People aren’t talking enough about this. For decades they’ve played in Lawrence or Waco or Lubbock for 35-50k with tons of your fans there
They are in for an awakening
It's been talked about ad nauseam. Crowd size is meaningful but not as big of a deal as it's made out to be. I've been to a ton of college games in about 18 stadiums (including Alabama/LSU at Tiger Stadium) and the craziest crowd I ever experienced was in Lubbock in 2008 and it was like 50,000 people. We handled the 100,000 person crowd at Bama just fine. I know games at Jordan-Hare and Death Valley will be another animal but we're well aware.

My take on this isn't intimidation of opposing teams by crowd size, it's fan support.
No conference has such driven fan support as the SEC. It's pressure from the fans that drive the programs to be as great as they are.
