The 2025 Big 12 football season draws closer and closer. A little over two months remain before the college football season kicks off in Dublin, Ireland, with Iowa State vs. Kansas State on Saturday, August 23.
While this offseason has been less hectic from a conference realignment standpoint, we are all still getting used to having a 16-team Big 12 with the 2024 additions of Colorado, Utah, Arizona State and Arizona.
The various conference dynamics are still being determined, with certain rivalries forming and others reignited from previous conference ties.
New identities, play-styles and histories are now a part of the Big 12. College football is known for its grand cathedrals, and these identities encompass each team’s venue and gameday experiences. With one season of games now behind us, it’s a good time to update our Big 12 stadium rankings.
There are a ton of ways to rank the greatness of a stadium. Huge attendance numbers, home-field atmosphere, traditions, beautiful landscapes, and, of course, looks. We will use a combination of each to determine our rankings, with the tiebreaker, if any, being team play.
Here’s a ranking of the Big 12 football stadiums from worst to first:
16. FBC Mortgage Stadium (UCF)
Capacity: 44,206
Opened: 2007
UCF’s home stadium looks like an oversized high school venue, and the atmosphere never seems to be on par with the other great stadiums in college football.
15. Arizona Stadium (Arizona)
Capacity: 50,782
Opened: 1929
Arizona Stadium is definitely the worst venue of the former Pac-12 schools. It is bland, and I am not a big fan of the upper sections that seem to blend in with the lower levels. The Wildcats are also not a good team, so the atmosphere is severely lacking.
14. David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium (Kansas)
Capacity: TBA (47,233 before recent renovations)
Opened: 1921
