Here are my votes for the top three. Nice looking stadiums. I would love to visit them all.
1. Kenan Stadium (North Carolina)
2. Bobby Dodd Stadium (Georgia Tech)
3. Doak Campbell Stadium (Florida State)

"A team with something to play for is dangerous, but a team with someone to play for is unstoppable..." Arkansas OL Brey Cook quote following the death of teammate Garrett Uekman (Nov. 2011).
The problem is...the pictures don't tell the story...
1...Doak Campbell...if you haven't seen it up close, well...
2...Kenan...It's a pretty blue (actually blue and aluminum with the empty seats)
3...Clemson...bad picture..but Clemson's stands tower up off the field much steeper than other ACC stadiums giving Death Valley an acoustical signature of its own.
And if someone voted Bobby Dodd, they either are a GT fan or haven't visited ACC stadiums.

LAST place I would watch a game...It's TOO flat.
Scott Stadium (UVA)
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.
The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.
See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

Only one ACC stadium made top ten in US College Stadiums...

I have been to Wake, GT, NC, Miami, Clemson, NC State, VT...haven't yet made it up to Boston or to Maryland...but Noles who have been there say that Boston sucks compared to VT's stadium...

Orange Bowl?...Now I am going to howl...the Orange Bowl is a dump located in a near ghetto and has not been maintained since the Dolphins left for Joe Robbie Stadium. It has peeling paint, signs of deteriation everywhere, and smells of spilled beer and stale urine.
Historic? yeah...but the rickety old dump is still a dump of a stadium..if you want to tailgate, you can hang out under the interstate with the homeless bums. Most of us have to pay street hoodlums $30 bucks to "watch" our cars during the game...
What a laugh! thanks.

2006 - Best College Football Stadiums
Determined by the quality of team, tailgating,
history, fans, and sportsmanship
How does this criteria have anything to do with the stadium?????

I think the setting around Lane Stadium is as pretty as any in football. My picks were based on the stadiums alone.
If I were to put the surroundings in order then it would be . VT, Wake, and NC. Most of ACC country is very pretty country.

Well...at least they have criteria...we have folks voting for dilapidated dumps like the Orange Bowl and glorified high school stadiums like Bobby Dodd based on a 2" X 3" fuzzy aerial shot...and most who vote have never seen the stadium...
“If short hair and good manners won football games, Army and Navy would play for the national championship every year.”
I guess a medical professional can tell the difference between the two smells...I am more challenged.
My friends with a more educated nose tell me that the Orange Bowl has a primary smell of rancid beer overlayed with the cloying sweetish sour smell of urine.....
They say, "Imagine a drunk tank if no one disinfecyted it for years".
