Penn State is the same way. Beaver Stadium is basically an erector set that they just kept kind of building onto.
I've been to Neyland Stadium in Knoxville. It's as bad as Ohio Stadium. The upper bowl essentially has a permanent version of portajohns as restrooms that they just dropped into the middle of an already narrow concourse.
The only two I've been to that I can say are really, really nice stadiums are Notre Dame and Clemson. It is my understanding that some of the schools in the south (Bama, LSU, Georgia, Clemson, etc.) do more to modernize and upgrade them than schools in the north. Like at Clemson, you don't have near the issues of movement around the stadium that you do at OSU.
I've been to Lane Stadium in Blacksburg. Outside of it is phenomenal. The limestone construction is gorgeous. You get inside and it's falling apart. Pitt gets a ton of flack for their stadium arrangement with the Steelers. But every time I visit another college stadium it just reinforces to me more that I like to attend games where I have legitimate security systems to enter the stadium, spacious concourses, bathrooms where you aren't standing at a prison urinal (Ohio State), and just better mobility pathways through the stadium. I understand the "experience" that many believe they get at those stadiums, but man they are just awful.
