One local legend suggests that a few years later, LSU began to refer to Tiger Stadium as “Deaf Valley” as a way to differentiate between the Tigers of Clemson, but eventually shifted into “Death Valley” after sports writers and opposing fans from other parts of the country confused the thick Southern accent locals used.
No one has any good info on it. Hence the use of the word legend.
I'd always heard it was sportswriters who coined it. It was no effort of the university or fans.
But hell, Ole Miss fans want us to believe their name came from a train. Lol.

Only the ignorant (which is the vast majority) LSU fans believe they started the term "Death Valley" before Clemson did.
You tiger baws stole the name and it's hilarious to see most of you not have a clue.
