I've been to them all and I went with Penn State. The worst problem is the small number of entrance gates (they have about the same number of gates as TSUN's place has men's rooms). 
It's amazing that TSUN's place held more people than Beaver Stadium last year, which looks huge compared to TSUN's place sitting in the somewhat natural bowl. And I'm factoring in the sqeezed-in seats up north. 
I said last year since the renovations will reduce TSUN's capacaity to 106,201 (less than Beaver Stadium) until they are complete in 2010. Then TSUN may again have the largest stadium.
I would have voted Wiscy's Camp Randall second after Penn State.

Penn State's stadium an awful building. Scaffolding with seats, I'm glad we play them at night.
PS student section is loud during the first quarter, then pass out or go back to their tailgate. Nice town, but a terrible stadium.
Michigan State has a good looking stadium, I've never been there on game day.
The Metrodome looks bad on TV, looks worse in HD.

Indiana. Cheap, plentiful tickets and a short drive from Ohio.
There's also the matter of the obscene numbers OSU puts up on IU. Lydell Ross' numbers, Ted Ginn finally throwing a pass (albeit at home, but the pattern works), Ted Ginn housing two returns including his greatest ever (in skill), imo (KR).

I was at that game...we were so [censored]ed when the one got called back. 
IU is a good time as it's practically a home game. Bloomington is a nice little college town with some good restaurants and bars.
