"6. NC State – Carter-Finely Stadium has recently emerged as one of the premier football facilities in the south. Upgrades to the Murphy Center, a stunning athletic building located in the south endzone, have been the focal point of facility expansion and has in many ways typified NC State’s recent rise nationally. With the aforementioned Murphy Center earning high praise and recent improvements to the press box and luxury suites being implemented, Carter-Finely now has stately feel to it, much more so than it did in years past. Wolfpack fans don’t fit the typical Carolina mold. They aren’t quiet, aren’t proper and tailgate with reckless abandon. Safe to say, Raleigh can be a hostile place to play if the circumstances insist. State fans show up in droves hours before sunrise for big games, flooding the vast area around the stadium with hopes of claiming the prime spots. The scene close to kickoff quickly turns into a sea of red, both outside the stadium and in it. Though the venue itself holds just under 60,000, Carter-Finely routinely outdoes itself, serving as an intimidating atmosphere for opponents and an emotional sparkplug for the home team. Despite its modest capacity, few stadiums in the conference get louder. State fans hold nothing back.

"12. Duke – The scene at Wallace-Wade Stadium has been described as depressing, disheartening and dull. With attendance often struggling to peak at 20,000, and sometimes flirting with the double-digit thousand mark for low-profile outings, home games in Durham just don’t have a big-time college football feel right now. The high point for Wallace Wade Stadium is often when North Carolina or NC State come to town – and bring thousands of fans with them. The venue itself actually has some history, having hosted the Rose Bowl and been the home to seventeen conference championship teams. Going to a game now, you wouldn’t be able to tell. "
