I was at the 2005 Florida game. Loudest game I've ever been to. The 89 yard pass from Croyle to Prothro on the first play was the loudest eruption I've ever heard.


If Prothro's punt return wasn't called back, I was sure part of the stadium was coming down.

Oct. 8 1988, the absolute loudest i have ever heard Death Valley. There might have been a louder game since then, but I was not at it.

These are likely favorites but from my days as a student, I recall 2004 LSU being an exceptionally loud game start to finish.

'05 vs UF in Spurrier's first year was pretty awesome, even if it was a noon game. It got loud and intense there that day, even if the game was never particularly close.

2010 Alabama game was loud, particularly for a day game. Strangely, it was as if everyone in the stadium believed USC was going to win that day.

The 2006 UF/USC game in BHG was insanity. When Jarvis Moss blocked the second FG, I thought the stadium was going to collapse.

In the late 1990s, Mississippi State was continually recognized as one of the toughest road venues in the SEC and the nation. A near decade of losing changed that, but in 2014, a renovated stadium and a rise to the No. 1 ranking in the nation changed that.

Nick Marshall certainly looked rattled by our crowd.

As an LSU student, I remember 2012 USCe and it was an amazing atmosphere. But personally, even though we lost, 2012 Bama game was an absolute monster. My friends and I still talk about the atmosphere at that game. It was electric.

I think technically the loudest Kyle Field has ever gotten was last year during the Rice game. During the blocked kick it was so noisy it made me dizzy, an experience I have never had at Kyle.

It makes sense as we did a lot of work on the stadium to allow for maximum noise and sadly enough that blocked kick was maybe the most the home crowd got to get into a game all season. I am looking forward to some future games at Kyle that are like that most of the game, it should easily top everything we have done.

Prior to our renovations Kyle just never got that loud because the design let all the sound out. Aggies remember individual games where the crowd did make a difference or the environment was electric, and I have experienced that and it was great. But that Rice game was the first time the noise was so great it was overwhelming, like we you sit up high in the Superdome during a close Falcons game.

Is Kyle field built more vertically or horizontally? I know TS is built more vertically which traps sound, but I was curious how Kyle Field is going to be once it is rebuilt. The majority of my friends from high school are aggies and they always talk about kyle field. But one of my aggie friends came up to see the 2012 Lsu v. Bama game and he said he had never heard something that loud.

Even though I hate atm (growing up in Texas as a longhorn fan), I am glad they joined the SEC. Makes for plenty of banter between my friends and I.

If the commentators can still talk over the crowd it's not that loud.


bullshite response as I have never in my 4 decades of life have seen ANY sporting event on TV where a crowd noise was over the commentators. You though hate Mizzou so have to chime in. Faurot is admittedlynot as loud as a lot of stadiums, Being a Bowl shape and quite low the sound does just not stay in the stadium. A also hurt that it is not totally enclosed with the Hill side.

It was more horizontal but we make it more vertical. Plus we closed it in an added awnings. That helped the noise levels a lot.

I wonder how much the new west side is going to make a difference. It has an awning and it's noticeably closer to the field. At a certain point it won't matter, I just want it to translate in to something on the field. Sumlin's home results have been poor.

Me too. It will be less people than last year, but that is the side that yells the least anyway. I expect eventually we will have a big game at home that we are close in late, which will be our new high water mark for noise.

We didn't build that stadium just for Sumlin. Given how attendance is declining in college football as a whole this thing might be as is for 30+ years. If Sumlin doesn't win there maybe eventually someone will take advantage of it.
