL stadiums for the larger programs.

Passion of College Football stems from the regional rivalries. The regions love to hate each other. In a way, its a continuation of the Civil War. North/Big Ten vs South/SEC. Alabama is the preeminent team. That is why you see so much excitement when they get beat.

When all the fans are doing the hatchet chop movement with their arms, that's a call/sign of support for the Florida State University Seminoles. Their mascot is a Seminole indian (Osceola), on horseback that will ride out onto the field.

Game day college football is an all day celebration, folks arrive early, set their grills, smokers and other various cooking appliances, and proceed to tail gate party, you'll never eat better grub and everybody is welcoming.

Not special games. We just LOVE our college football! There are about a dozen stadiums in America that hold 100,000+ people and ALL of them are college stadiums! The NFL has the best players since football is their job but nothing compares to the college game experience. Bands, cheerleaders, dance teams, student sections, live mascots, traditions and generations of family cheering together . It truly is special.

College football is the most watched sport in America. College is the only feeder system to the NFL so it makes sense why its become so massive.

American Football, both College and the NFL, have very short seasons. We're talkin' 12-17 regular games per season with just half of those at home. A home football game is a reason to celebrate. Colleges do this very well.

Most of those are just regular games. The biggest stadiums in the US are college stadiums. The University of Michigan's stadium is the largest (it's nicknamed "the Big House") is over 107,000 capacity. During the biggest rivalry games you can't hear yourself think it's so loud.

A league that is over 150 years old. Alot of these college teams have tradition and century old rivalries.

Yes Wisconsin now allows only a few sections to jump. When they first started it the entire stadium would jump and yes they did put cracks in the foundation.

I went to Virginia Tech or technically known as Virginia Polytechnic Institute and Stage University. The other shorten name is Virginia Tech Hokies. They usually play Enter the Sandman as the players enter the field. At the top of the entrance, the players would touch a blarney stone for good luck. The team mascot is a turkey. To get further enthusiams, the cheerleaders would shoot free t-shirts into the stands aiming high and low. Another part of the university is the Corp of Cadets destined to join the military after graduating. They would wear uniforms and square their meals (fork or spoon) by moving forward, then up, then into the mouth. This is just for the first year though. After that they can eat normally.

WEST VIRGINIAAA!!!! MOUNTAIN MOMAAAAAAA!!!!! TAKE ME HOME!!!!! COUNTRY ROADS!!!!! WVU fan here. The whole stadium sings that after every home game victory!

I know I’m late to this party, but just wanted to give you some perspective on a regular college game. The University of Nebraska has sold out every single game since 1962 and has a capacity of just under 90 thousand. On football Saturday, the stadium becomes the 3rd largest city in the State.

If you also want to see a marching band for college football, check out the Texas A&M video..not only amazing, but INCREDIBLE !!

These are all home games.( meaning that the team is playing at their home stadium)... and yes it is always this crazy at every home game....

These are just regular season games. Could be against a rival, but most of the time the crowds are sellouts at the schools shown. There are only 12 games in regular season which means 6-8 home games a year. Supply is limited

This is EVERY game. No matter where it is. It's a huge deal.

Amazing crowds , spectacular!

The big college football competitive teams always sell out. I was on a several years long waiting list to get season tickets until I gave up and bought someone elses's season tickets on the 40 yard line. After that 3 years ended I had to attend the University of Michigan to get my own season tickets for several years. I also got a degree. Students could only get one set of season tickets (discounted) so I had to drag a fellow student to the long ticket line and then I bought her tickets. haha. Same with the Rose Bowl in California. But lucked out with the 40 yard line. $50 in late 1980s as a student when tickets were being sold outside the stadium for $600 each.

These stadiums hold between 80 - 110,000 people. Big schools games are always sold out. Many schools are in small cities, when I was at the University of Georgia, Athens, the city where it's located had 11,000 permanent residents and 30,000 students, The stadium at that time held 80,000, now 95,000.

Actually a good majority of the college football stadiums are bigger then any of the football stadiums over there. The Big Ten Conference have 3 of the Top 5 biggest stadiums in the world and the Top 3 biggest stadiums in the world outside of Asia.

These are standard games. This happens every Saturday from September to December. People come and have tailgating parties well before game time. Most of the time the stadiums are sold out every game.

There are 8 college stadiums with at least 100k capacity, Michigan, Penn State, Ohio State, Texas A&M, Louisiana State, Tennessee, Alabama and Texas. College football tends to have larger crowds in the south.

Absolutely not true. Us northerners pack the stadiums just as much as you southerners and have the 3 biggest stadiums in the country in the north and all 3 are usually sold out for every home game.

Colleges have built in fan bases. There are tens of thousands of students and they organize the colors and Pom Pom’s and such. Like Penn state has their annual white out game which is famous and everyone wears white. Also they have alumni that come and local people that don’t have a pro team nearby. There are also only like 12 games a season so it’s not a lot of games. Every Saturday in the fall and into the winter. These are regular games not championships. It’s fun and very popular. The ten largest football stadiums in the US are college stadiums.

They are absolutely getting paid even before the recent rule changes. A scholarship in football/basketball is worth anywhere from 30-60 thousand dollars a year in tuition, room, meals, books, etc. new rule changes have allowed name image likeness payments. But that is on an individual basis so you have a few players on each team who might make significant money but rest may be a few thousand or so. It’s a very recent change so we’ll see what happens

Dudes this is just every Saturday during football season! We Are Penn State...100,000 stong on Saturday!
