The Patriot League is tough
For a big game I think Lehigh has the best atmosphere and it's really not close imo.
Colgate is easily the toughest place to play the last 4 weeks of the year due to the weather in Hamilton, NY. Otherwise, there's nothing really intimidating about Andy Kerr Stadium.
Temple B.B.A., DePaul M.Ed., Kansas State Ph.D. (in progress) & Lehigh Blood! Go Mountain Hawks!
Patriot League - Fordham.

For this Big Sky guy, you always have to be concerned about Montana. Big, rude crowd is a given. But the altitude at Flagstaff, NAU, screws things up on a couple of fronts:1) its harder to catch a breath, 2) punt, kickoff and field goals are all out of scale. The ball flys forever at that altitude and in a dome.
Apparently Rhodes Stadium. We've only won 2 conference games there in 5 years...

Several schools in The SWAC have great game day atmospheres but the hardest place to go get a win would be Robinson Stadium home of Grambling State. From 1999-2011 Grambling only loss 8 home games. They were a train wreck in 2012 and 2013 but since then they've only lost twice at home(Alabama State 2014, Bethune Cookman 2015). Grambling has some pretty rowdy fans that make Robinson Stadium hell on opponents. The GSU chant right after the team enters the field is electric to say the least.

In the NSIC I would say UMD. Two national titles, some long playoff runs, pretty good crowds and atmosphere, and Arctic tundra cold in the post season.
