I know Death Valley has been that for many many years to opponents of the Bayou Bengals but Bama is just smacking people around and not breaking a sweat.

Depends on how the game starts, honestly.

92,000 people barely disrupt traffic in Baton Rouge, let alone opposing college football teams.

Recently it has helped a lot, but that has more to do with LSU being a very good team. Historically, Bama has done very well in BR.

This. Plus CNS has his team playing like a well oiled machine right now. But LSU could be the wrench thrown into the gears of Bama's well oiled machine. Should be another great game.

LSU fans will eat their own. If LSU starts fricking up, the crowd will be the best friend Bama could have.

Death Valley will certainly help LSU against Alabama. The question of how much it hard to determine. Sure Alabama has played in hostile territory like Missouri and Arkansas. Both those games were different because either the weather or star player was out. The inevitable was understood and I imagine the crowd wasn't as into it normally.
I can't think of Alabamas other road game. I don't count the neutral site game as a road game.
Basically what I am saying is Alabama has not faced as tough of a crowd as they will at LSU. So I expect it to affect them to there may be a timeout or two spent that otherwise wouldn't and a false start ir delay of game or two. The only thing that will be hard to be determined is how many mix ups with happen on audibles and if that will result in turnovers.
In sum I say it will help LSU definitely stay in the whole game and truly test Alabamas true self.

Not anywhere close to what LSU fans like to think. The game will be won by who makes the most plays, no matter how loud a bunch of drunks yell.

Bamas not use to home field advantage because they don't have 1. They think shaking a pom pom will get their team pumped. Welcome to Death Valley

Tide lost their last game in Tiger Stadium.
