The college football season is in full swing as the calendar flips to Week 3. The early portion of the regular season has seen multiple shocking upsets leading to a major shakeup in the latest rendition of the AP Top 25 Poll.
Perhaps more than any other sport, playing in front of a raucous home crowd provides a significant advantage in college football. Take a look at the top four stadiums that could make it difficult for the visiting team in Week 3 below.
Top four college football stadiums that could give visiting teams a hard time in Week 3
#1 Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium
The Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium has been home to the No. 2-ranked Texas Longhorns since 1924.
The stadium, which houses 100,119 fans, will host their Week 3 matchup with the UTSA Roadrunners. Expect the building to be filled with loud fans to make life difficult for the visitors.
#2 Faurot Field at Memorial Stadium
Faurot Field at Memorial Stadium has been the No. 6-ranked Missouri Tigers home since 1926.
It houses 62,621 and will likely be at full capacity as the No. 24-ranked Boston College Eagles come to town. While the visitors have started the season strong, they could be in for a long afternoon on Saturday.
#3 Neyland Stadium
The No. 7-ranked Tennessee Volunteers have called Neyland Stadium home since 1921.
It has a capacity of 101,915 fans, who should be very loud when the Kent State Golden Flashes come to town. The visitors have struggled tremendously in the early portion of the season and things only figure to get more challenging, as they face their toughest matchup thus far.
#4 Hard Rock Stadium
The No.10-ranked Miami (FL) Hurricanes have played at Hard Rock Stadium since 2008.
The stadium has a capacity of 64,767 and should cause problems for the Ball State Cardinals. While the visitors have gotten off to a 1-0 start, they struggled against an FCS opponent at home. They will be in for a much more difficult task in Week 3.
