in the USA Fridays are for High School Football, Saturday is for College Football and Sunday is for Pro Football (NFL)

The first stadium is Michigan Stadium, nicknamed “The Big House”, has a capacity of around 107,000 but has held as many as 115,000 before. It’s the largest stadium in America and 3rd largest in the world.

Very true. Darrell K. Royal in Austin holds just over 100,000 and it's massive as well.

Tearing down the goalposts after a big victory used to be common but doesn't happen much anymore due to safety concerns.

Nah. Nobody cares about safety. They just made them collapsible so you can't use the weight of the crowd, to break it loose.

The Tennessee game (the orange stadium) where they took down the goal posts was because Tennessee beat their rival for the first time in 15 years and the fans actually took the goal posts and threw em in the river that's next to the stadium haha

Yes. I believe in the U.K. you call it a 'pitch invasion.' This was Tennessee's biggest win in many, many years.

College football was a thing in the US long before the NFL came into their own.

When the University of Georgia and the University of Florida play, it's in a neutral stadium. It's called the largest cocktail party in the world.

The thing to undestand about college football is thtat it PRE DATES the NFL. And these teams are all over the country (often in rather small towns) rather than in the largest cities. PLus tickets are cheaper and students usually get in free. People with no pro team close by follow their local college team and the athletes are at a pro level. They just don't get paid a salary. College football is like the minor leagues of American Football. But some programs have such storied histories that people genuinely prefer following their college teams to pro teams. I grew up in Tennessee and before the Tennessee Titans NFL team moved there from Houston, we had no professional team in Tennessee so I followed the University of Tennessee. The nearset pro teams were in Atlanta, Cincinnati, St. Louis, and New Orleans. Today there are closer teams like the Titans and the Carolina Panthers in the NFL. But all around the country in small college towns in the autumn on Saturday afternoons the towns swell to two or three times their size and the people flood in to tailgate and then attend the games. Restaurants and hotels make a lot of money. You should check out college football tailgate parties.

What planet are YOU on, that you think students get free tickets? What are you on about? No, not at all. Student tickets are often an option tossed in with tuition payment, but they are most certainly not free, to any school with a real fanbase. Maybe that is true at Tulane or something, but not P4 universities.

12:37 is Florida State University Seminoles. The Seminole Nation inhabited the southeastern US territory before the Spanish took it and, later, it became an American territory and state. The war cry, tomahawk chop, the native American warrior on the painted horse (Chief Osceola) with the flaming arrow is to pay respect to the Seminole Nation.

The song "Dixieland Delight" is by the group Alabama. When they yelled "Roll Tide" that is the Alabama Crimson Tide's motto. They were playing against Auburn which is another Alabama college.

The hand motions and chants the fans do represent a tomahawk chop.

The best tradition hands down was not in the video. It is called the Hawkeye wave. At the University of Iowa the football stadium sit right across the street from the hospital. On the 13th floor of the Stead Children’s Hospital, pediatric patients are given the opportunity to watch the game as the hospital is tall enough to look into the stadium. At the end of the first quarter all players,staff, fans, announcers and so many more turn around and wave to the children that are hospitalized watching the game from the 13th floor. It is a tradition that brings people to tears to see the children get the encouragement and support from everyone.

Every Saturday during the college football season 45 + stadiums are full with 55,000 - 100,000 fans depending on the stadiums capacity Every Sunday during the NFL season 14 to 16 stadiums are full with 65,000 - 80,000 fans

Every home game for big teams is like this, I’m a big Clemson fan and it’s a small town and we have 88,000 fans every home game, college football is something else!

I went to Virginia Tech. When the jumping occurs, the ground vibration can be measured on local seismographs. :)

8 of the 10 largest stadiums in the world are College football stadiums in the US. 100k fans at a college game are the norm for many schools, not an exception. College football in the US is an amazing spectacle. The first country song playing is at the University of Alabama. !00k fans . Alabama is the premier powerhouse in college football.

College football is HUGE in America. Michigan, Penn State and Tennessee have huge stadiums. Over 100,000 people.

That is Neyland Stadium in Tennessee.

You simply cannot go to a college football game without having fun. It's a wall to wall good time.

Football is very big in high schools, too, especially in southern states and Texas. I would be driving home from work on a friday, and there was always a big traffic jam of people going to the game. They did the tailgating as well. Eventually, we used to go out to eat after work rather than sit in the traffic.

The biggest College Football stadiums are also bigger than the biggest NFL stadiums. The first one you see, Michigan, is the largest football stadium in the USA. That goal post weighs around 500 pounds. College Football is much older than the NFL, so it has rivalries and traditions that are older than the NFL. Our military academies also have College Football teams. Army, Navy, and Air Force. The Army Navy game is a very big deal. Air Force vs Army, or Air Force vs Navy, don't get as much hype, but are still important. College Football season starts in September, and runs though the end of November. December and January have bowl games. During football season, you have high school games on Friday night, College games mostly on Saturday, and NFL on Sunday, Monday Night, and Thursday Night.

That field goal is going to take a swim in the river outside the Tennessee Vols Stadium 😂😂

Yes it did!

Whenever you see an orange and white checkerboard inside the end zone, it's the University of Tennessee Volunteers.

The last bit was at the University of Oregon. The movie "Animal House” was made there and the song is from the movie.

13:03 is the University of Oregon Ducks. "Shout" is from the movie "Animal House." The buildings on campus were used to film famous scenes from the movie. The duck mascot and the crowd are acting out one of the scenes in the movie when they sing softly and lay on the ground.😅😅😅

Several of these stadiums hold over 100,000 people.

Half the fun of a game is the atmosphere itself!

ROLL TIDE 🐘 the stadium with the country music that you thought may be texas was actually ALABAMA , ROLL TIDE 🐘

The University of Michigan, the one singing Mr Brightside, is the 3rd biggest stadium in the world.

To not have Auburn’s eagle flight in that video is Crazy.

The BIG Ten, the largest, oldest and wealthiest conference in the US, originally all upper Midwest schools, is where many of college football traditions started,, from first marching band to break ranks and form letter on field (Purdue) to the country’s largest stadiums to birthplace of college football overall (more recently added Rutgers University of NJ). In the South the SEC conference is football crazed too. The best games and fandom are in those two conferences, with a few others like Notre Dame. It’s important to remember many if these schools have 30 to 65K 18 to 22 year old students living in walking distance to the games, a huge party beyond game itself

The white stadium is Penn State, which is 104k +. The one with the military-looking band just after is Texas A&M, which has a very large ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) program. If it looks a little rowdier to start than your average World Cup game, it's because as a player, you need to put yourself into a certain mindset to play the game. Adrenaline dulls the pain, and what better way to get it pumping? Many of the fans played as kids, and it's old habits, plus it's just a great rush :)

Florida state Seminoles tomahawk chop. The university of Florida is their main rivals and our tradition is the gator chomp. We love bashing the Seminoles during games. It’s always half the stadium is chomping and the other half is chopping. It’s all in fun. The two schools were established very closely together on the calendar year. We’ve always been rivals. Florida state is more the type of school for engineering or business but not great for much else. The university of Florida has graduated more medical doctors, practical engineering, and every science related field is full of former students. The medical students with the engineering students actually together came up with a ventilator alternative that saved lives during the pandemic. It was never patented as they believed it should be for the public to use. Now every hospital in the country uses it as a step before a real ventilator meaning less people have to use one and it saves lives.

If you guys can get to Dublin on Aug 24th, FSU Seminoles (the ones with the horse and Chief Osceola, ) will be playing Georgia Tech Yellowjackets. Most likely the horse, Renegade, will not be shipped overseas and it won't be as electric as seeing a game in Doak Campbell stadium. But it's closer to you. If you get a chance to see a really good game in Tallahassee, like a rivalry, it's insane. It gets so loud you have to scream at the person next to you so they can hear you.

The second stadium with the "T" was Tennessee. The University of Tennessee. My favorite University and sports program. They had beaten Alabama for the first time in 15 years. The fans rushed the field and smoked cigars, which is a tradition for the winner in this rivalry. The fans tossed the field goal post into the river next to the stadium. Amazing night!

The team with the war chant that you said was like Native American is from Florida State University (FSU) in Tallahassee, Florida. The band on the field is known as the Marching Chiefs and the arms swinging is known as the tomahawk chop. I am a graduate from FSU and was in the Marching Chiefs. We actually went to London back in May 1997 to play for the World Football League and did the halftime show for the London Monarchs when they played the Barcelona Dragons.

I love how y'all embrace our traditions y'all are great mate.

Top college stadiums... Big House 107,600, Beaver Stadium 106,572, Horseshoe 102,780, Kyle Field 102,321,Tiger Stadium 101,915, Neyland Stadium 100,119 DKR Stadium 100,097, BDS 100,010,..Camp Nou 99,354, Wembley Stadium 90,000

College Football is such a vibe that you don’t need to be drunk. You have chants and traditions that you have current students and former students and their families come to the game. It is the fall air here in the U. S. it does something in the stadiums. I went to Oklahoma State and it was awesome!! There are so many universities here you can get confused with acronyms of which state school is playing 😂

The last stadium was Oregon and the song was "Shout" from the movie Animal House.

And by the way, you are correct, it is called 'The War Chant,' and drives opposing teams, and their fans nuts. It gets really really loud.

We tore down the goal post once in Louisville. That was against Florida State. Now, at Louisville, and at most other places, they put security around the goal posts at the end of the game to keep people from tearing them down. They are quite expensive.

9:52 the stadium where the country music was playing is the University of Alabama Crimson Tide. It said "CRIMSON TIDE" in the end zone. 😅

Probably not alcohol induced. Most college students are not able to purchase alcohol, and especially the band will not be drunk on the field.

Many of these are also the 'big game' where teams have long standing rivalries with specific other schools/teams. So while if you go to any game it will very much be like this the biggest of the year is the rivalry game. Its often the 'homecoming' game where alumni are especially welcome back and they put on the biggest show possible. Most divisions have about 10 teams but there is one that is always seen as the long standing riverlie. Another thing to consider is that professional teams can move around and are only in a few big cities really. So college teams early on filled that gap of providing a local team to follow. Even if people didn't go to the local school they might follow the team. Now they have moved into essentially the development teams for the professional leagues, the only sport that still has a rich development system out of college is baseball, again for historic reasons.

The stadium at the beginning is Michigan stadium....the biggest in college football....capacity of 107,601....😊

The "Native American" video is Florida State University. The team is named "Seminoles" which is a Native American tribe in Florida. The University partners with the tribe to provide social, education and medical services to the tribe and the tribe allows the University to use the image and name. The tribe approves the mascot costumes and the tribe Chief and Princess come to the University to crown the Homecoming Queen and King every year. I was lucky to go to Florida State University and it was a great experience.

Every college game is played on Saturday. So, imagine that all of these stadiums are filled at about the same time across the nation! ( shifted for time tone!

My team is Kstate which is in smaller conference but still get 55,000 fans to every game. Sold out for the past 20 years. And it’s in the middle of Kansas. 2 1/2 hrs from any big city. Stadium is in the middle of a wheat field.

If you want an amazing college football tradition, please do check out the Iowa Wave. After the first quarter of every home game, the whole crowd, team, everybody turns toward the children's hospital next to the stadium to wave to the kids. Bring tissues...it'll bring tears to your eyes how impactful it is to the kids fighting for their lives.

If you're trying to decided which game to attend, aim for a rival game.. each team has their own rival... for instants Arizona State University and University of Arizona are Rivals and their games are huge. We call it Duel in the Desert.

I think a live buffalo (bison) running out on the field to start games at Folsom Field in Boulder Colorado is one of the best traditions.

as far as how far you can hear it from- LSU's stadium has set off a nearby seismograph. the stadium was so raucous it showed up as an earthquake.

WHERE OPPONENTS DREAMS COME TO DIE #SaturdayNightInDeathValley

Alcohol sales inside stadiums during college football games was not allowed until recently when some schools lifted the ban. The decision is up to each school.

many of the stadiums they've shown are close to 100 years old. And a good number of them seat about 100,000. Of course, there have been quite a few million in improvements over the years. The atmosphere at LSU on a Saturday night is hard to duplicate. Wisconsin had the tradition of playing "Jump Around" between the 3rd and 4th quarters. The entire stadium sways. The site of Wisconsin's stadium (Camp Randall) dates back to it's days as a US Civil War (1860's) training location.

Before games all fans arrive hours early, park their car and tailgate which means cooking food and drinking heavily before going in the game. This happens at all pro and college football games. There are great videos on the best stadiums for best tailgates. You would love those videos.

You asked how far away they could be heard…..When they do the “Jump, Jump Around” song, it has literally been recorded on the earthquake Richter scale

I went to a USC vs UCLA Baseball game. They have an infamous cross-town rivalry. Obviously, it doesn't compare in size or energy to a Football Game. But the high level of trash talk between fans & opposing teams might be worth a look if baseball is in season. The smaller crowds are intimate allowing people to hear each other & visiting teams are usually in state or relatively short travel so Friends & Family of the visiting team might have a large presence even at an away game. Most of the time the insults are nasty but some can be very clever & well-timed. I've seen umpires toss rowdy fans, I've seen players go into the stands to fight & probably the funniest is parents from opposing teams and parents from the home team get into it. My brother played for San Diego State against Hawaii in Hawaii and the fans knew personal stuff including our mom's name. I'm amazed it doesn't come to blows more often.

The University of Tennessee was the one that tore the goal post down when they played the University of Alabama, which they hadn't beaten in 14 years.

College football is so big in America, there is a show every Saturday morning during the college football season on ESPN called “College Gameday” where the crew goes to the biggest game of the week and they do the show at the campus where the game of the week is played. Definitely should check out Lee Corso’s best headgear moments, that’s what everybody waits for when College Gameday is on lol

Most cover their eyes, at the sight of obvious elder abuse.

The Jacksonville Jaguars now have an NFL home game each season in the UK. Last year, there were 4 games in the UK and 2 in Germany. They all looked like packed houses to me on TV. BTW, one of the teams you called Texas was Texas A&M and another one you thought was Texas was actually Alabama. ROLL TIDE!

The very first one is Michigan stadium that can hold up to 110,000 people. The biggest stadium in the US. Also called the big house.

Tearing down the goal posts happens when a lower tier team has for example, a #1 ranked team comes in and it's literally expected to be a massacre, every now and again, the lower tier team pulls off an improbable upset and it's customary for the fans to tear down the goalposts in celebration.

Nashville Tennessee is music city and the home of country music now. The country clip on here was at Alabama. All of the South is big on country music.

6:04 welcome to my alma mater, University of South Carolina Gamecocks 🤙🏻🐓 (they chant USC during the beat drop). they also play 2001 Space Odyssey for the entrance then Sandstorm right before kickoff.

Hello from America 🇺🇸

The total attendance at all college football games played on the first game of the season has to be ridiculous

Florida State University vs Georgia Tech will be playing in Ireland August 24th if you guys want to see a college game up close.

The team you saw where you first said it sounded country was Alabama's stadium. They were playing Dixieland Delight by the band Alabama, but the fans add they're own lyrics at the end "Fuck Auburn, and Tennessee, and LSU too!"

Each University has their own entrance song. Some have exit songs if playing at away games.

Nothing beats the atmosphere of a big college football game

You guys can catch Florida State (the native team with the fire stick thing) versus Georgia Tech in Dublin, at Aviva Stadium on August 24th, 2024. Last year, or maybe the prior year, the credit card machines broke, so they gave out beer for free. With any luck, it will happen again. The pictures of blokes with one free beer in each hand, were hilarious.

Darude - Sandstorm, that rave music from Finland!

Crazy how it is on par with world cup and this is just a regular Saturday night

The University of South Carolina where Sandstorm is played and the light show is incredible!! Come to America in the fall and I’ll take you to a night game in Columbia. You’ll LOVE the atmosphere!! 🤙

LSU Stadium (purple and gold) is called death valley. My alma mater. Tailgating cant be beat there imo

When I was in college and we tore the goal post down there was a bar about 1.5 miles away that offered free beer for 1 hour if we got the goal post all the way there. We then cut it in to about 1 foot pieces to take home as a keep sake.

Nothing compares to College Football. Tailgating before the game is Unbelievable.

American football is a combination of a war and a chess match.

The capacity at Michigan stadium (Mr Brightside) is 107,601. The average attendance for games is 110,000 tho. It's the 3rd biggest stadium in the world with one in N.Korea and India having #1 and #2. Several college stadiums are around 100,000. Most NFL stadiums are 10x nicer, but only seat around 60,000.

In America each State is like it's own Country, So that's why College Football is so Big ! You need to Look into High School Football, It's also Very Popular

What you see on this video is a college football(American style) tradition where a lesser team at their home field upset a better team, especially if that team they just beat was a Nationally ranked in the top 25 team, which mean after the game the ESPN net work will broadcast the highlights of this game across the country to give this underdog school national exposure.

pro teams can sometimes move cities, the players move around, college is for life, once you are born, bred, raised, schooled there, it is a fraternity forever

The first one that you thought was country was the University of Alabama (The Crimson Tide) The second one is the LSU Tigers, Louisiana State.
