death valley at night vs bama = legit one of the best crowds (its that feeling of desperation against a superior bama)

kyle field vs most sec teams = legit one of the best crowds (they have that overall desperation that death valley once had when i going there in the late 70's, 80' and 90's before we won some 'ships)

all that to say, bryant denny isn't known for being extremely raucous, i've been 3 times, but mad kudos to bama fans for having the success they have, and still showing up in numbers and enthusiasm. death valley is usually dead unless is bama, or a good auburn or florida or uga.

Those games are lit. When it’s a Top 5 or 10 team coming in. And you get the old crowd off their feet for the majority of the game. That’s good football.

We have a lot of older fans who seem hard to impress But for the most part, when we play the SEC, most stand the whole time and cheer loud. I haven't seen anyone act ugly to opposing fans (except the random video clip of a wild Alabama woman jumping on a mouthy fan)

Fair take. I freaking hate it that A&M always seems to get a night game at DV.

FWIW, the A&M/Texas game at Kyle next year MUST be a night game as it will be the most insane environment ever devised for a football game. Imagine the Iron Bowl after taking a 13 year break. I don't know that there has ever been a situation like it.
