The folks at Athlon Sports seem to know what they are talking about when it comes to the Top Stadiums in the Pac 12.

Here’s what they say about the Ducks:

"There is a long list of players who have claimed they’ve never heard a louder atmosphere than the Ducks’ home building. Tales of the tunnel shaking in the pre-game ceremonies only add to the already amazing Saturday experience despite a smaller capacity. Smooth design lines, a beautiful setting, signature, two-tone green field turf and loads of backing from Nike money make Oregon’s home stadium one of the nation’s top venues. In the friendly confines of Thomas J. Autzen Stadium, the Ducks were 26-2 under Chip Kelly in his four seasons."

Husky Stadium, The Rose Bowl, Los Angeles Coliseum, and Memorial Stadium are the only places in the Pac 12 that can pack in more fans that Autzen.
