Especially questionable because the criteria seem to be all over the place. For the most part, the focus is on the design characteristics of the buildings, but then they throw in things like a team's record there as an example of how loud the place is.

It may be a dome but the Carrier Dome sure is loud with 30,000 people hollering. And what about Morgantown?
Psh. Whatever.

I can tell you that the O'Dome here is G'ville is a bit overrated right now. As much as I hate to admit it, there are too many fair weather Gator fans. I guess in a a sense, we got spoiled with the successes or our teams some 4 or 5 years ago. I guess some of that is to be expected when you win back to back National Championships, but still. For whatever reason, we haven't packed the place and haven't been as loud these past several years. The design of the Dome allows us to certainly regain our volume and edge, but right now, I just don't see it. Thompson-Boling in Knoxville is pretty loud when it gets rockin'. Also, when they are putting out a quality product, Arkansas and UNLV have that reputation as well.
