Admittedly, Tiger Stadium is a great venue to watch a college football game. But, what I find laughable is when LSU fans act like it's this vaunted, legendary site. They can't accept the fact that prior to 2003, Tiger Stadium barely registered in the consciousness of the average football fan. Prior to then, if you asked the average fan the toughest places to play, TS would have barely received a mention.

The opinions of fans don't matter. It's the opinion of the people playing and coaching the game in the stadium that does.

I believe your own Bear Bryant compared Death Valley to the inside of a drum.

While I don't think it will affect this game, I do know a lot of people are downplaying how a night game in Tiger Stadium can affect other teams. I just think Saban instills so much discipline in his players that we won't get the back to back false starts like against lesser opponents. They will be very composed in this game. We can only hope our players go out and play the game of their lives.
