When sharky99 and I went to a USC/Notre Dame game a couple years ago we each paid $80 to stay in a motel and paid $5 to take the train up to the game. It was a great atmosphere to be on campus just before the game to see all the tents on the lawns and people partying.
However, it didn't compare to Lincoln on a Husker home game day. The atmosphere inside the stadium is electric. Everywhere you look you see a sea of red and white. The stadium has been sold out every game since 1963.
Depends on the schools. Some college teams/games are much better experience than NFL. You have a much better chance of picking up a young hottie in a college game than NFL. Most women/girls who attend NFL games are usually taken and they come with their bf/spouse. But in college shit ton of single girls attend with their friends and they are out there to have fun and show off more than to watch the game.
Just went to my first U.S. college game yesterday at Notre Dame.
The entire experience was pretty overwhelming. The campus was incredible. Huge for a school whom we were told had about 8000 students. I'm not catholic, or religious at all for that matter, but going into the basillica was amazing.
What really surprised me was how NICE the staff all over campus treats visitors. Amazing.
As for the game...it was fun. But the campus visit was what will stand out.

Yeah, that Cleveland vs. Jacksonville match up sounds awesome!
Hell, even a dud of a game like last nights Tennessee vs. Utah State game had the full game college experience going (if you watched it, you know what I'm talking about).
Sure, Miami of Ohio vs. Central Michigan may not be the best game experience ever....but there are no $300 tickets to that game either (and there are to the Cleveland/Jax game).
Big Time SEC games are amazing...even if it's not one of the traditional powers (Bama, Auburn, Florida, etc). The atmosphere is out of control. Every single play has tension.
