Year built: 1939Location: Auburn, AlabamaLocation: Auburn, AlabamaHonestly, Texas A&M’s 2025 football schedule feels like staring down the barrel of a loaded shotgun. Starting off, they’ve got that tricky opener against UTSA, which might catch some off guard — it’s no stroll in the park. Then, just when you think you’ve caught your breath, bam! Week 3 hits with a daunting road game at Notre Dame’s cavernous South Bend fortress. Once SEC clashes roll around, the real pressure cooker kicks in; those late-October and November battles will shape the Aggies’ destiny in a way few other moments can. It’s not merely about surviving; it’s about thriving against titans like LSU, Missouri, Arkansas, and Texas on the road, while also welcoming South Carolina and Florida at Kyle Field — where coach Mike Elko is banking on a packed house to tip the scales. Speaking of scales, the SEC’s stadiums are a spectacle in themselves, with half a dozen boasting capacities north of 80,000, including five that break the 100,000 mark. This isn’t just college football — it’s a gladiatorial arena where home-field advantage means everything. And let’s not forget, the SEC stands uncontested as the toughest conference, with the Big Ten trailing behind, and the Big 12 and ACC playing catch-up. With kickoff against UTSA looming on August 30, here’s a deep dive into where all 16 SEC stadiums stack up from the cozy to the colossal. LEARN MORECapacity: 100,119Capacity: 62,621
